Topic: LED lights.....Posted: 16 Nov 2013 at 5:39pm |

You're welcome. I believe you will be satisfied with the product, we have logged quite a few hours on ours for the past 2 years. They have gone through some abuse as well as one time on a gravel/dirt/pot-holed laden detour in North Dakota one even came out, as well as the lens, and was on the floor, under the sink (when I finally found it) Apparently I didn't have it plugged in properly like the others. I was surprised that after plugging it in it still lit and continues to light up as well as the other 10 inside the pod.

Nearly identical to what I posted in my last post EXCEPT be careful that the plug will fit in the receptacle , the one you posted doesn't appear to have the correct end.

Don't know a lot about LEDs, but trying to learn. Prices seem all over the place!
I came across these from a You-Tubed video. Any reason *not* to use something like this. Price is right! Thanks! fred

mtbmitch I know what you are saying about not enough clearance for the lens cover, first I used a 1 LED bulb in the side marker lights but was not really happy with the brightness. I finally changed out all of the side marker lights with a 12 led marker light. Goose

Ditto on Superbright. I used the warm white in the trailer except about the galley area.
Installed cool white lights in the galley area. Changed out all the exterior lights to led except 2 red side lights in which the lens and bulb did not have enough clearance. |

I got all of mine from Superbriteled.com and really happy with them.
I am not computer smart so I can not do links or anything like that. I used 194 LED 10 SMD LED Wedge Base in the Warm White, it puts out the same amount of light that the original bulbs do with the same color. This is a side mount disc type bulb. Above the bed I wanted a little less light so I used a couple of 5 led bulbs that I had picked up at a truck stop years ago, they are cool white in color. For the outside porch light I bought a 1156 LED single intensity 18 SMD LED tower bayonet base bulb in cool white, from superbriteled.com. They all have worked well so far. Goose PS. With Superbrite you can pick them up at their warehouse in Earth City, Mo. which is just outside of St Louis. |

These have been pretty good and for only 2.38/bulb a good value. Purchase 10 and get free
shipping, another good deal. Have had these for almost 2 years, no problems. We normally dry camp and it is good to know that you are using less battery running all your interior lights (if they are L.E.D.'s) than running only 1 of the stock bulbs that come with the pod. Warning - don't try to take the stock bulbs out if they have been on for very long, they will burn your fingers! http://www.ebay.com/itm/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170749061430 |

A bad day hunting/camping/fishing is better than a good day at work, especially in a a 2014 Rpod 177 :)
