Are you talking about the LED ceiling interior light?

[Deleted User] · April 2019

No. The outside light.

Do you have the ovalish shape or the straight strip?

nuCamp sells the amber LED replacement for the outside porch light. They had them at uCamp last year.

If your just looking to soften it a little, another alternative would be to get some frosted glass spray. Super easy to apply and would soften that bright LED strip right up.

Jkjenn, it is the straight strip..

Does anyone know if the LED replacement is available on Amazon? Or the bulb/part number?

That frosted glass spray looks promising....

That's the exact same stuff I used on a glass panel door I put in for the entrance toy attached garage. Diffuses light perfectly

I was looking to go to amber to reduce bugs

There's always this for a yellow, you might even be able to find something closer to amber https://www.walmart.com/ip/Stained-Glass-Paint-11-5oz-Canary-Yellow/149951821

Go to any auto store and buy something like this and cut it to the shape of your outside light. That’s what I did and it works like a charm. And inexpensive. (Another t@bber suggested this to me.) https://shop.advanceautoparts.com/p/3m-lens-repair-tape-1875-x-60-amber-03442na/6019625-p?c3ch=PLA&c3nid=6019625-P&adtype=pla&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIgse8pN2-4QIVmx-tBh1hVQbBEAQYASABEgLVBvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds

I used the 3M taillight repair to cut an amber strip for my patio light. It actually needed a double layer since the LEDs were so bright.
After watching Travels with Delaney’s video on his mods which included the updated Amber patio light, I ordered one from NuCamp and it was an easy upgrade.

Thanks for all the feedback....new amber porch light from NuCamp is about $28....complete fixture...

That being said, will ck out 3M film, then decide.
