Jerry Carr:
I bought mine at Quartzite from a vendor booth, I brought my fixtures to the show and he helped me rewire, at the same time I tested them all did work perfect. They are much brighter the the original bulbs.

The vendor E@ZRV Products www.eervproducts.com  I think he was asking 40.00/bulb but I paid 30.00/ bulb x 6
Here is a link to the lighting http://eezrvproduct.com/LED-LIGHTING-RV-and-MARINE_c5.htm

The 18" tubes he has on the web are differet the the tubes I bought at the tent show. Don Chin also has a full time spot at Tyson Wells his phone is 510 910 5397.

Joel Weiss:
I used these bulbs http://www.rvledbulbs.com/product-p/18-0577.htm in one of my 12" fixtures over a year ago and have been very pleased with them.   I chose these because the lumen rating was almost exactly the same as the fluorescent it replaced (I didn't want it to be brighter).  The color temp is about the same also.  Since the ballast in the fixture had failed, the replacement with LEDs was about the same as the ballast replacement cost which would have also necessitated two new tubes.

Jerry Carr:
Joel the LED is available in both cool and warm white I didn't set them up with dimer but if you like you could add this and the LED will dim.
I like it bright so have used a very bright LED with 4 strips of light in each tube, however they do offer a bulb that will output the same at the original tubes.

Dick Simonis:
Jerry, I looked at those tubes....yikes, 980 lumens from 108 LED's???  Isn't that about 3X the original tube??

What did you mean you used 4 strips in each tube??  One thought about changing the brightness might be to change the rocker switch from on/off to a high/off/low rocker....should be simple to control either one or two tubes plus you can run each fixture at a different setting if so desired.

Jerry Carr:
Hi Dick they make a single tube with 2 rows of LED or another with 4 rows running the length of each tube. I did look at Dons web site and see he now has another that has a single row of LED's. that are perpendicularly

I liked going to his display and looking at each light to compare them I did bring my fixture with me so I could see the actual results of each tube.

you could use a rocker or a dimmer if you like,my wife likes the light very low and does not use the ceiling fluorescent fixtures
