Show us your LEDs!

[Carl Spiby]

Just popped LEDs in for the GI and inserts on my shadow, really like the effect on the lower playfield, the camera has a difficult time with the white balance so it looks even better in person, it doesn't pick up the purple with the blue so well.

I've never done coloured GI before but I thought I might give it a go without it being too garish and trying to stay true to the theme.

I'm using 2xSMD Premium for the GI and colour coordinated concave's for the inserts from www.pinball-led.co.uk, for the angled bayonet ones (One of the inlane Kahn letters and some red arrows), I tend to use the Flex (or Bendies) and you can get the light into exactly the right spot.

Looks really well.

I have been thinking CFTBL would look good with some LEDs

A lot of machines are ruined with LEDs (imho) not these two though

Maybe its a 40s and 50s thing

Here's one of my old STTNG with a mixture of 1st gen leds and coloured bulbs (the turquoise looking ones I made myself):

Thinking of putting some purple spotlights on the tops of the slings to light the ramps.

Here's my BSD:



And F-14:



Both have premium playfield kits from Pinball-led.co.uk, F-14 has frosty playfield GI lamps and BSD has the high intensity premium lamps again for the GI.
