[moved] Transformer oil and lights
Gordie Orange, Sat Jul 16 2016, 07:16AMI have a home built transformer (4 mots in a box) filled with transformer oil and a clear perspex top.
Question, is it possible to be lit on the inside and if so what sort of bulb would do seeing as there isnt much room in there

LEDs seems like the obvious choice then
small, low voltage, high lumen output to size. etc.

The external circuit to the lamps should be grounded to prevent any high voltage danger. Also, if you
chose a LED with a base intended for socket, you may not be able to keep the oil from leaking in.
The lamp may be also lighted by a few turns around the core.
