porch light

I had wondered if the outdoor/porch light was left on would it melt or damage the lens, I have been looking for an led replacement, the bulb looks big enough to slow cook a 23 lb turkey. Enter Mr Senior Citizen. Donna and I did a 2 nighter at Local Hoosier National Forest, you guessed it, I left the outside light on all night. No damage, but the housing was warm to the touch. Also I have seen earlier posts on AC noise, I think ours is the 13,500 btu Dometic, the blower is noisy, but I don't know what is worse, constant blower noise with the thump when the compressor engages or let it cycle on or off. It was Hot Friday night 6/15 and we needed the air. That little AC will freeze you out.

When I was in AutoZone last week, I noticed they have started stocking a few LED bulbs - I think for around $17.  I didn't really stop & look but, it seems as though they had some of the large metal base bulbs (1157????).  No doubt, you've read the many posts on internet sources.

For what it is worth, our A/C does not "thump" when the compressor cycles.... Once the camper gets to temperature it seems to cycle on and off quite a bit, but no thumping.

Originally posted by The E Train Also, how do you get the cover off of the porch light? I looked, but it was not obvious and I don't want to break it.

there is a small indentation at the bottom of the lens.. flat blade screwdriver.. push up and out..

I wonder if the A/C "thump" is something (like the compressor) a little loose. I would be interested to hear if anyone with this issue ever had it checked out, or checked it out themselves.
