Beth, the 20 for $22 off ebay are wedge bulbs.

Nan, what are sabre lights - same as bayonet? (in the weapons world, both are really sharp sticks...)

..

That's what I thought - talk of bayonets and sabres confused me.

Call me crazy, but my experience has been that cheap is exactly that - cheap. I found www.rvlighting.ca and www.technorv.com. They use Eco-LED lights and they are the same lights used in high end Class A motorhomes. The lights are designed specifically for RVs with wide voltage tolerance, high reliability, very low current and minimal heat. They also come with a 3 year warranty.

I purchased the cool white which resembles outside light inside my motorhome. The lumens are around 180. My fixtures use bayonet bulbs. These can convert to either wedge or bayonet in the event I ever change my fixtures. The bayonet adapter allows the pancake bulb to swivel so the light is aimed in the direction needed. I am pleased with the results.

You may want to check out TechnoRV's website. The owners are RVers and they sell many other technology items of interest to us.

My other lights are BA15S. These are lights, if they all burn out I have spares, but for the little expense, I can change them all out. because of the small expense here, I changed them all, but can still use only the lights I need when I need them. I have a solar panel on top to help keep my battery charged when I am boondocking, so think this helps me stay prepared.

Again thanks Mitch.
