As to the above discussion, you have to think about each fixture/lamp as to what LED solution is best. Sometimes that means leaving well enough alone. I'm not spending nearly $60 to replace the fancy bulbs in the bathroom vanity. Those incandescents are here to stay, in my case anyway.
My whole journey down this path started because I wanted "pretty light" not because of any other advantages of LEDs. I like the vanity lights the way they are.

We dry camp quite a bit, at least 30 days a year, so the amperage savings is huge for us. NY State DEC parks only allow 5 hours of generator time per day so we have to be conservative with our charge time. Some days we're away during generator hours and there's no re-charge at all.
I just redid the clearance this year, but all the other inside, outside, and compartment lights were finished up two seasons past. I added auxiliary STT fixtures and backup fixtures last year.
If we camped with hookups more than not, I don't think I would have done the conversion so completely. But we've dry camped like this for over 20 years now so the savings did matter.
