Anyone point me in the right direction of an led equivalent of this bulb? These are in those reading light fixtures scattered in the cabin of my SeaRay

There are other sources.
Its a t10 wedge base. Not sure of the wattage, but figure roughly 10-15% of the incandescent wattage as an equivalent. Make sure you consider whether you want a warm white or cool white. Its a preference. For me, I don't like the harshness of cool white LEDs. All of mine have been replaced with warm white.
 
Ok and are these G4?

Ok last question. Does anyone know of you can buy just the clear white part of this fixture cover? I have two which presumably shattered or melted.

I’m thinking maybe just trying to find two different fixtures. There are two under the bunk you can’t see or one in each shower.
I know these parts tend to be unicorns lol
 
Have you found any brands that last? I've been looking around at various sites but I don't see any name brands for the T10 wedge. I've had good luck with LEDs in the past but after re-doing by kitchen and installing recessed lights with big box store "eco smart" LED floods, they last 6 months tops and then burn out.

I've learned my lesson with the "cool white" .... if it's not warm like an old school bulb, the Admiral will lose her mind.

I found some of those last night looking at LED's on west marine's website. There was, like 8 different ones that were all close to those.
 
I bought from LED Wholesalers about 7 years ago and not one bulb has failed. There is no real such thing as a “name brand” in the LED world. Virtually all LED’s are made in China and branded in packaging only. I think LED Wholesalers is a US importer.
 
Try Superbriteleds.com I replaced all of the interior bulbs and the cockpit with bulbs from them. Very easy to work with and you can return if you ordered the wrong one.

Don’t get me started...I have lost all faith in LEDs for the house... I just buy them off eBay with no preconceived expectation of longevity... my landscaping lights are the worse

I have found clear glass round lenses of correct size on internet and bought "frosting" acid. The acid I bought was on the weak side but it came close.
