    I personally love the look of classic incandescent bulbs in EMs and when I see youtube videos of EM machines with the modern style LEDs in them I'm disgusted. However, I've noticed the so called "retro" LEDs available from companies like NoFlix and CoinTaker. Do these retro LEDs really make a convincing replacement for standard bulbs? I ask this because they would be quite effective in eliminating heat burns on playfield plastics. Has anyone used these in an EM game of theirs and has photos they could share?

    I heard the warm whites gave off a green tinged light. Is this true?
