Thanks for that link Ron.  I have ordered LED bulbs from PinballLife before but they didn't have the version with the flexible leads back then, those look pretty versatile.   The extra illumination those provide for an edge lit dial makes a lot of difference.  I just placed a few on order as well as some of the following:

All in warm white....if they provide some brighter illumination along with less chance of heat burning a dial face then it is a win-win.
