Recommended LED Replacement Options for Pop-Up Trailer To Conserve Battery Life
Question:
Hello, I have a 2003 Coleman Carmel tent trailer and Im wanting to replace the interior overhead lights and the outdoor lights one on side and one under the step to LEDs as well. What type/model do you suggest? Mainly camp w/o power so conserving battery use is a priority. I also want to put a switch on the CO tester so it is only on when we are in the trailer and off when we are out for the day so it doesnt use any battery. Thanks for your input.

For your interior overhead lights, I recommend the Optronics LED RV Interior Double Dome Light with Switch - 815 Lumens # RVILL34. Then for your outdoor lights on side the Optronics Armored LED Clearance and Side Marker Light - 6 Diodes - Steel Housing - Amber Lens # MCL86AB.
Then for your CO tester you can simply use a switch like the Buyers Mini Round On/Off Rocker Switch w/ Bezel - Backlit # 3376391100 to wire the 12V CO tester.
For under the step I recommend the Optronics Thinline LED Utility Light Bar - Submersible - 11 Diodes - Clear Lens - 15" Long # BUL69CB.
