LED for headlight
#4
My problem was in most cases that my wished types were not available if I did try to buy warm white or sunny white micro leds. However it was never problematically to get white leds in all thinkable sizes.
One day I purchesed additiobnal to white leds a small bottle yellow light bulb lacquer - a from this time on I have dip my leds and colored them yellow. After a short drying I do test all the leds on their grade of brightness and the yellow shine and in a few cases I solved a bit of color by alcohol. In each case I have got a good yellowish light for my steamers, I think.
Look here a few pictures.

Maybe you will find that this color will be too yellow? I think that these lamps and this light is used at old and very old engines where the light is not so brightly and more white like at more modern steam times. I think that this will be a good solution for my steam engines and models.
