LED lamps

Hi!
I and my husband want to replace all current bulbs to LED. During our last trip we noticed the problems with the battery. We think, that the LED may help to consume less electricity.
So, what lamps do you use?
thanks

LED bulbs do consume less power.

I just replaced the bulbs in my pendants and the wall sconce with 1076 equivalent bulbs from Amazon at approx. 250 lumens. The thread is here

What bulb you use depends on the type of fixture and your preference for the lighting (bright white etc...). Most of the bulbs are also available in a range of brightness (lumens) so you will need to decide what is best for you.

Thanks Dave for the thread, I read it.
Well, I think, it is better to pay more now and save money later.
I liked this light fixture https://www.mrosupply.com/lighting/l..._rab-lighting/

How much lumens LED lamp should I buy for it?

I bought 10 packs from RV LED. 250 lumens not the bright whites. These are quality bulbs that do not have polarity issues. That is they can be plugged in any way. They are a great power saver and produce very little heat. Don't forget the light in the stove hood.
