Glad they worked out for you!
A few things about these bulbs.
1) They get hot and the sticky tape on the back starts to warp
2)The seller deals with different manufacturers and the color can vary.
3) If you don't want to solder, you can do the lame thing I did. I switched
the adapter to the festoon end (The bulb comes with 3 adapters) and just
wedged it in my fixture. Works for now

Thanks!
Waiter, how much was the converter conversion?
-
Does being plugged in 24/7 and having a trickle charge decrease the life of the battery?
Anyone know how much electricity just the fridge uses? I have an older domestic brand one.
THanks!

I have a kill a watt power monitor between the shore power and my rv. Noticed that when I have nothing plugged in and no lights on, the monitor says that I'm using around 40 watts of power. Could this be solely the fridge or is there something I'm forgetting?
Thanks!

Tried a bunch of times to pull the table bar thing up in my "dinette" area, but no go. Is it permanent? If so, why?
You can see the tricky table and my floorplan in this photo

how do you think they get the interior walls of the four seasons to look like that? Seems like more than just paint.
-
That one is......interesting.

It's not parked for the winter, it's parked outside my house while I transition into fulltiming. I'm parked level so that the fridge is level. Sure wish I could level the fridge from inside.

After the first rain in my dolphin, I noticed that water pools on the roof. I can't imagine standing water is good for my roof. Any ideas on fixes (other than a cover or a squeegee) or is it not a big deal?
Thanks!

Those pics are awesome! Any one know of any other remodeled/updated toyhomes?
-
krilov...you said..."FYI, The bayonet base that comes with the bulbs are tiny. I didn't notice the measurements, when I first ordered."...do they work in the 1141 sockets OK, or do you have to install some other way??
Thanks, RVdaytrader
They don't have the same size base. It comes with the three attachment choices and I put a regular bulb on the right. See the pic below for size comparison.
-
WOW! That looks AWESOME! How long did it take?
-
Oh man, it's really starting to come together! Can't wait to see it when your done. Been thinking of ways to make my coach feel more modern so I'm super interested in your results
-
Get warm white. Regular white always seems super harsh and almost blue to my eyes.
-
krilov....how bright are these compared to a 1141 bulb?? At that price I would change all of mine if bright enough!
thanks,
RVdaytrader
I would say they are almost as bright and almost as warm. They are still leds and don't quit match the color/feel of regular bulbs but for such a fraction of the power use, they work great for me.
I've only had the bulbs for a week, so I can say how they will last long term. For now, they are great. Ordered one to test and just ordered 10 more.
FYI, The bayonet base that comes with the bulbs are tiny. I didn't notice the measurements, when I first ordered.
If anyone has a better led source, I'd love to hear about it.
here's a side by side
1141 on the left and LED on the right.

Greg,
Do you have pictures somewhere that show where/how you mounted the switches inside cabinet doors?
-
Greg,
Where'd you get your switches and how much were they? Looks great!
-
I think these are fantastic. Free shipping takes a while, but they are a really great price and I like the warm white of these vs the warm white bulbs from ledwholsale. In case the link is dead, the ebay seller is dxy_dxyduan.

How much do you think our toyhomes depreciate in a year?
-
Great job! I was thinking about doing the same thing.
How much did it cost and how long did it take?
Did you know there was a leak solely because of the smell or did you test somehow?
-
How do I tell when it's time to empty my black water tank?
My monitor panel doesn't seem to work. Thanks!

What does the white button do?
Gonna be challenging to hold the white button and light it from the outside. Hmm. May have to rig a stick or something.
-
Push my fridge igniter once and it stayed pushed in. Someone on rv.net suggested I light it from outside. Didn't think to ask where exactly.
Here is my button. Anyone know how to fix this?
Here is my best guess of where to light, am I way off?
-
What is the best way you found to level your rig?
Especially interested in stealth solutions.
Thanks!
Are you in Austin?

I've seen a few toyhomes here recently and wonder if any of the owners are on here!
