LED replacement

Hello All,

Trying to find an LED replacement for the two bulbs under the microwave.
We really rely on this light for task lighting over the range top.

Problem is we like to store our bread & rolls etc in the microwave.
The bulbs run so hot that the bread actually gets hot while just sitting in the microwave. We’re finding the bread does not stay fresh an entire trip from the heat.

Bulbs are 30S11 125v Intermediate base
Any leads would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks for the links Lou.
The two incandescent bulbs are each 2.25” x 1.5”.
There’s only 3/16” clearance in the recessed compartment where they screw into.

Our Lowes has a an extensive bulb section but any of the CFLs that had the intermediate base were too long (3”+).

This is going to turn into one of those stumble across them when I least expect it deals.

Costco or Sams club had packages of lights which had adaptor bases in led formats. They may carry what you are looking for.

Actually making a Costco run the week after we get back from the FROG rally in Goshen. Will put that on the list.
