It looks better in person, but not green or bright enough for me.

LED Meters and stock bulbs in panel

This combo look best.

Although it is a little more blue than stock bulbs, I may still change them all to LED once I get a new glass. The stock bulbs are just too hot for the silk screen for long use. A new glass cost too much to let it bubble again.

Please give me your opinion.

Those meters look great with the LED bulbs. Even though the panel lights look better with stock bulbs, if it were me I would go all LED for the cool operation and long life.

LEDs are rated for something like 25 years of continuous use. So you should never have to attend to your meter lamps again - in this life.

Just a note - for green panels you should use the green LEDs. I wondered that when you ordered. If you'd like them exchanged, just let me know and I'll send out the green version the same day.

I wondered why the green panel writing looked so blue-ish.

DH, do you sell these lamps? I didn't see any link in your profile. What Macs do you sell lamps for? I'm sure my 2205, 7106, and MX132 will eventually need relamping.
 
The wattmeters being that intense blue makes that old 2505 look like something that just rolled off the production line day before yesterday. Sweet!
