Replacement LED indicators on power panel.

[ahalpern]

I have a few LED's on my 33 Power's power panel. They snap into a .250 hole are red, have wire leads. I have a couple of 12VDC one's out and 4 120 VAC out. Does anybody out there know where to buy these??

Looking for help

If that panel is original equipment, are you certain they are LEDs?

My guess is they are incadescents on the DC side and neon on the AC side. I'd pull one of each and take them to Radio Shack to find a mate. If that doesn't work, Digi-key and Mouser might be of assistance. I think you can find both on the web.

Ken thanks for the reply. I am certain that thay are LED's. I have found 2 manufactures that make these parts, LEDtronics and Data Display Products but both have a large minimum order. I am looking for another source. Blue Seas sells a LED just like I'm looking for except that it snaps into a .156 hole I may have to eventially use this with a bushing of sorts to mount into the .250 hole.

Thanks

I'm not a huge Radio Shack fan but these part numbers should work for the DC indicators:

RED 276-270
GREEN 276-271
ORANGE 276-272

Note all of these will tolerate a maximum of 16V, a good thing. They are listed as 9/32" diameter but fit my holes just fine.

They also have neon (not LED) indicators for 120VAC
RED 272-712
GREEN 272-708
ORANGE 272-707

The R.S. web site doesn't give the diameter for these but I suspect they will work.

I would suggest getting them right from Paneltronics.
http://paneltronics.com/parts.asp?compo=130
They have them in 5/16" and 1/4" and reasonably priced....~$2 each

Probably better than the R.S. ones also!

Panel tronics has the exact parts. Thanks for the great tip.

The people at Paneltronics are great to deal with and their products are top-of-the-line --- expensive, yes, but well worth the extra $$$ IMO. I have used them on several restoration jobs with outstanding results, both in appearance (the backlighted ones are seriously nice), and in function (top-notch engineering).

I had totally forgot about Paneltronics.
I've been looking for a small a/c panel with a main and 3 or 4 circuits. The smallest I could find was a Blue Sea - main w/6. Nothing wrong with BS, I don't need that many a/c circuits. I was against spending the extra for a main and a separate sub panel.
Paneltronics has a great selection and had just the beast I wanted.
Price difference was negligible. Thanks
