@TedW posted:Perhaps some elements of this led conversion will help. I have a few Lemax buildings. Same problem big cords. Converted to led using the following method. Only had to do it once and leds have lasted for years. The power comes from the accessory side of transformer, dialed down for my taste to 10 volts DC, through an ac/dc to dc buck converter.
This is interesting Ted, thank you. I like the size of your connectors. Are the LEDs from a lighting strip that can be cut? You said they are dimmable too. It is hard to tell from your pictures if the LEDs make the buildings ‘glow’. I also realize that ‘glow’ can be rather subjective, so it is hard to compare. I guess more LEDs could be added to you building for more ‘glow’?
I’ve attached a couple of pix that I feel show the ‘glow’ from C7 bulbs.
