Surface Mount Interior Lighting, replacing 24" tube lights

[harrysmith500]

I have noticed the Opti-brite LED interior lighting on the new Trailswest Trailers. They are awesome and I want some.

Mine are of this type...

The existing interior lights in my Charmac Tri-sport elite are the Dual tube Florescent lights, they are about 14"x6"x2.5", they don't work very well when it's below 15 degrees




Only source I can find w/ a quick search

Maybe this is an option?

This may be the easiest....

It's summer, no one is excited yet. Get the Opti brite lights!! I put those in my trailer and they are awesome compared to the original ones. They make it so much easier to work on sleds with the doors closed.

I would just change the bulbs to led. They make some that go right in and will work with the ballast in place just put the bulb in. Or you can get the kind you rewire and do away with the ballast.

Check out sollarseller.com. Just bought some led lights for my new mission trailer. John is a great guy to deal with.

Which light did you get? Could you also link it as the website isn't real user friendly for me?
Thanks

I bought the model# LED416p. I bought mainly because it was only 3/4 tall so i have roof clearness for my utv. It is 2400 lumens and really bright. They are a little spendy at $80.00 a pop but I am planing on not having at 110v lights. So if u put the money from the 110v lights toward the led lights. Then they aren't near as expensive. I am planing on 4 lights in my 29' trailer.

You can buy a LOT of strip lights for the cost of those fixture lights, and the strip lights give a better light by eliminating all shadows.

How big is your trailer and how many of those lights did you use? I have a 18' enclosed that I'd like to put LED's in. I'm thinking two of them centered inline would do the trick.

28' I put 2 on each side and 1 in the v which were the existing spots.
