LED Interior Bulbs

[haste_maker]

Thinking about replacing the factory interior bulbs with LED's for better lighting, I have 2007 Allergo 32BA & need to hear from others that have done this & what should I buy & where....Thanks

I bought a couple sets of these lamps from Amazon. Replaced all the double-bulb interior ceiling lamps with these, and man, what a difference. Lower power consumption (of course), and it's no longer dingy and depressing inside. Much brighter outputs as well.

Bonus feature is that there's no polarity when hooking these up; any wire goes anywhere.

For the price I paid, won't be too sad if any die in a year or two. Cheap enough to replace if needed.

Be aware that some led's can interfere with OTA TV signals. It happened on our rig.

Yep. The previous owner installed one LED bulb in the front map light on the passenger side. That one bulb makes the radio staticky when turns on. I bought 2 new ones and the interference is gone. I'm guessing it was older LED technology?

I got some from Amazon in packs of 20. I needed 27 so have some extras for some burn out. So far none have.

I replaced most of mine from etraier.com. I replaced complete light for about 16 dollars each. Soft light completely happy.

My chepo amazon ones are going strong 4 years later? Yes, some are better then others, check the reviews before buying. I also have a mix of the yellow light and the daylight ones. Daylight over the kitchen area, all else are the yellow ones. Makes a difference when cooking and looking for stuff. I got the ones where all the leds face the same direction ( like someone above posted), gives more light. The other ones shine the light in all directions. So they shoot light upwards into the fixture.

You'll replace the CHEAP ones within a year. You'll get what you pay for. IMHO, eBay and Amazon are not the places to buy the China made products. Superbrightleds is highly recommended. You don't have to buy the most expensive, but stay away from the cheapo ****....Dennis

I like the daylight lighting led fixtures
The bluish cool lighting, well IMO kinda sucks
The warm white, meant to simulate incandescent bulbs, is too yellow, not white enough, not bright enough, warm white use 1/2 brightness you normally like, if looking for Mood Lighting

Well if you want to buy good (But Expensive) LED's ECO-LED at most RV dealers are great, but 20 bucks a pop..

IF you buy from any one line source (closer to 2 bucks or less a pop) buy a minimum amount take notes, if you like 'em buy more if you don't cross out that vendor or lamp.

SuperBrightLeds Is I think the name of one on line vendor who gets decent reviews... I've not purchased from them.

I use the brighter led bulbs, 3000k on the ceiling and a warmer 2700k led bulbs on the wall sconces. That way I have bright lights when needed and softer lights the rest of the time.

Every LED can be dimmed with a cheap voltage regulator. More efficient way is dimming through pwm.

LED lamps that use ballast resistors to control the current will be dimmable with a voltage regulator (or PWM dimmer). Those that use some sort of an active driver circuit very often won't dim with a voltage regulator, and may not work with a PWM dimmer either; the driver circuit will adjust for the changing input power, exactly as it's designed to do.

These are cheap PWM dimmers ive been using for about 5 years. Comes with a remote control which is awesome. The light in the picture is in my trailer!! Was a quick test setup. You can see it hanging there by the wires. Being lazy i just left it and laugh how it hasnt failed yet.
