LED Marquee Lighting
(1/1)
rdagger:
I've read the posts and most people recommend fluorescent for lighting the marquee.  However, I was wondering if anyone had any luck using white LED's.   A local car shop sells 18" super bright white LED tubes for around $10.  I was hoping to avoid another plug in my cab and I've found fluorescent bulbs can buzz and create interference.

Also I saw a few posts regarding white cold cathodes.  Anyone running cold cathodes to light a marquee?  Computer mod shops are now selling these for under $10.

I suppose you could use just about anything i use flurescent lighting and stayed with it  because i could take the cover off or put it on or turn it around.That might sound stupid but you want you marquess to look perfect (as fas as brightness)  Only paid $8.00

Yeah, I thought about Super bright's too, but on reflection I'm gonna go with a fluorescent tube as I reckon you'll get a more uniform/consistent spread of light.  They are so cheap too.
