LED Cool vs Natural Light for the Porch
Yahoo Message Number: 159156
We're looking for an opinion for replacing the porch light bulb. I'm leaning towards a natural light LED, but wondered if anyone tried the LED cool light? We'd like to make sure that our porch light doesn't turn into a spotlight, which is the reason behind our question. Thank you in advance for your guidance.

For best result when changing to LEDS, use the same color LED as the lens cover.
The porch lights plastic lens's is amber, so an amber LED is what you want..

Same goes for replacing tail lights, red LEDs for the tail and brake and amber LEDS for the turn signals, if so equipped. Clear for back up lights.

In addition to Larry's recommendation, note you should install a weather-resistant bulb, since moisture inside the fixture from leaks or condensation is likely.

I'm convinced that there is NOT a simple or easy answer or solution to any part of the RV experience. Not toilet paper, not tires, not LED lights ... etc. LOL. It's a crazy world. Btw, thank you for the guidance in the above posts, which will helped me to not make a LED mistake.
