I'm gonna throw out some random thoughts. Have you seen LED's on at night, in a dark campground? Do you prefer them to be mounted to the side of your TT under the awning, or out at the awning tube in a removable track-type device? White or color changing LED's? Dimmable light or not? Lots of folks love 'em, especially those who boondock because of the low power draw.

I have the factory LED awning lights for my whitehawk, we call them stadium lights because they are sooooo bright, as an experiment we put masking tape (the yellowish brown type) over the lights and we still think its too bright. I'm looking to add an LED light dimmer or purchasing another LED light strip kit that comes in different colors + dimmer remote. Good Luck ! I miss my porch light (converted to LED) I had on my pop up.
