Makarios', Yankee #241, Overhead Galley Lights  
   

April 19, 2016. Mike has passed along a nice bit of info re new cabin lights for Makarios, Yankee #241, using LED low battery drain technology. His email and pictures are below. (minor edits)

Ron,

Here's a link to an article that I came across about affordable 12 v RV interior lights, and it seemed like a good idea.

http://www.livinlightly.com/affordable-12v-rv-lighting/ - scroll down to Ikea LEDs - Dioder Kit

This winter we bought two kits and installed them on the under deck trim pieces in the cabin area. Very easy job. They give a nice soft light, not what you would expect from LEDs.

Minimal battery draw. I plan on installing more up in the V- berth area.

I emailed some pictures of the installation on to you.

Cheers,

Mike
