Title: Cocktail CP lighting
Post by: rchadd on June 16, 2004, 09:08:54 am

can anyone advise on what type of lamps i need to get to light the CPs on my packman cocktail cab - the ones mounted behind the milky white plexi "windows".

currently wondering if that neon cold cathode PC case lighting would be an option. what do you think? not very authentic but would it look good?

figure i am not going to use white plexi (anyone know where to get it in the UK??) was going to resort to clear with a printed paper stuck on backing.

As shipped from the factory the control panel lights on Pacman are number 1895 miniature lamps (12 to 14 volts, bayonet base). Ms. Pacman on the other hand used number 194 or 161 miniature lamps (12 to 14 volts, wedge base).
