I have just installed some new LED Lighting (similar to Christmas tree lights) in a circuit on my OO Gauge layout to look like bollards with lighting (and surprisingly for my complete lack of modelling skills they look quite good), whilst they look good they are very bright and really too bright. Just wondering as the bulbs are 3V, rated 31Vdc 2.4 Watts (???) is there any way of turning the brightness down? Unfortunately the lights are white but these were lights we had left over from Christmas so I decided to make use of them.
I have attached a picture which might illustrate the problem.
Alterantively can the bulbs be painted to reduce the dim, the bulbs never get warm presumably because they are LED.
If they can what Colour would everyone suggest?.
I would be very grateful for any suggestions, many thanks.
Stay safe.
Best,
Chris
