I was looking for UK equivalents and where they are stocked if they were not 12 V items as we we run a slighly different voltage system in this country ;) . I wanted to know if people were using special marquee lights or something else I could cobble together from more common light fittings --- End quote --- Measure the amount of space you have and pop down to B&Q,Homebase, Focus etc and see what they have in stock.... Maybe a single 18w fluorescent fitting or a double, depending on how bright you want it..... Hold on..... *Unscrews marquee holder* My Sega cab has a single 15w tube..... |

Wouldn't that still be 12v? Even though the power supply on the other end would be switched to 220 it should not matter internally. If so it would be a snap to install an LED light from GGG. ~ D |

Nip over to Maplin and get a 6" Cold Cathode tube for £5.99 and then hook it up to a spare molex in your PC. Nice and bright and won't break the bank. |
