That is officially the first time I've ever seen one of the green translucents and not thought "Yuck".  Looks nice!

I wish I could get a better pic that really shows the color.  After I get the whole CP put together and attached, I'll try some more.    But yeah, you're right.  I don't think I've ever seen a good pic of an illuminated green translucent either.  They're so freakin' dark!

Yeah for me and yeah for whammoed's Lightmites!

Indeed, QB rocks.
QB:  are those green short?  I thought the currently available green were long but those look like short ones?

**Warning**
The Lightmites will be taken off the market soon for an unknown period of time.  I am moving out of state and won't be able to fill orders.  If you need some now please get your order in before April, 9.

thanks all

I will be back at work on the rest of my product ideas after I get settled into a new house.

That was quick.  Did you know you were moving?  That's also pretty quick for a move.  Have fun.  Moving always is. :badmood: :dizzy:

I have been looking to move for several months.  It was just a matter of finding employment first.  I got tired of putting everything on hold which is why I went ahead and got things rolling on some products that have been floating around in my head.

How about revising your first post with the pricing on these. I searched the whole thread and couldn't find a price, but you did state you're taking orders until Apr 9....

NO MORE!!

I finally got around to hooking up my blue lightmites to my cp.  Even though they look great with the 'standard' lightmite lighting configuration (lighting from underneath up through the button plunger) they just weren't giving me the oomph I was looking for.  So I reconfigured them in the same way I configured my green buttons by cutting holes in the button-holders and routing the LEDs into them up near the bezel   

I think the results are great.   They're not quite as evenly lit as with the up-through-the-plunger style, but they're also not as UNevenly lit as the pictures might make you believe.

In any case, here's a pic showing the two lighting configurations side by side.



Also, just for grins, here's a pic of both my CPs lit up by whammoed's lightmites.  looking sweet to me!

As soon as these are available again I'll be ordering for sure. I just checked the web site and saw that they were still unavailable.
