LED lights
I have a 2013 3402RL with the 921 incandescent lights and want to replace with LEDs. Does anyone have a recommendation of how many lums and type (natural, cool, warm) and above all the cheapest route to buy.

Unfortunately we had a great outlet available to us for a number of years when a member of the forum had a business selling them. Some here have been successful finding good deals on ebay and elsewhere. These on Amazon look similar, but due to the low price I'd get a couple and try them first. Some LED's interfere with TV's etc. Here's the link: http://www.amazon.com/42-SMD-Replace...s=921+led+bulb

When I had my 2012 3402RL I replaced EVERY light with LED even the Ceiling lights and under the Cabinets I converted to LED Puck lights(ALOT of work but nice!), I started with the 921's over the Kitchen Island and bedroom because they were getting so Hot they were burning the fixtures(kinda Scary) I just bought all mine on E Bay ,there are Tons of them for sale just stay away from the real cheap one's and read the feedback from buyers and you will get a good idea if they good one's,as far as Lumens for the 921's I think they were 250 but I just compared a bunch of them on e bay and got the Highest Lumen ones and also you will see pics of what color they are,so Anyway that's what I did just go to Ebay Motors /parts and Assc/Rv's and type in 921 LED and a Boatload of choices come up and The LED's I bought never interfered with TV reception etc...

More than likely you will want warm light temperatures for your leds and this means a temp range of 2700-3200 kelvin. I find 3000-3100k most pleasing. If it isn't labelled, it is probably 5000k and will be a blueish white. John

I know this is an old thread but I replaced all my incandescents with leds from m4products. I did a lot of research but in the end you get what you pay for. These are high quality led's at a reasonable price and outstanding quality. What I did is used the natural white color temperature LED's in the overhead fixtures on the ceiling and then the warm whites under the cabinets, accent lighting and reading lights as well as over the dinette. That is the best of both worlds. When just relaxing watching tv or eating the warm white lights produce the ambiance that you want. When you need full lighting when you first come in at night or when your cleaning or doing detail work the natural white bulbs are much brighter than what were previously in the overheads.

I went with EEP
Bought:
--wedge base EEP-12-W150-WR about 150 lumens and 2700K or warm white
--Tower two contacts, twin pin bayonet EEP -12-W250-B15D about 250 Lumens and 2700K or warm white.
I first found them at Hutsells Apache Junction RV in Apache Junction.
They brightened up the trailer a lot and it's a nice light.
Unfortunately the last time I looked EEP has not filled in photos of all the different types when they updated the site sometime last year.. I was lucky as I'd done that the previous year on the older site.

I have an older trailer but I think the bulbs will be the same.

Another great source for led retrofit bulbs is http://www.m4products.com/
We have been well pleased with their products.
One more order and we will have all changed to LED's.
