Hey Rv'rs.  I found a source for LED replacement bulbs for 12 volt RV interior lights for $1.50 each. These are the bayonet style bulbs that are also used for tail lights on many cars.  I just replaced my porch light and three of my interior lights.  The light appears to be very bright and white and the energy usage compared to standard bulbs should be much better.  I'm not sure how long they will last but at $1.50, it's pretty hard to go wrong.  I got them at miniinthebox.com.  They have a huge selection of LED replacement bulbs for all kind of uses.

Those aren't the ones.  I ordered the  1156BA15S 3.25W 2-pack for $2.99.  I looked at them tonight and they appear to be brighter and whiter than the incandescent bulbs.  Im going to  replace my dome light too.  Draining the battery by leaving lights on should be a thing of the past.

Right on & thanks again Martin! I'm going to order some of those right away. Previously we had been using some AAA battery powered ones but the batteries never seemed to last too long.

I'm on the site and a search using that serial number doesn't turn up any matches.  Do you have a link specifically for those bulbs? 

You other guys find it?

Thanks,
Nate

Anyone else besides Martin order these light bulbs from this company?  I placed an order on March 4th and selected the super saver (free) shipping which stated the bulbs would be delivered within 10-20 business days.  I wait 5 weeks and email them inquiring about my order.  All I'm getting is a automated response.  I'm gonna give it another day then hit up my CC company to dispute the charge.

I was just about to place an order.  Let me know the results of your order.

I have placed and received 2 orders with no issues other than the slow shipping which they are up-front about.  The Lights are nice and bright and so far appear to be a great alternative to traditional bulbs.  Hopefully, they will respond to you.

I received my order in 2 separate shipments. Lights are working great in the rv.
Now I've ordered all new led interior bulbs for my truck.
