LED Saloon Lights

It's always handy to know where to turn when you need some help with the rigging - or the 30 year old Yanmar that needs a reconditioned alternator. If you've had a good experience with a supplier or craftsman, let us know who they are by posting their details here. Please start your post title with the general topic in capitals at the beginning.

Happy New Year to one and all.

I am just about to research the replacement of my old 12 volt mini strip lights in the saloon and forward cabin. While they work perfectly well, my ageing eyes need more light to read by and I suspect LED versions are both brighter and less punishing on the domestic battery.

Can anybody recommend a supplier and suitable LED strip light replacements? Thank you and roll on the summer!

Best wishes

Hi

I have G4 warm white led bulbs replacing the Halogen bulbs in the fore cabin light fittings. www.searolf.com Is the supplier.

I have also fitted a couple of LED strips which I got from Lidl. They sometimes pop up in their special buys, as bookcase lights with a 12V transformer. I have been using them now for 3 years without issues, although they have only been available in cold white which can be a bit harsh. http://www.searolf.com/store/c17/LIGHT_ ... ORIES.html Shows their available range.

I have no connection apart from being a satisfied customer.

Ian

Kind Regards
