Changing lights on the RV to LEDs

[eclipse1966]

just received my package today from Hong Kong/China. 20 LED # 906 and 10 LED # 1156 all for $35 delivered to my door. Took 13 days to get them. I will install them this weekend (906 for me and 1156 for father in law). Almost too cheap to be true.

I have used either in high mount stop lights in vehicles.

Same as a 194 peanut bulb but with a bigger head ( watts-brightness)

What type do you need I will be placing another order.

I will have to look when I get home from work in a couple days. Would save on shipping if we can get a group order.

It turns out I need led's to replace 1141 style bulbs. What have you been able to find and what kind of price are we talking? I'm thinking of doing the 4 in the bedroom first to see what kind of light I get out of them before I do the whole trailer.

That clown won't ship to Canada though. His bulbs look decent however.

I did find another guy on ebay for $10 a bulb but I want something in the 3000k light range to retain the warm white light instead of the blueish 6000K that many sell. Those are a little hard on the eyes after awhile I find.

I just want the power savings so if they happen to be on.

If anyone wants to experient with offshore LEDs from deal extreme, i have a bag full for trial. All im gonna say is you get what u pay for. Im betting that bulb will turn blue/ green/ yellow in a matter of hours. I bought a ch!t pile of a similar unit and thought i would surprize the wife while she was around the fire, by the time bed rolled around it looked like a disco club in our trailer and ended up changing them back at 3am when i couldna been doing something else.

I had a set of LED in my DRL's on my truck that did the disco thing after a few months as well.

I have 42 of those exact same bulbs in my toyhauler, and a bunch in my little work trailer, and so far no disco lights. Don't forget....puff puff pass.....the pass part is very important.

That tends to happen with LED's if the voltage drops to much. It all depends on the quality of light, but usually if a batter gets weak, they do all sorts of weird things.

The guy I bought my LED's from did tell me that white or "natural" light is the most expensive color for LED manufacturers to produce. Maybe somebody cut some corners?

I put the Rigid LED RV strips in this spring and so far so good, darn expensive, but a real nice light.
