LEDs are great. I saved a bundle by converting my house lighting to LED.
My camper is all DC LED too.

Been slowly doing the same thing in our house. As the incandescent or
CFL bulbs go out I've been replacing them with LED. Still have a bunch
to go though.

I don't have enough lamps that are not on dimmers to justify changing.

Most of the ones that aren't are CFLs now. When they burn out I may
get some LEDS

I have several 60 watt (equivalent) LED bulbs running on conventional
dimmers designed for use with incandescent bulbs. They work just fine
if there are two or more on the dimmer circuit. I have one in the shed
I built and it dims, but does not go completely out. If I added a
second LED bulb to the circuit it would.

Of course, you have to get "dimmable" LED bulbs.
