Be careful. After spending lots of time on eBay I have come to the conclusion that most sellers lie like hell about the luminosity of their LED lamp's They'll sell four and total up the lumens for all four. I purchased a pair of not so inexpensive CREE 1156 lamps that are claimed to be 7 watts. At 12.24 volts, they consume .23 amperes. They are not bright, they are claimed to be 5500K and look closer to 7K.
I found at least I hope I found a way to possibly thwart some of the hucksterism, and that is to send a question to the vendor
"How many amperes EXACTLY does each lamp consume at 12.0 volts?"
If they don't know, the product is almost guaranteed to be garbage.
One Vendor replied "If this lamp, in your opinion, is not at least twice as bright as a new incandescent, I will refund your money". He got my business. But it wasn't an el-cheapo bulb, either.
