Beautiful bright light and they got here in 9 days. I liked them so much I just ordered another 24. You may need a different bulb so be careful and buy the ones with the 38 SMD in them so they are as bright.

Those LED at 120 lm and 5000 K are dimmer and colder/bluer than the original incandescent lamps which where probably 260 lm and 2800 K. Those LED are less than half the lumen (lm) or light output of your originals.
My Command LED boards are 510 lm and are warm white. One Command LED puts out almost the same amount of light as two incandescent lamps. I prefer not to function in the dark.
I won't waste my money on those cheap ones. Specifications don't lie.
Even if you are on the right track, you'll get run over if you just sit there.

3200K is a warm white... 5000K and its a cool white....
and warm white is toward the red side of the color spectrum and cool white is toward the blue side of the color spectrum.
For comparison hold your arm under a cool white lamp and under a warm white lamp. Cool white makes people appear pale, sickly, and ghostly whereas warm white gives you a healthy, reddish, and robust appearance.

To each his own. I guarantee you it's not dark in my RV.... Just tried to help others out. Not everyone here can afford YOUR Command LED boards.

Isn't it amazing that in less than 2 pages of post, it turned into "My dogs better than your dog". Whether its brand of MH, brand of tires, types of oil, now LED lights?

Not meaning to criticize the ones you bought. I just feel it is important that people reading this know that all LEDs are not equal. The Command LED are not that expensive if you consider that one Command board has the same light output as 4.25 of the cheap eBay ones. $3.97 x 4.25 means that you are paying $16.87 for the same 510 lm. After the cheaper ones are replaced a few times they are actually more expensive than better ones to start with.
If you are happy with them that is all that matters but there are other options.
When visiting in a friends Casita last weekend he was showing me his LED replacements. When I showed him the brightness and color quality of the Command LED he was blown away. He now intends on replacing the LEDs he just bought with the Command product.
