Groco HF - Toilet/Head


 

Thanx Daryl. I generally dislike the brite white led bulbs. Are any of those warm white? We tend to prefer most lighting to be in the warm end of the spectrum, which also like red light, helps with night vision.

This is the newer, more expensive bulb from West Marine:

It has 415 lumens, so twice the brightness - I plan to order one of these for the galley dome light and see if it makes a big difference.

I then bought several from Fisheries Supply:

As they were quite a bit cheaper.

After restoration, I started replacing the double bayonet bulbs with BA15D LED¡¯s. I installed one from WEST MARINE. It was 200 Lumens ; they now have one with 400 lumens.

The Fisheries Supply website has both: warm and cool to choose from. The West Narine seem warm to me, they do not provide that characterization in the specs online.

Amazing difference in wattage required to power them.
