Is it the lights or the fixtures? We've just about changed every light in our RV home with LED's and have only had to change maybe 2 of those that were just bulbs to plug into fixtures. By contrast, we have good sized fixtures in the bedroom and living room that have "boards" with over a dozen LED elements, and we've had to replace a few of those.
The lady at the lighting store said it sounds like the “transformers” are going bad, but you have to replace the entire light strip. She speculated that we could’ve just got a bad batch.

I got the new lights put up a little while ago, and I cussed the electrician the whole time. If these lights had been put in an existing kitchen, I would’ve understood the way they were wired in, but it doesn’t make sense with this being new construction.
Oh well, they’re installed, and my wife is happy. :thumb:

When we were preparing our son's "new to him" house a couple of years ago, we went through replacing lights and even replaced the kitchen fluorescent bulbs with LED style. If I remember right, they do have to be wired correctly.

My daughter is 18 today, and I offered to cook for her (and sh*tbird). She wanted fried fish, so I’m fixing to be standing over hot grease and sweating.
This is in the shade under my carport.

These are not the firearms you're looking for.

Well, at least you'll be energy efficient in getting the oil up to temp!

First looks are NEVER really good...

...on my first look, I saw 140 degrees.

Then I realized your thermometer has both Fahrenheit and Celsius.

GOT ME!!!!
