Need urgent help please, off to France tomorrow. Got a 2016 Knaus Sky TI and one of the bathroom bulbs has blown. I cannot see what wattage it is but as its halogen thought to replace it with LED. Took one of the LED bulbs from lounge but cannot see what make, model etc, it is. Mounting says 2w max but cannot seem to see any online the same so wondering if anyone knows the halogen wattage equivalent and what bulb to buy. Couple of pics attached for the LED bulb I am looking for or just a straight GU4 version?

If your going to France via dover or the tunnel an heading down there during the day then Kent Motorhome Centre is not far off of either the M20 or M2 so might be worth giving them a ring and to see if they stock bulbs that might suit.

I use the same type LED bulb in your photo and I bought mine of eBay as they were the cheapest but not much good to you if your in a rush.

When I replaced similar bulbs in our MH with LED ones I bought the cheapest I could find. But the cheapest ones don't include a bridge diode so must be fittest with the correct polarity. Two of my light fittings were wired to the wrong polarity for the bulbs. Luckily I could unscrew the fitting and spin them 180 degrees so that the LED pointed downwards.

OK thanks, I just ordered from Aten Lighting and they say not polarity sensitive which makes them more expensive I guess, plus the quality of the parts. 3 year warranty so hopefully will be OK.
