Hi Dave I'm looking for a comet LED kit for HS2 any chance of adding one to the website please? No rush. Thanks!
If you message Dave he'll order one in with his next Comet restock.
Personally I just get a load of sunlights, for my games now. Then a few warms or cools depending on the insert colour.

Thanks - never done a LED conversion before but seems like many people do colour match inserts especially green/blue ones.

Me neither, but wanting to do sttng. I do think they can be a very personal choice and there is no right or wrong.
Iām going to put some effort in and swap in and out and play around with different colours/ brightness etc.
Iāve been colour matching my flintstones recently and it makes a massive improvement
I have some colour matched but the results vary a lot. Especially if the insert has text on it. It washes it out and looks awful.
Remember these inserts are already coloured and adding a super bright LED already improves them tenfold, especially as incandescents weren't bright and gave off a warmer orange tone.
I have a load of warm white, sunlight and cool whites, both frosted and clear that I use to experiment with. The different tones of white suit different inserts.
It's personal preference of course
I just find a kit is to someone else's taste and not always suiting.

+1 for colour matching the inserts as well. I think it looks great. I generally use clear 1SMDās. The only exceptions imo are yellow and orange inserts.
Warm white for yellow and light orange inserts and pink for dark orange

8SMD Flex Flashers
The flexible version of our popular 8SMD Flashers allow you to position the light wherever you need it. Great for sideways sockets. Notes: the wedge socket is the same size as a #555 bulb, and will fit nicely in smaller or larger sockets...but it's a 12v bulb, so should only be used with 12v...

Sure thing Iāll get some in on the next order any thing in particular of interest ?
You got a drumstick? Special. I went to throw the Wotsists away and found 2 lollies then ate them. I don't buy sweets like that but if it's there I'll eat it.

The brass knuckles to start please
@David retro any chance you can bring over some of the pu-parts shooter lane protectors Mezel stock? Annoyingly pu-parts wonāt sell to the U.K. anymore without a VAT number I believe and they do some good stuff.

We do have one in stock for jersey jack games
Is it spike games your after ?
I think the spike ones are all different. PU parts lists them under specific name/game just like mezel do.
Godzilla
Bond
Foo Fighters
Likely all be popular choices.
@David retro any chance of you getting parts from The Pinball Resource in? I appreciate EM parts are probably not going to be a massive seller but they stock a lot of stuff you just can't get anywhere else and getting them to send over here can be a right ball ache!
