That's exactly what I've done. As the bulbs failed I saved them and managed
to remove the innards while saving the base and not cutting my fingers in
the process :-) A 5 mm LED fits in nicely.
John K's suggestion about idling current is a good one, but it will
involve a rebuild of the

Re LEDs, I noticed some small LED Xmas lights that had a bezel with an
inverted cone - apex pointing at the LED. They spread light around
'differently'.

Yes-those KGM displays are really quite interesting.
Has anyone come up with an LED replacement for the bulbs in them?
I've tried a few, but LEDs have a few characteristics which are not
helpful, e.g. they are pretty directional.
Hi all,
A few years ago I built a 6 digit clock using those indicators. They are
multiplexed and the clock looks terrific. Mine uses 12V flange based bulbs.
The downside is that the bulbs don't last all that long when multiplexed at
the theoretically correct voltage of 12 * sqrt(6) = 30 V

I have used flat top LEDs which have a somewhat white rough surface, they
are not absolutely clear, and then I placed a small amount of clear silicon
glue on top of that. The clear silicone glue turns milky white when it sets
and that spreads the light some which works quite well in my opinion,
That sounds like swearing in the church!

Hi all,
I found some displays in my boxes.
They came with original box but no datasheet.
I can light it by 5V,and I think 6.3V is better.
The photos cannot upload,so I have to upload to photobucket.

So,Has anyone seen this display before?
I had a voltmeter with those displays. Hang on to 'em, they're really nice (or
you can sell 'em for a fair bit).

I've seen edgelit displays in General Radio Equipment with digits 1 thru
0. The displays were made id England by KGM Electronics in the 60's I
think and I believe they used type 327 or 330 bulbs. I sold a
Synchronometer using these displays on ebay back in April and it can be
seen here:
