It is well within your rights to not tell other members or Moderators your name but out of courtesy and as a friendly gesture it is suggested to introduce yourself in the relevent place.
If you expect answers to your queries I'd expect a more helpful reply would be forthcoming if it was know who you really are.
The decision is yours!

Your question was about White and Warm White LEDs...

I think your unintended suggestion about drawing insects away from the door or living areas is a great idea. I would also be armed with a suitable can of spray so that you can eliminate the little buggers at some suitable time after they have gathered around the White LED.
I am a man of many talents, being direct is one which seems to raise the most interest...

I have replaced 10 of the globes in the incandesant globes in the van with cool white leds. The difference is awesome. I did pay quite a bit for them , rrp $28 managed to get them for $20 each. They have a 2 year warranty. I did try a couple off the net but found heat was an issue.
I have only 3 more to change and that will be the whole van done. I have run them ivernight direct from the battery no issues. I did run the old ones that way and by 3am when I got home the system had shut down. I know it is not very scientific, but it works for me.
If anyone is interested they are Hybralec brand. I got mine from the local Jayco dealer.

Political Correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.
