Title: Easy backlit reels for S+ RWB
Post by: tjankovs on January 25, 2024, 08:23:09 PM

I found these nice little LED projectors on Amazon.  They work perfectly to backlight the reels.  Just plug them into the accessory AC outlet and upgrade your strips to the backlit style.  I didn't even have to tap a hole to mount them!

Hope this helps someone looking for this mod.

 :rotfl: I did this about 15 years ago on the old NLG forum, but used incandescent lamps.
LEDs weren't that easily available, as they are nowadays.
It's funny to see this again.
Good job!  :applause:

Where exactly are you plugging the lights in?  That back socket inside the machine?
Thanks

Just plugged into the 120vac accy outlet in the machine. They are always on when the machine in on...not sequenced like the real machine, but good enough.
