| Timoe:
Whats the best way to light an Orange Translucent Shawnzilla/FX style button? I'd like to use a single LED mounted in a hole that is drilled in the center of the bottom of the button. But I dont know where to get an Orange wide angle led. Will white work? Any suggestions on where to get orange? Thanks |

Hey timoe, I'm no expert, but I haven't noticed any differences using different colored LEDs on translucent buttons (unless they're just clear). I took some pics of a blue LED and a white LED in a blue translucent, and though the white LED was rated at a higher MCD (hence the slightly lighter looking button), there was no noticeable difference in color on the button: |

you might try using yellow it should still look orange |

I've found that white LED's work best with orange buttons. The colored LED's are either dim or change the color. |
| Timoe:
So you would use white even with the blue buttons? |
