Amp indicator light
I am building an amp and would like to put a blue indicator light in but I am having trouble locating one. I need one that has a flat lens like the ones on the Bludotone amps. Any suggestions?

Re: Amp indicator light
ummm, My amps don't have a flat lens, it's a blue LED t-1 3/4 size and the Phillmore electronics Chrome LED holder.
Mouser Electronics carries the LED's, I use p/n630-hlmp-cb15-p0000
the holders I usually buy online at radioshack, but lots of places sell them.

Re: Amp indicator light
Mouser has a really nice LED holder that is identical to the RS part but cheaper.Funkalicousgroove wrote:ummm, My amps don't have a flat lens, it's a blue LED t-1 3/4 size and the Phillmore electronics Chrome LED holder.

Re: Amp indicator light
Ummm, they are only cheaper if you buy 100, if you buy 1 they are $.30 more, and if you buy 100 from RS they are like $1 ea.glasman wrote:Mouser has a really nice LED holder that is identical to the RS part but cheaper.Funkalicousgroove wrote:ummm, My amps don't have a flat lens, it's a blue LED t-1 3/4 size and the Phillmore electronics Chrome LED holder.

Re: Amp indicator light
Brandon I stand corrected. The RS is part is $1.49 for 2 of them, the mouser is 1.26 ea at 10 to 100.
Need to look for another option, just realized neither is RoHS compliant.

Doesn't look like it, normally they are noted if that is the case, these specifically say No on the mouser site.Funkalicousgroove wrote:Should be compliant by exemption

Re: Amp indicator light
Check the "partspipe" chinese Ebay dude. I bought like a 1000 of the smaller chrome LED holders for a ridiculously low price - I think it was less than $10

Re: Amp indicator light
Best price I saw was $12 for 100 with $12 shipping. No RoHS statements / documents so I would not go that route.heisthl wrote:Check the "partspipe" chinese Ebay dude. I bought like a 1000 of the smaller chrome LED holders for a ridiculously low price - I think it was less than $10
Would rather spend a little more and not have to worry about very expensive imperial entanglements.
BTW, whats happening on you side of town

I have a feeling that partspipe guy would manufacture any paperwork you wanted
I'm all excited about making it on both sides of an album (CD) cover.glasman wrote: BTW, whats happening on you side of town.

Re: Amp indicator light
Very cool, I just delivered one to Nick Moroch of the David Sanborn band (and studio cat to everyone). It almost made on last weekends Second Cup cafe, but logistically it did not work out so he used a backline rental (VOX AC30)... bummer.heisthl wrote:I have a feeling that partspipe guy would manufacture any paperwork you wanted
