Sunrise Signals, LEDs?

I have a pretty good supply of the old Sunrise target signals that I am building from the old kits. I have been putting fiber optics in each one, and using a bi-color LED to transmit the light from underneath the layout. Problem is that the light from the fiber optic is just not that bright.

The newer Sunrise signals come pre assembled with Micro BI-Color LED's installed. I would like to know if these small LED's can be bought as I would like to use them in the kits instead.

I purchased some from Alain Pelletier. Here's a link to his site.

Tell me,does Alan Pelletier have a brother named Ronald?

 

I don't have a brother named Ronald.

Marcel, Fernand and Lionel are my 3 brothers.

Pelletier is a very common name here in New Brunswick Canada / Northern Maine area

 

Ah ok,Im in contact with a Ronald Pelletier,a very nice bloke who does alot of fantasy paint schemes in N scale & sells them on the 'bay.Yes he lives in Quebec so that explians it.Just thought that seeing you both do such fine products that you two would be related.

 

Thanks, might be what I am looking for. How did the LED'd fit in the Sunrise Signals? I would like to keep the scale look of these signals, that is why I first tried fiber optics.

Serge from SMD products purchases the LEDs from me to build his signals.

check on my web site for the back view of the signals with the leds.

you will find that they are really good.

Brightness is great too.
