Well I received my order of the Chinese manufactured LED units 2 days ago and have started the transiton. Installed all of the "bulbs" and am now working on converting the floresent fixtures using the 36 panels. Put 6 panels into the floresent bathroom fixture and there should be no excuse of missing the loo! Unless you look at the light first! They are real bright and maybe too beight for the bathroom., but they work great. Discovered that I hadn't ordered a LED for one of my smaller bulbs (only one in trailer - inside step light) so I broke the glass on the bulb and soldered a LED push-in bulb into the base... and it worked! Someone noted earlier that they thought these led units may be polarity sensitive, and the are! So be aware, if they don't work when you first install them, you may have to "turn them around" so to reverse the polarity (the push-in bulbs anyways). So far all is much better than expected, and you can't beat the price.

Incidently, thank you to Netboy for the info and getting the thought process going. Also a note about operating these lights on a dimmer... they work! Thanks again. Troy

A home built rectangular oak box with a translucant lens and 3 or 4 24/50-50 panels would do nicely, I think.
If too bright, some say they're dimmable
NetBoy: We too, thank you for this thread. As with others, your thread with all it's informative posts, started my winter dulled brain into a higher gear.
I've ordered a small qty. of 48-3528's / 4x5(20) 5050's / 3x8(24)5050's to test brightness levels and try them in differing locations thru-out the trailer.

I found some on Amazon. Expensive, but I only need 3.
Or just replace the whole thing with a newer vanity that can replace bulbs.
Sorry, I couldn't make my links work.

Pretty hard to give advice without knowing what base your bulbs have.

and these are the lights I was thinking replacing with. Cheaper than those bulbs, I'm already getting some extra led lights for it, and updates my RV.
(BTW, Thank you Grillmeister! Now I know how to post my links. I tried the plain links before, but I got some smiley faces in the middle of the links )
