LEDS
Pinball LED bulbs are a great way to upgrade your CLASSIC PINBALL MACHINES.
They allow you to personalize your arcade games.
You can experiment with different colour combinations, colour changers, levels of brightness, & flashers.
For GI (general illumination) or those targeted playfield areas, you can find what’s right for you.
Brighten up & save energy with long lasting ‘ASTILLED’ LED bulbs.

7 ADVANTAGES TO CONVERTING TO LEDS:
📍Less power consumption
📍More light
📍Colour flexibility
📍Less heat
📍Preserves the backglass & plastics
📍Much longer life span
📍Lower operating costs
LED SUGGESTIONS:
GENERAL ILLUMINATION (GI)
Use COOL (CW) or WARM WHITE (WW)
ALWAYS use 1 SMD FROSTED SMALL DOME bulbs for G.I. lighting in the backbox.
Do you have upper playfield glare? Use these 1 SMD bulbs. (2 SMD cause too much glare on the playfield glass)
Less expensive bulbs can be used in G.I. (no-ghost bulbs are not necessary)
Bayonet style (044-01-GI-CW) or (044-01-GI-WW)
Wedge style (555-01-GI-CW) or (555-01-GI-WW)
🔴PLAYFIELD:
I use 1 SMD FROSTED SMALL DOME (G.I.) bulbs
Bayonet style (044-01-GI-CW) or (044-01-GI-WW)
Wedge style (555-01-GI-CW) or (555-01-GI-WW)
🔴TOP of the PLAYFIELD:
Use 2 SMD FROSTED SMALL DOME (SD) bulbs
This area tends to be a little darker so these
extra bright bulbs work well
Bayonet style (044-02-SD-CW) or (044-02-SD-WW)
Wedge style (555-02-SD-CW) or (555-02-SD-WW)
🔴MULTI-LEVEL PLASTICS:
Use 2 SMD FROSTED SMALL DOME (SD)
Bayonet style (044-02-SD-CW) or (044-02-SD-WW)
Wedge style (555-02-SD-CW) or (555-02-SD-WW)
or
2 SMD FROSTED DOME (FD) (regular size)
Bayonet style (044-02-FD-CW) or (044-02-FD-WW)
Wedge style (555-02-FD-CW) or (555-02-FD-WW)
PLAYFIELD ILLUMINATION
You can also colour match LANE GUIDES to make the playfields ‘pop’.
🔴POP BUMPERS are lit up best with the POP BUMPER RING LEDS.
These have 28 SMD (21 SMD on the top
to highlight the pop bumper and 7 SMD
on the bottom to highlight the playfield.
Bayonet style (044-28-BR-whatever colour)
Wedge style (555-28-BR-whatever colour)
🔴BALL TROUGH / SHOOTER LANE are lit up best with STRIP LIGHTING LEDS.
STRIPS are available in 3 SMD, 10 SMD, and 20 SMD
Bayonet style (044-03-STRIP-whatever colour)
Wedge style (555-03-STRIP-whatever colour)
Bayonet style (044-10-STRIP-whatever colour)
Wedge style (555-10-STRIP-whatever colour)
Bayonet style (044-20-STRIP-whatever colour)
Wedge style (555-20-STRIP-whatever colour)
UNDER PLAYFIELD ILLUMINATION
🔴SMALL INSERTS:
I typically use less expensive NO DOME LEDS (ND)
🔴LARGE INSERTS:
To balance the brightness use FROSTED DOME LEDS (FD)
I use 2 SMD LEDS.
I like to colour match the inserts.
For example, an orange or pink LED under an orange ‘extra ball when lit’ insert ***looks fantastic***
🔴FLEXI LEDS (FX) are used when a socket is mounted horizontally.
