We are going to be replacing the bulbs in our Conway Crusader for LEDs as the halogen ones get very hot.

Does anyone know what wattage the small spotlights above the cooker and the two larger lights, including the one on the wardrobe, are?

Thanks

I changed to LED bulbs in our 2005 Crusader. I used G4 2W COB led's for the spots.

For the larger oval lights, I used some 12W led strip like this - https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00JQV6SFU?tag=ukcampsite00.   I soldered 3 short lengths (that would fit in the light) together for each light and you also have to remove the ballast thing. It was a bit fiddly and the soldering took a bit of time but it worked in the end... I would get non-waterproof led strip as the waterproofing is a pain to get off for the soldering.

There was a video/webpage showing how to do this but I can't find it.

Found a link for the larger ones, not the same lights but will give you an idea. http://www.instructables.com/id/LED-Caravan-lighting/?ALLSTEPS

Note: Getting the light covers of without the tabs breaking is quite a challenge, I know I broke at least one.

The actual larger lights that Pennine use contain 2 x 8W 'bulbs'. Not sure about the spots though.

The one good thing about being wrong is the joy it brings to others..
