New neon Bulb for New Net City

Post by Moonwalker »

Hi guys,

I need a new fluruoscent light bulb for one of my NNC cabs. The original from Toshiba is not available anymore and even less in Germany. Has anybody a good website or other tip for me?

Thanks

Does it have to be Toshiba brand?

You can pick up a 600mm fluorescent tube from any hardware store. It's going to be slightly longer than the original one, but it fits fine.

Personally I put LED tubes in all of mine.

If you're in Team Erzane, then nevermind!

:lol:

yeah some led bulb would probably be best .....I think you get rid of the starter if you put in an led bulb.

That's right. You need to bypass the starter.

There's a thread here:
