    I did this with some flex LEDs, but the light was pretty dim. Has anyone ever used a flex flasher instead and hooked it up to 12v for a brighter light?

    The standard 1SMD flex, I have some from PBB and some from Comet (they're the same bulb).

    I have supplies to do a bunch of games, but the first I did was a CFTBL with green translucent buttons and green LEDs. They were so dim from the outside that I didn't bother finishing the install.
