Wal Mart has them for $26 vs TSC $35. I had to replace a bad one last month.

I don't know if it's any good. But LEDs are just LEDs right? Harbor Freight has it on sale right now at $12.99

Actually, there are all sorts of variations in LEDs.

I am in the process of specifying some for a project at work right now, and the variations available are amazing (and the specs are getting better every month).

One problem is that the producer of a consumer product can source his LEDs from any number of OEM suppliers and it is just not possible for a consumer to know which is good and which is better. The price of the finished product is little indication of how good the LED is.

Tractor Supply usualy has led sets for trailers, also you can get guards to go around them.

Just replaced my old square trailer lights with LED . academy sports & outdoors $49.00 with wiring great lights . Now I won't have to clean the bulb contacts to get the lights to work when I use the trailer :)

I have never had to worry about replaceing bulbs on my trailer I always tear up the whole assembly before i burn out the bulb What I need is something that will fit into an armored assembly that can take 365 horsepower shoveing it against an immovable object. Then maybe I will have to worry about replaceing burnt out bulbs. :)

Nope. There are thousands of LED light's to pick from now day's from numerous different manufacturers. Like most thing's you get what you pay for. Want a light that will last a lifetime then buy good ones from someone like Grote, TruckLite or SigStat. Buy a cheap one and it might last a year, it might not. Most of the high quality light's also come with a lifetime warrenty.

In the last couple of years I have installed thousands upon thousands of LED light's on trucks. Here's a picture of my latest large LED projects. Total of 266 LED's in total. All light's on this truck are Grote (except for the strobe light's which are TOMAR). What's sad is if you add up all the strobe light's, LED light's and my labor on this tow truck there's over $8500.

That last picture actually hurt my eyes it was so bright! ;)


If I was pulling a boat trailer I would insist on LEDs. Why? Filament bulbs produce heat. Back the trailer into the water while the harness is still connected and hit the brakes and the cold water will do the bulbs in almost immediately. That doesn't happen with sealed LEDs, no filament, and they produce little or no heat.
