I should add also, those LED tubes wouldn't be bright enough for top or belly glass so don't waste your money that way.

I agree with the fact the LED bulbs don't work well in the top or belly glass. I picked up four S-2000 machines and two of them were converted to LED's. I'm going to go back to the fluorescent bulbs in the top & belly glasses and use the LED bulbs on my reel glass to help keeping the reel strips from fading. I was really surprised to find these in my machines since they do cost $30+ apiece..

AG&E sells an LED replacement for florescent tubes that I have seen in person at the G2E. NO ISSUES AND LOOKS GREAT!

I wonder how may diodes are in those. I connected 4 panels with 72 total diodes for a belly light once and it was still not as bright as a fluorescent bulb

I'm up! I'm up! What's up?  Tongue Out

I think LEDs are a waste of money because of the way the light is so pointy
but Bellman hit it on the head.
I agree it might be good for something as he and Cowboy say about saving it just for use on the reel glass area to prevent the god-awful fugging ugly fading that's happening with S2000 strips.

I don't have a problem as my only personal S2000 is rarely even on but I can only imagine how the strips are getting wiped out in casinos with 24/7 machines.

Also, I noticed that it takes a lot more diodes to get any brightness.
How do these save money when they're way over-priced
and actually need more juice to get any decent candlepower?

I like the sunshine idea!  Add a bit of sunshine and it can almost count as a constructive outdoor hobby!  Wink

The "D"  Daylight flourescent tubes are much whiter light compared to the "CW" cool whites. Very nice!
