I have posted this before, but just about everyone is intent on buying the cheap junk from Ebay.
If you want good LED lighting with the warm light, you will have to open the pocket book a little wider.
These are the best out there.

I bought the eBay 5 led 5050 and 13 led 5050 bulbs. Both of them are dimmer then the 921 incandescent bulbs. But the kids don't need bright lighting above the bunks or me and the wife above the bed. So using the cheap ebay bulbs aloud us to choose where we needed what lighting. And 40 led bulbs were about $35.

I recently watched this blog post video and found it helpful. There's a suggested retailer in the video. I have NO IDEA if these bulbs are any good...I haven't actually ordered anything from them yet. But the demonstration was helpful for me.

Switching to LED lights is definitely on my to-do list. Maybe this summer.

Thanks for sharing, Jason! I'm anxious to hear where you use them and how you like them since we have the same TT. Keep us posted!

Will do, I plan on replacing all the overhead double lights with these as they are directional and no light will be wasted pointing back at the fixture

I received and installed the LEDs I ordered off of EBay, about a week shipping, with white for the living area and warm for the bed & bath and couldn't be happier. The power usage is reduced so much that we no longer hear the annoying inverter, even with all the trailer lights on. Happy camper here!

Has anyone found the LED bulbs to be too dim in the main cabin area? I swapped my 921's this weekend and was pretty disappointed by the amount of light. It would have been fine for living but too dim for reading. The ebay store I bought them off is refunding me my money and sending me panels which are twice as large as the spade shaped ones I initially tried. I had a few round barrel shaped ones left over from the outside swap but didn't like the light projection inside.

I have no way to measure light output but I'll try to take some side by side pictures when I get the new ones.

I bought 3 different types of led lights. I left the 921 incandescent lights in a few locations that I wanted brighter. At our house it is very rare that we use bright main lighting. So I tried to put the led's in the locations that may be used more. The brighter bulbs are above the counter top and table.

I hate to keep harping on it but, like I have stated before.
If you want "good lights" you are going to have to quit buying that junk on Ebay.
Open your wallet a little wider, get them here,
http://commandelectronics.com/ and that will be the end of it.

Sure, they are more expensive, but just compare them to what you just spent for the camper and they won't look quite so bad.

I was considering these replacement bulbs:
http://www.amazon.com/GRV-24-3528-Su...X6BM73F2YDQY1E


Until I saw these:
http://www.amazon.com/GRV-24-5050-Su...BABTW2S90F73Y0

Difference is that the first one is a 1w and the second one is 3w. Some have said the 1w don't get very bright, well the 3w should correct that issue. Just that the 3w is only a 2 pack for over $12 each and the 1w is a 10 pack for $23. I don't know, maybe I'll buy a back of each and find out where to put them over time.

Does anyone have any experience with the 3w type?

The GRV-24-3528 bulbs look and work great super bright warm light is slightly cooler than the 921 bulbs, and just about as bright. They give off a more natural light, very similar to daylight. I like them

That's I go got from my dealer. And I will be replacing all bulbs in my 25RB. So apparently any dealer should be able to do bulb replacement with those numbers.

Well if these 1w bulbs are plenty bright I wonder how bright the 3w will be?
