Hi everyone, on my Hunter 49 I have these weak 6" round CFL recessed lights that are original. I'm looking for a replacement that will actually put a good amount of light down. I'm getting old and I need to see :) I've already purchased two of the LED replacement light fixtures from the sailboatowners shop, but I'm quite disappointed in the performance. Has anyone replaced their lights, and what did you replace them with?
Thanks!

Several years ago I started changing the small halogens out for led that I got from Dr. Led. This year I bought 5 more from Marine beam. I am thrilled with how much better these are. The color and brightness is fantastic. I also bought a new led deck light bulb and that is also fantastic. The technology has come a long way. I've read a lot about not buying the cheap chinese units and I'm convinced that is correct.

On my 49, I never even use the 6" fixtures any more.
I did a HUGE install where I put in recessed LED lighting throughout the cabins
It's all on wireless remotes & dimners, plus a phone App that I put together
If you pm me, I'll email you photos.
