    Consider these:

    LED bulbs will use much less energy, an important consideration if you use batteries. These have a flat illuminated surface so they fit in tight places. I have these and they work great.

    i have considered changing to led bulbs a few times over the years.. the advantage of incandescent bulbs is that you can use more or less power to power them.. but the advantage of, cool temp and long life that Led bulbs have is a huge advantage..

    thanks for posting..

    the LED is directed like a spotlight and has a blue hue like lights in a 7-11.
    i would recommend the LED with a filter or diffuser.
    the LED doesn't snap into the payout center and would require some disassembly of that area to get the bulb in from the front.

    LED is first image, normal bulb is second image.

    I also prefer how the incandescent bulbs dim as they go out rather than the instantaneous "on or off" of the LED bulbs.
