Help With Led Bulb Replacements
Help. Getting ready to leave on long vacation in a few weeks and would like to replace the bulbs in my 2011 Itasca Sunova with Led's to help battery life. I only have two 6v batteries, about 220 amps and will be camping for several nights in Canada w/o hookups. Want to minimize generator use and don't have time to research whether solar could work with my small battery power (and no room in compartment to add more).
Most of my bulbs are the miniature 194BP type in all my overhead lights and some side lamps inside. They are in middle of fixture, two for each and are only an inch apart. You need room to remove or put in socket, which fit quite tightly. Do most of the LED bulb made for this type of bulb work? Some say oversized and I suspect there is not enough room unless you only use one bulb? The Led's that are not oversized, are available but harder to find how much light they put out? We also need more common 1076 socket style and 1383 par type bulbs in a few reading light fixtures.
So looking for info from anyone who has successfully switched to led's with this type of 194 bulb with little clearance and where they got them or maybe a model number. The ones I saw at CW were 12.95 apiece plus tax. Don't need a $.79 bulb, but since I need at least 20 of these, don't want to spend more than $2-4, if I don't need to.
We normally use hookups, but want to boondoggle sometimes if we have enough battery power? Thanks in advance.
