Reply to "S GAUGE AMERICAN MODELS BUDD CARS--"LED" THE LIGHT SHINE OUT!!"

I bit the bullet and did two of my cars with the cool white led's and it is a huge difference. I will try a couple with the warm light and see what I like best., I brought a reel of each and got them in about 8 days from China. I am putting them in newer Lionel Flyer cars. I beats the heck out of only having one light bulb lit up. Last step, turn off the room lights and enjoy., Costs for led's per car is about .18 cents per car, 300 led on reel, 18 per car. $.98 for buck converter. .11 cents per car for the filter. I am only using a 1 amp rectifier, a 2 amp rectifier is about .37 cents. That's $1.64 cents in parts per car....
