Does anyone know where I could find some Litco 1651H small interior recess lights. I called Optronics that purchased Litco, they have discontinued those lights. Thanks Jim

You might give Walts RV Surplus a try; http://waltsrvsurplus.com/ (http://waltsrvsurplus.com/) Barney

Do you mean the 3 inch recessed ceiling lights with a glass cover and metal trim? Some people refer to them as puck lights.

Dan, yes they are the 3" recessed ceiling lights with a glass cover abnd metal trim. And I always thought a puck light was a surface mount unit that was shaped like a hockey puck. Thanks Jim 2006 Allure 31317

I have not been able to find replacements and I have spent a lot of time on the matter.
I have a better solution???? I found that Kaper II who provided many of the lighting fixtures to country coach has come up with a 3in LED fixture that fits the original hole and comes with a pigtail connector that matches the original. For some reason I have had issues with polarity and have had to reverse the wires on the plug. This is an OEM item that they are providing to new RV manufacturer's. I have been replacing my halogen fixtures a room at a time and using the old fixtures in the other areas when I have a broken fixture. I started with the bedroom ceiling and moved to the bath areas. I have paused because I am cheap and because I have a half dozen spare fixtures. Be careful with Kelvin ratings (whiteness) I like KaperII because they have a 3500 K LED that is a little whiter than the 10 W halogens but not that blue white which I do not like. 2700K is yellow light and 5500K is blue white.

Dan, I looked on the Kaper 2 website and saw two or three led fixtures that might work, but none seemed to have a connector.
Do you know the model number you used? Also, I don't see prices on their site. What did you pay for them?
Thanks

I have been using a L09-0039-NW the last order was $17.65. It is a 3500 K light that they provide to a RV manufacturer and I don't believe it is in their catalogue. They did one time offer a discount on larger orders.
My lights did come with a compatible plug but I still had to rewire the lights because of a polarity issue. I have been dealing with John an engineer at Kaper II. Inc. Interesting that the web-site spelling is different than the corporate spelling Kaper2.com vs KaperII.Inc.
I like the 3500K light better than the 5400K lights in the catalogue.

Be careful of the Kelvin rating maybe buy one to see if you like the color.
I know of a couple of friends who replaced all their overhead lights for $1200 to $1400 dollars and the wife hated the blue white color.
