What I want to know is what battery it runs on ! If it is 12v, then you
can perform surgery and make it into a 12 light wired directly into the
trailer system.
Another 2 cents worth on LEDs.
Those of you who have some know that they are like lasers, shooting
light in one direction only. This is good in a flashlight, but not so
good in a room where you want all over light. We tend to think of the
wattage of an incandescent light bulb as we would see it in light
fixture, perhaps a table lamp with a white translucent shade. Since the
light from an incan. bulb goes in every direction, it lights up the room
very well. If you have an LED array that says it is the equivalent of
an 35 watt incan bulb, it will not light up the whole room, but only a
small pool. It will be bright in that pool, but not "escape" and light
up the area. The effect will be more like mood lighting or miniature
stage lighting than what most people expect in a room.
The point is, that saying an LED array is the equivalent of a 35 watt
incan bulb is pretty much apples and oranges. Using LEDs in your
trailer requires fixtures in different places than the old 1156's
fixtures. And that's part of the fun, but it will require some wiring
and experimentation, and a tolerance for a different look from the lights.
