Phase 2 of the LED test begins now that I have the PSU board installed.

Here's the Orbit with a donor plastic from the donor PF. Bullet style:

• Warm White Faceted

• "W" OptiMax

• "N" OptiMax

• "S" OptiMax 

• Natural White 5 SMD Tower

• WWhite 4 SMD 

• Natural White 5 SMD

• WWhite 1 SMD 

• WWhite Frosted 1 SMD 

• NWhite 6 LED Crystal Fan 661

Truth be told; I'm just not "feeling" any color other than  Warm White. Yeah; my sample size was heavily weighted to WW to begin with; but that was on purpose given I feel Warm White is closer to the incandescent light bulbs of the era. None of the LEDs were "ideal".  Some washed out the plastics with bright spots. Most can seen in the orbits... making the "look" of the bulb somewhat important.

I think once again; the Facetted lens style appealed to me most. I really like the light pattern it throws on the surface of the wood.
