I've orded from LSdiodes too, and am extremely happy with their service (they even give freebies w/quantity orders). Their LEDs are very good quality, and they keep their shipping rates VERY fair (many LED sellers charge insane amounts for shipping). As far as ebay goes, if you want LARGE quantities, you do get the best deal on ebay. Most of the sellers ship from hong kong tho, so shipping rates/time are significantly higher, and I've found that the quality of LEDs fluctuates quite a bit (I find that I have to test each one to check/match brightnesses before installing anywhere). |

We ordered ours from SuperBrightLEDs Look for the wedge base bulbs about 3/4 of the way down the page. These are already 12v so its easy to power them from the PC power supply and are offered as singles as well as 4, 6 and 9-way clusters. Depending on what coindoor you have, the coin return slots may already be set up for this type of base (mine was). If not (or if you want to add a light under the trackball) you can buy the socket at an auto parts store. Retroblast has some good write-up's here and here. Prices are very cheap as was shipping and they arrived very quickly. -warren |
