LED cabin light bulb for Hunter 306

[Bedouin]

Hello!

I am continuing in my quest to replace my incandescents with LED bulbs on my Hunter 306. However, I'm having a hard time finding one that fits the standard cabin light fixtures. I know they're G4 (two pins), but fitting them into the enclosure is the hard part.

Has anybody done this and can point me at the right size?

Thanks very much!

We have sourced an LED specifically to fit inside of that fixture:

Excellent and fortuitous! I'll buy two right now to try them out.

Cheers!

Oh, nevermind. Looks like they're on backorder. Do you know when you expect more in?

Should arrive within a few days.

 

[Bedouin]

Excellent. Order placed. Greetings to Puget Sound!

Now that is a good deal. We pay dearly to store and produce power in our boats when the same goal can be attained by conserving power and at a much lower cost. These LED bulbs will also outlast us and avoid the need to be periodically replacing them halogen bulbs. Not having to replace the fixture itself is a real saver.

Nico,

Visit me this weekend on Sanctuary II and I'll show you what has worked for me.

Led's

I did replace most of the lights on my 07 H-36 that we use the most with Led's
and just found Led replacement's on the internet and prices do vary so don'
go cheap and go some place in the middle with quality and price.
All I did was replace the holagen bulb's with Led's in all my fixtures.
The Led's were from China and others way too $$$$$$$$$$$$.

Try these guys, made in USA good quality. Their warm bulbs mimic incandescent bulbs very well. You don't get the bluish white light. Replaced my interior bulbs and dropped from 7.4 amps to 1.7amps. Not too bad
