6.3V with a connecting bulb....easy as changing your GI Bulb!

Please allow me to share.

In the current mass market production of LEDs, and strips, Pink is considered Purple, and the same in China.
The Purple is not the Dark people, people have clamored about for years...So we made a Purple Bulb. called
Purple Passion, to satisfy the needs of wanting a real Purple Purple. I have not seen this mod in Person,
to know how purple will look, and if you have one Jady, perhaps you can try and photo, or Ill send that next.
The Pinks used in single bulbs and flashers, are custom doped to this color, because the volume reached is over 10,000
units. I can try to make Pure Pink in a strip, but someone needs to buy 10,000 pieces. or at least 7000 or more to break even.

Another direction, a bit pre mature, but worth sharing, is that last year we created 6.3V RGB strips with inline remote.
We discovered after production, but pre-release, that the "test" versions, we connected, worked on DC and AC, but the volume production only worked on DC. Since inserts were DC, (Not GI), we thought we would release for just this.
Unfortunately, the attract mode signals received, erased the memory settings...crap.
We havent given up, we have a new test solution working after many people on pinside that know more then I have helped, and we are again, in proto testing. I am not sure if the whole rig will fit in this mod, but fading, color changing, or Pink, could come, as this pink is made from R G B individual diodes, rather then a doped diode.

Another thought on Pink, is Jady, can you get the clear light parts cut in Pink or Pink Light emitting plastic?
That would allow white light to show pink, as its the plastic color.

Quoted from Tsskinne:

When I first connected mine it also seemed dim, it was just my connection between bulb and socket that was causing it, I adjusted that and it clearly became much much brighter, I'm guessing you may have a similar issue.

While all bulbs have been hand tested here, and Jady, I trust before you ship, you plug in and check, there can be unique game issues....first, you can see if the wires to the socket have been reversed. You can test with alligator clips, or trying to reversing the connector into the opposite polarity. Please note not all connectors can do this as there is a locking nib, and it can prevent the reversing back to not allow a "lock". You can also run a meter to your socket to check voltage.
The total power draw is close to that of an incandescent, but if your game has all incandescent in your GI strand, and you have a drop based on Caps, other board issues....it could be dim. Try plugging into another game, one with leds, or a newer to see if the issue is connection, bulb, or game.

Troubleshooting a bulb long distance is tough, as there are many things to see.
Replacement bulbs are here US side if needed....
