The two big round security lights (one on each side of coach) are out. Anyone know what kind of bulbs they take? I'd rather not have to climb up there twice if I can avoid it.

Thanks!

joe

Joe, I don't know whether yours are the large round ones or the smaller oval shaped fixtures. If you have the round I would recommend changing them to LED. The current bulb is a 1149(?) or something like that. It is a bright high amp draw bulb, maybe about 1.8 amps. It has about a 480 lumens rating. The BA15 LED will fit. Order the Cool White at 420 lumens, It draws 0.4 amps. Heres a link LEDTrailerLights.com - RV LED interior ceiling light 1141 1156 warm white

You will note that they are currently out of stock until mid March. I bought one for my entrance light. Good delivery, honest company and works great. Thought you might like an alternate.

Peter

Yes, I do have the big round ones. Is that the same bulb as the smallish rectangular one by the door (entrance light?)? I think I need one of those too.

Joe, Yes it takes the same LED, the BA15. The standard bulbs are different only in wattage, the security lights being higher.
