Replace RV halogen/incandescent lights with LEDs

[Kevin D Pem]

Keep in mind that many of the newer LED fixtures will have to be completely replaced when the lights go out.

Two ways to take that statement! I took the most radical of those two ways!!!

I had no interest in replacing all the little lights inside my daughter's truck camper (so many lights in such a little space!) and we were on a deadline for leaving on a long trip. So they are still the original RV light housings with LED bulbs. Also replaced all the dim outside bulbs with LEDs.

I prefer the "warm" LEDs. Nice that they have managed to get rid of the flicker some used to have. LEDs used to give me bad headaches.

My bus has never had an RV light in it. All residential lights running on dedicated inverters. Until my inverters filled with dust during two back to back day long dust storms (I hate the desert). Now they run off straight AC. Currently the only 12vDC "RV" thing I have is the marine water pump. I turned off the 12vDC grey water macerator and replumbed the grey water because I got tired of cleaning long hair out of the macerator.

as a conspiracy theorist I still expect the lights to go out!!! Thing is I don't think of myself as one.
That is what I wanted clarity on!!!

People are constantly melting their light covers with these old filament bulbs. The lights are running on 12Vs right? so what I've been telling them is to search for Antline 1156 1141 1003 BA155 LED bulbs on amazon. Should be a one to one replacement, or the worst case is you have to buy the socket as well. roadtrekParts - Etsy
