"warm" light LED replacements?

The last place I would buy LEDs from is an RV dealer, they have the same products that I have bought on ebay. The only difference is the RV dealer is charging 10X the price.

I went to LEDs about 5 years ago, when my old eyes couldn't see to read with the 12V incandescent bulbs. I bought few on ebay to try and after the test batch I reorder enough to do the rest of the lights in our Airstream.

When we bought the "Brick", the first thing I did when we got it home was order LEDs for every light in the rig. Cost me about $20 to do what the dealer wanted $200 to do. None of them have failed to this point.

If you have the two light fixture with 1156 bulbs I would suggest these panels for $1.80.

Thanks for the info.

I replaced all mine (about 16) with warm ones from Ebay for a little over $2 each. Light isn't as bright as incandescent but adequate for me. They work better in the fixtures that have two bulbs, or one horizontal one. Several of mine were a spotlight-type reading light and the light doesn't come out the end as well.

Not sure why you would pay 4x the price for m4products.com LEDs as they are all made in China. Higher price does not necessarily mean higher quality. I've bought over 60 in the last 5 years and one did stop working and one blinks after several years of use in my RV which we use half of the year. They are all rated 10-30 volts which should handle any power surges on your 12V system.

Could you provide us with links where you have been buying them?

Our RV tech brought us samples of both the yellow and blue LEDs for us to view before we placed our order. In our case the yellow was slightly more yellow than the traditional bulbs.

Take a look at a Kelvin chart and decide what color/hue that you like the best and go for that. eBay and Amazon both sell inexpensive LED lighting solutions.

Yes... warm white/3000 temp on Ebay for less than $2.
