This works perfectly fine. A friend of mine bought a huge amount of the 7 colors in bulk. Paid like $0.50 each. He gave me a fuckload, and I modified a few inovas with the bulbs. It works great.

The only problem is, when you go into 'dots' mode, it doesn't change colors. It shines all 3 colors (rgb) at one time, but it still looks quite nice.

They only have two prongs, just like the other microlights. You just have to clip them because they are a bit long, I use nail clippers for the desired effect.

Thank you, Rick. From you description it sounds like that's exactly what liquidemotions did. Got any of those LED's left over?

I do have a couple.

And yes, that's pretty much what liquidemotions did. I never buy any modified lights off liquidemotions -- You can get real cheap bulk lights off ebay, which are just as good if not better than ones off other sites. The lights we got for $0.50 come with two CR2016 batteries inside, the same ones used in Inovas. So when I need to change an Inova battery, I simply use the ones in my old microlights.

I was just looking on ebay you can get a pack of 100 5MM 7color LED's for about 10 bucks. Best part... They're 5000+ MCD, so they're bright as fuck.

Wow, if only I could explain why I need some of these LED's they have like all the LED's I'd ever need in any color with high MCD ratings.
