Hot Interior Light

Just picked up our new 2013 Sunset 30 RK. Had light on over the couch and the converter was running went to turn light off very hot light. Was only light on. Plus any hints for better antenna.

The lights in my slide are very hot. Different bulbs I guess. I plan on going to all LED asap. Going to CW in Nashville soon and they are on my list.

The light fixture over the couch and dinette have 3 regular push in bulbs(same as rest of trailer) but the globe fixture has no way to let heat out as the glass is screwed tight to the base. Put leds in there and heat is almost non existant.

No need to buy the expensive LEDs from Camping world. I replaced every light in my RV for approx $60.
