LED lighting

Is anyone having trouble with LED lighting in the Charlston? About half of my LED lighting bulbs are half light or not light.

Take the bedroom ceiling lights. Are all of them bright or dim?
Now slide the dimmer to see what effect it has on the lights, just some dim or some come on bright? Do the same for front living area and let us know.
It should be under warranty also. The center led don't dim.

Bill, thanks for the input - however, I did adjust the dimmers to full brightness. In the bathroom where there is no dimmer - two of the larger lights are completely out after they became weak and dim. In the kitchen where there is no dimmer - I took the glass covers off the lights and all of them had a different brightness; one of which had full brightness with all of the LED bulb points within it lit while others some of the LED bulb point were not lit. It is just weird that LED's would all be bad from the git-go of a new motorhome. Thanks for your feed back! Barry

If you go to the Berkshire forum, some of these guys are having problems with led's and were told they. Got a bad batch of lights. Sounds like it may be your problem.

Looks like amazon has a lot of choices under RV led lights.

The LED lights should last as long as the couch according to Mike at FR. FR is replacing mine but the couch has to go there anyways. He said he would send the LED'S to me - but I opted for them to replace them when couch is taken back up. The LED'S are hard wired in so if there is many of them it is not as simple as unplugging and plugging a new one in.

Same problem with mine. RV less than 6 months old and 4 of the LED lights are completely out, including 2 outside the bathroom so it's very dark in the hall.
