LED's on sale

I bought LED's on Amazon at 10 for $50 taking a chance because the manufacturer didn't include lumen ratings. The alternative was another brand at 10 for $125.

I installed them today and they're much brighter and whiter than my existing ones. I put them in the mostly used fixtures and put the existing LED's in the lesser used fixtures where these were destined. They push in easy. Good value!

GRV 24-5050 flat panel pack of 10 for $49.99 wedge type
GRV Ba15s pack of 2 for $13.98 to replace 1141 and 1156 outside patio

They have a lesser flat panel , assume not as bright, wedge at 10 for about $25.00

At those prices today I ordered 10 omni directional type, wedge GRV 25-3528 for $25.80 to complete all fixtures including reading lights and cargo.

I wouldn't have sent notice just based on price but I actually installed them yesterday. They are less than half the cost of the ones I bought two years ago and much brighter.

Yes, I have found the same thing. The technology is rapidly taking over and advancing at the same time.

It took me 3 years buying some each year to replace all inside plus the yellow outside bug light. Well worth it if one is boondocking. Just now a days, it has the same value but half the price...

I purchased a 10 pack of of these LED bulbs and they arrived today. I had to slush through the snow to get to the camper to try one out. Boy I am really happy with the color and brightness. I've been trying out different LED bulbs one at a time to see if I could find one that I liked and was reasonably priced. This bulb is simular to the first bulb I purchased but is a little brighter. Thank you for the heads up on the bulbs. I think I found a winner. I hope to put these 10 in the most used fixtures and spread out the other LEDs I have in other fixtures.

I ended up buying 10 more but the multi-directional type for about $26 and now have LED's in every fixture including the outside lamps and reading lamps. Good product!

(I too had to dig my way to the camper to install them)
