Easy to replace the overhead lights. Lights are brighter then old tubes. Will be ordering more soon. Plan to replace all tubes with the LED lights.

Easy Replacement
It was easy to replace the 18" florescent lights with the LED lights. M4 Products provide basic instructions for the Do It Yourselfer. I am pleased with the lights and the service I received from M4.

great conversion
Resently the ballist went out on one of my 5th wheels overhead lights. I was faced with changing the light fixture when I came across this product. I decided to give it a try. The installation was pretty easy and the new led bulbs worked so well I purchased a bunch more and now have converted all my 18 inch tubes to leds. Next I am going to convert the 12 inch tubed over my sink

Great RV replacement.
The product produces great light and is easy to install. My older fixtures are blowing ballasts and so far I have replaced most of them with these tubes they work great.

GREAT!!!
The M4 site is an outstanding resource, the bulbs are exactly as described, and the pricing can't be beat. I recently retrofitted our RV with LEDs. We used this bulb as well as 7 other bulb types, 53 bulbs total. Every bulb we purchased for every application was EXACTLY as described and matched our needs perfectly. No need to look elsewhere, M4LED is THE PLACE for RV LEDs!!!!
