In our Quest to solve the emails for higher illumination, we have created many New Bulbs and products never seen before.

Our Op-Max are back in stock, providing the highest volume of diffused light and throw. Now with new Bridge Rectifier, and patented parts, to produce an incredible throw of light over 300 degrees!

We have added 6.3V Plug and play strips this week in 3 SMD and 7 SMD, the easiest way to add strips to anywhere
on your game. Behind your flippers, backsplash, backBox, or GI.

But this New Bulb produces an incredible flood of light! It has two 5630 LED, that are rated for up to 40 Lumens each at 12V. We scaled it nicely to 6.3V, added a neat faceted edge Lens with a slight magnifying top.
Currently, output has been tested at an insane 50-60 Lumens for the 2 LEDs and combined output.

If one wants more light, or brighter, this is it!

But my problem. I have run out of ideas as to what to call this. I need your help.
What better way then a Pinside Contest. Simply post the best marketing, or "humorous" name you can think of
for this new bulb. Winner will be chosen on February 13, 12:00 PM EST.
The winner will receive, free in the mail, a Free Cross sample section of our New High Illumination Bulbs...
a $50 value or more of Op-Max, Strips, this bulb, 5 SMD....

I truly appreciate your help. I need to name it for an ad coming up in the New addition of Pinball Magazine, and I have been scratching my head to long.....

Thanks!

in 5 minutes you guys are Great!!! Thumbs up anyone you like too....I hope this wont be too hard..Amazing minds out there! (and a few derranged )

http://www.cometpinball.com/product-p/2-5630smd.htm

They are introductory priced at $1.59, and our Op-Max at $1.99

http://www.cometpinball.com/product-p/opmax.htm

As they are on sale, the 25 Pack would be $1.59 each, when the sale goes off....
But if anyone does order 25 pieces, Ill add an Op-Max sample....you can request the color in the order notes, or a couple of Tower Flashers, same....I hope that helps.

Thank You everyone, the talent out there is impressive. This might be hard to pick.

I just gave you a thumbs up, and it turned into a thumbs down??? WTF

Something going wrong here...oh wise and powerful Moderators..try a thumbs up...something wrong.

Now it changed back...strange....

Lots of great names, guys, thank you. Keep em coming!

The final name will be used in the next pinball magazine for global distribution!

Whites, in a narrow throat should be in shortly.....we will test, and then add color....a bulb between frosted and clear....
also, no name yet...

You guys are Great! My head is spinning! (Ok, thats the Meds)

I may give out some honorable mention awards!

My family has been enjoying and laughing at the funny ones!
Thanks for brightening my Day!
(next to the Walking Dead coming back...)

Thanks M,
It was strange. It went thumbs up. Refresh it went thumbs down, refresh it went back up....Who knows?

That was a Super-Flux Optic RGB Color change.
This one?
http://www.cometpinball.com/product-p/1-flux.htm

A 4 SMD has an output of 9-12 Lumens, A 5 SMD, CT carries as well, is 20-25 Lumens.
To the eye, its easier to describe as a 4 SMD, a 5 is like twice as bright, and this appears 3 times as bright as
a 4 SMD. Of course, distance to object has an affect.

An Op-Max throws wider, but softer....also now around 25 Lumens.

Not at all. Ill close this Wednesday at noon....gotta get it off to the printers...

Thumbs up for the Extra Effort DarkSlide.....I think someone(s) mentioned earlier...but appreciated!!!

Well, The guys in the office, both under 25, definetly have a different sense of Humor then me!

You guys Rock! THANKS!

Working on closure now.....sorry car trouble at home....few minutes!

Thank you for your kind words. I do work pretty long hours at this, and strive for the best I/we can to get perfect.
We do fail sometimes and appreciate everyones patience if we do, but we will always work to your needs.

The worn out baby? my alter ego.

80-100 hour work weeks will do that to you!

Who doesnt love Gremlins? Or was it my adolescent crush on Phoebe Cates, after coming out of Pool in Fast Times....?? Both, likely.

Ill have to come up with some other ways to give away some bulbs....I sure had a blast keeping up with the posts!

Art

Did I F up?

Ill check in the morning.
I thought I posted that someone else was first with that, and then went back and didnt see it.

If so, then even better! Another Winner! Ill send you out the same with my apologies!
Ill amend the post.

I could share a poor me rant, but its been a bit hard on my life this week with illness, 2 deaths, cancer..fun stuff.

Let me eyes rest, and Ill recheck that...again my apologies.

Apologies are due...Old age, bad eyes, and being Dumb....

With apologies, LLADNIP, Shawn, had Quasar in first and was missed. So he too Will receive a $50 Kit.

A Tie! Two Gold medal winners!

My apologies for that oversight.

You are quite welcome...Enjoy finding good spots for them!

The Op-Max and Quasars are selling very well at APE this weekend!
