An LV GP38 to D&H, DC to DCC conversion project
#27
I talked about a defective LED in my last post.  One of the things that made me want to use that particular LED was that instead of being a cylinder, it was flat on two sides, which made it nice to slide up over my piece of styrene over the glass module in the cab for the front light.  I found a couple more standard clear LED "grain of wheat" cylindrical bulbs today, but was thinking it sure would be nice if two sides were flat.  Got to thinking, and by taking it over to the bench grinder at work with a pair of pliers, I carefully made flats on two sides of the bulb (avoiding the LED components).  Wha la!  Gonna get the soldering iron out and install it tonight.  Hope the 2nd try is better than the first.
