The Light source is a LED. A super Bright one to be exact.
Mounted on an arm that spins around the block.

Arghhh, now i just HAVE to disassemble a few of them and replace it with a
green, and a yellow, and a blue...
Or maybe a LED that swiches from red to green when swiching polarity.

Hopefully the brightness will be enough for a decent luminance at the end of
the fiber-optics.
(Now, where is that all-purpose fork I usually use for this kind of
craftsmanship ;-)

If you don't use a tiny ultra bright one you won't get much... Also, the circuit
it the thing is already making sure the power flows to the LED one way. So you'd
have to disable that as well if you want the multicolour LED's.
My favs are the ones that are GREEN, RED and when AC it's Yellow!

(...) Ahh, to bad. I wonder if there are any other colors in "ultra bright"? (...) you'd (...) Actually I think there are LED's with only two legs with the "two-color" feature. I'll have to investigate this and come back to you. /Joakim (24 years ago, 10-Oct-00, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics, lugnet.technic)
