Re: Pachislo display lights
Hi,
I found a site that carries CCFL (Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamps) Which I believe are the type used in Pachislo machines and monitors. This site shows them used in Backlight uses for personal computer monitors, medical equipment and hand held devices. There are many other sites that have CCFL's. I find they come in many colors just like neon type lamps. CCFL uses low amps but are higher voltage than normal Fluorescent Lamps. They last up to 50,000 hours and take much less electricity to operate than common Fluorescent Lamps. They also do not generate the heat that standard Fluorescent Lamps generate.
They come in 2.0, 2.2, 2.6, 3.0 and 4.0mm Diameter and many length’s and colors.
I have seen some sites that show them used as lighting for the inside of you computer cases too.
The site that I visited is http://www.ccfldirect.com/index.html
The pencil thin lamps are I believe Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamps.
Hope this helps.
