Multi colored LED project - PICS ADDED IN POST #14
I have decided its time for an all LED light upgrade project and I wanted to get some multicolored lights in the cabin and cockpit. If any of you have any experience with the lights I bought, please let me know your thoughts. I hope they are bright enough and I chose the pure white or warm white as it seems lots of folks have problems seeing with the cool white.
I bought some multicolored g4's for the 3 lights over the galley cabinet from marinebeam.com; part # BP-G4-09-RWW. They are warm white and switchable to red as seen here: http://store.marinebeam.com/red-white-led-g4.html I also intend to use that same light in the large dual 12v/120v light in the cabin ceiling.
For the 120v candelabra bulbs, I bought these High Quality E27 E14 G9 5W 450-Lumen 27 SMD 5050 LED High Light AC 100V~120V [E14,Warm White] in the e14 base.
For the bathroon, I got these http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=281266331200.
I also bought some lower end g4 towers for the reading lights in the cabin from ebay. I though these would be ok as we don't really use them much.
For the cockpit, I went with the Lumitec Shadow dimmable w/r/b with the stainless steel bezel http://www.marinescreens.com/Interi...ished-Stainless-Steel-Bezel.html#.UwKvwDeYZlY.
I got 2 for the radar arch and 2 for the courtesy lights. Marine screens dot com has the lowest price I could find anywhere, and I searched for good while as they are not cheap. Everyone I have heard talking about them loves them so I hope I have the same results.
Next I need to get the masthead/anchor and stern light and think Ill go with marinebeam on those as well.
Does any one know if you can you put plug and play leds in the standard OEM cabin courtesy lights?
Thanks for your thoughts.
