Today my long waited for LED tube lamps arrived.
Each display unit has two inward tube lamps.
Next to the advantage of a powerful drop in power use, it even has a higher light intensity.
So changing to LED is a win win situation.
These tube lights are becoming standart now, they use to be expensive but now you already can get them for under 2,5$

Of corse this means taking everything out of the cabinets to remake the tube lamp armature.
The ballast and starter lose their function, so they come out and some rewiring and the new LED tube lamps can be placed.

anyway the effect is so much better
before first unit is done…

after the second unit is done…


Cheers,
Danny
