Thats not good. Is "Light Pipe" the correct terminology for these tubes? I have tried to search the web for them and cant find anything longer than a few inches. What can be used as an alternative and what term would you even use to find these pipes.

2SSRS@Gen5diy · 04-21-2011, 02:05 PM

that was the name used by the manufacturer.

Are thy just Lucite or Acrylic Rods?

2SSRS@Gen5diy · 04-21-2011, 03:08 PM

Yes but there are 2 pips in one, there is a second white one on top but its small may be 1/4 mm.

See if we can get to that this weekend. Have the first light pipe if you can use it for anything, although it was cut to allow leds at both ends.

What do you mean? Is the surface sanded down along the length of one edge?

2SSRS@Gen5diy · 04-21-2011, 03:54 PM

No there is a second white pipe on top, the length of the pipe.
Like this.

digikey stopped producing the light pipes and went over to an LED pipe. It's in their magazine they came out with.

Tyco was the producer though werent they? Digikey was just the distributor. Does anyone make anything similar? It looks like there are a few Chinese Distributors that carry them. Anyone translate chinese to see if they can order any?

You know...I think you are right. I think it's Tyco.

I get their monthly magazine with all their goodies. I really do want to check out one of those new LED light tubes. The light it already attached to the tube. Makes it easier on ordering and everything else. Yeah...I want to see one...hold it and see what it's about.
