(Roo 233s) Bunk End Fan/Light LED Modification

Got the camper on Sunday morning and checked all the lights to verify what is and what isnt LED. Turns out only the bunk end fan/lights and the stove vent light is incandescent. Looked online and found that Camping World carries LED's that will fit the bunk lights and the price was reasonable with a one year no questions asked warranty. Thats what their website said. People in the store said save the receipt and they will follow up on warranty if they sputter out before the 12 months is up.

Changing these out took only a couple of minutes. The savings in power will be huge as we do 90% of our camping dry. I was impressed with the amount of light. They sold one other bulb with more LED's but price was 50% more expensive (30 compared to 20).

Per the website here is specific info:
5500 Kelvin
Approximately 145 lumen output
12 volt with 0.073 amp draw.

I have posted pics of the process and of what it looks like when it throws light into a bunk end.

Looks great. My older roo has all incandescent bulbs, which will be slowly changed out as they burn up.
