    Question Replacing Pachinko Lighting

    Has anyone had to replace any lights on your Pachinko? If so, where did you find them and how do you know what wattage to buy? There must be special lights that change color? We all are going to need them soon enough, so can we dive into this subject to end any confusion ( on my part anyway)
    Thanks again for all of your support!

    The colour changing lights are usually LEDs, and can be different case styles and types depending on manufacturer. It can be hard getting an exact colour and intensity match when replacing LEDs, so make sure you buy enough to replace the adjacent ones as well or the new one will stick out like a sore thumb!

    Filament lamps are generally 24/28v 3watt, and are either 5mm dia wire ended, and 10mm wire ended or wedge base bulbs. When a lamp has a moulded on plastic base, I find a way of removing the lamp from the base (usually by carefully breaking the lamp) and then solder a wire ended bulb to the base.
