LED Lighting

[Deleted member 13859]

I haven't got them installed in the van, but I use portable LED lamps at night for reading and general lighting. Saves the leisure battery, and provides excellent light.

yeah me too, cant afford the real one's on my pension, hahahaha

We have them in the mini spotlights, 6 of them and I hate the cold colour of them. I know that you can get warmer looking bulbs. Can anyone recommend which type and where to get them please?

Hi Phil,
I have recently replaced most of my bulbs with LEDs. They work fine and are not all that expensive if you shop around. The only problem I had was finding replacement G4 bulbs that aren't too big for some of my small spotlights.

Philips do the warmest halogen replacements. I have a pair of 7 watt ones, £30 each. They're similar to 35 watt halogens in terms of brightness.

I have been looking at this website, LED Strip Lighting | LED Strip Lights | 12v LED Lights | ULTRALEDS - by Ultra Leds U.K for replacing my bulbs with LED's, seems a bit pricey though compared to the ebay one's, are the ebay one's good quality (ie brightness and colour shade)

Same as Al n Sal moonstore on ebay under £15 the whole van converted, come from HK take nearly 2 wks to arrive but every bulb works and no probs whatsoever! Winter is coming and am sure to reap the benefits of low power consumption

Replaced all the 10 watt halogen capsule bulbs with these G4 24 SMD - Ebay
Delighted with the colour of the light, virtually the same as the halogens. Plus the 90% energy saving.

Been looking at the lights in the pictures done by Techno100, Does the white diffuser just unclip (havent taken them off before). Also where do you get the led bulb from, and does it just push in or does it need someone with a bit of knowledge to convert it? Really havent a clue, and dont want to start something cant finish.
