    Got a World Poker Tour and was having a hard time lighting it up because so many white plastics and full cool white was doing a bit of a wash out and colors were bombing it. So, messing around with some LED strips and resistors I got a coolwhite/blue color. It is more cool white, but with a sweet blue tint. I couldn't get a good pic of the strip as the color was always way different, but here is the world poker tour. There is an LED strip under left plastic drop targets, by flippers, underbackboard,m behind right scoop and under plastic for right drops. So,about 5 total in there all daisy chained up.

    * In the pic the flipper LED is pure white so you can see a bit of a difference as I hadn't changed it over yet and was testing the color differences.

    I need to get this color made up as I think it'd be great in spotlights. Adds a nice glow effect.

    I think that would really juice up the Metallica playfield!
