  • How To Install the Optronics LED RV Interior Double Dome Light When Wire Colors Don't Match
  • The Optronics LED RV Interior Double Dome Light part # RVILL34 has two wires, black for power and white for ground. In order to use this to replace an existing light you'd need to test the wires on the trailer with a circuit tester to determine which is power and which is ground.

  • Brightness of Gustafson RV Ceiling Light w/ Glass Shade # 277-000400-331
  • I spoke with my contact at Gustafson Lighting regarding the RV Ceiling Light w/ Glass Shade # 277-000400-331 referenced in your question. They do not measure the light output of their fixtures in candlepower, but she stated that this particular unit is a 6 watt, LED module that has an output of 300 lumens.

  • Does Entire Fixture Need to be Replaced if LED Light Goes Out for Gustafson LED Pendant Light
  • If the LED light on the Gustafson RV LED Pendant Light # 277-000461 ever went out you'd need to replace the entire fixture. I wish I had a specific length of time that the bulb is supposed to last for but there isn't really a rating for this. Typically what we have been told is that an LED bulb like this should last the entirety of the purchaser owning the camper. Since LEDs draw such little power they can last a lot longer than incandescent bulbs do.

  • Can this Light Fixture be Shortened
  • The Gustafson RV LED Pendant Light part # 277-000451 has a rod that is threaded on both ends to accommodate the nut that holds the pieces together. Shortening it is possible but not an easy task.

  • Why Does OptiBrite ILL06COB Not Match Wire Colors of Battery
  • For the Opti-Brite LED Dome Light part # ILL06COB that you referenced the white wire is the ground and the black is power. RV interiors are typically wired with house interior wire colors and that is why the colors of your battery are different. Batteries like yours are wired more like automotive applications where the red is power and black is ground. The power draw of each of these lights is .48 amps. That would be fine to have four of these on 16 gauge wire as that would be less than...
