LED Lighting

Ok I have finally changed out all my interior lights in my class C to led. I did get the warm white ones as the DW did not like the blue tint of the others. I love them, as the bulbs are cool to the touch, and I know my batteries will last much longer when boon docking. I got the lamps from LEd trailer lights and they cost between ten and fifteen dollars each. I can even feel that the ambient temperature inside the rv has gone down with all the lights on. The project for Next weekend is two install the paddle fan in the bedroom

I plan on doing the same thing but over time due to the cost to change so many lights.

Buy more of the ebay LEDs than you need. They work well, but the quality is somewhat lacking. I've had one quit working and one that never worked -- out of the 16 I bought from 2 different sellers. I still find them a good value even figuring the adjusted cost. The double-sided tape quit from the heat of the light. I used the replacement strips from the 3M Command hooks and they are still in place.
