How did the led lights work out as far as brightness and battery consumption? Where did ou find them.

I love the Mich Golden table!

[mustangt69]

well consider this, i think the average car dome light is about 10 watts and all six of my lights together equal approx 9 watts. the lights are one of the highlights of my fish house. Every person that has seen them wants them for their house. I have 6 in my house. 3 in main ceiling, 1 above table, 1 in bathroom, and one above the stove. Each light consumes about 1.5 watts. As far as brightness you wont be disappointed. When we play cards and drink we only use the one above the table. With all six on it is pretty close to sitting in your house with the lights on. I bought them on hsolist. shipped i think i paid $65 for six of them but they are rated for like 60,000 hours and equal to a 30 watt halogen. search on hsolist for 48 led wide mr16 and you should find them. (Make sure you get the wide angle ones)not the spot light ones

Thanks for the info. I'll take a look on hsolist.

On your wheel system, do ya have jacks on the corners of your house and then you slide the wheels out? I am building a house and was having issues with the way I want to do the wheels. any info would be great.

[mustangt69]

yes, there is a tongue jack on the back corners. I flip them down, crank up the back and then crank up the tongue jack on the front and pull the wheel/axles and drop it back down. i can put up more pics if you need them. there is no suspension but my uncle pulled it at 65 with no problems. Also the camper came with trailer brakes so that is an added bonus if i hook them up.

if its not too much trouble could you email me some pics on how your tires slide out. (how the spindle is welded to the slide out section?) The way you got your house seems like it works pretty darn well. I have a camper trailer also and that seems like it would work really well. Could you email them pics to [email protected] any help you could give would be great. thanks again.

i used the axle off the camper and cut it in half then went to a metal yard and got some 1/4" thick square tubing the the axle shafts slid into and also some 2x5" tubing to weld to the bumper in the back for the tongue jack mounting surface.

here is the approx cost i paid.

2 side crank swivel tongue jacks. 20/each $40

6' of 1/4" x 1 3/4" tubing $35?

4' of 2"x5" tubing $15?

quick release pins $6

2' of small angle iron $10 (bracing for axle tube)

i got the 5/8" quick release pins(spring loaded)

[nofish]

thanks for the info. That will help a lot. Good luck fishin

this year.

i tried emailing you the pics but they were too big. The first pic above shows you the setup the best. the wheel on the backside is mounted in the axle tube ready to rock. I drilled my holes about 4 inches from the end of the axle because my assumption is that there is less stress there because its further from the tire itself and wont weaken the steel by the wheel. The tube itself stops front and back movement. I would drill the holes in the axles and then set them next to the axle tube and do some measuring so you know where to drill your release pin holes. When the house is lowered them axles are not going anywhere. I can actually move the house around on the lake without even locking the pins. The weight of the house holds the axles in pretty tight. I also tapered the release pin hole a bit to make it easier to lock in the axles.
