When you're choosing signaling indicators operator controls, the fundamental question is whether you need one multi-function indicator or several simple single-color lights. The Allen Bradley 800T-PC416 and a 10-piece pack of green LED pilot lights sit at opposite ends of that decision. This comparison looks at what each approach buys you.
Quick verdict: Go with the Allen Bradley 800T-PC416 if a single panel location must communicate multiple machine states, such as manual or auto mode, warnings, or operating conditions. Go with the 10-piece green LED pack if you just need a clear green "on" or "run" light and you want multiple lights for a low price.

Where the Allen Bradley 800T-PC416 Wins
- You need a single panel light to show several different conditions. The 800T-PC416 is designed for quad indication, so one mounted unit can replace the need for multiple separate lights in that spot.
- You want the mounting hardware included. The package comes with three rubber spacers, a tightening mounting nut, and a decorative barrel nut.
- Your priority is a more compact operator-control layout with fewer individual holes for status lights.
Where the 10-Pc Green LED Pilot Lights Win
- You need multiple green status lights in different spots. The pack gives you enough to cover several panel positions.
- You want the lowest listed price for the most pieces: multiple lights for less than the cost of a single multi-function indicator.
- You need a simple green status light and want to cover many positions without a high per-unit cost.
Allen Bradley 800T-PC416 Indicator Lights
The Allen Bradley 800T-PC416 is a 120V panel indicator with four lens positions: red, blue, green, and clear. That makes it useful for mode selection, warnings, and machine-condition status in one location. The package includes three rubber spacers, a tightening mounting nut, and a decorative barrel nut, so the hardware needed to secure it is part of the deal. Its standout strength is multi-function clarity: an operator can read several states without scanning multiple lights. The main limitation is price, at USD 65.00, especially when compared to the ten-pack. It also draws 9.2W per lit bulb, and it is a new open-box unit sold without the original box. If you need only a simple green indicator, this is more capability than you'd need.
10-Pc Green LED Pilot Lights
At USD 4.98, this lot of ten green 10mm 120V AC LED panel-mounting pilot lights delivers a straightforward green indication at a very low price. The set gives you ten indicators, so a control panel with several 'run' or 'power on' positions can be covered in one order. The 10mm cutout size is compact and suits tight layouts. The trade-off is that all ten lights are green and single-function: they cannot show different colors on their own, so if you need to color-code different machine modes, these won't do that. They are the lower-priced choice for the simple job of showing that a circuit is active.
Final Choice by Use Case
If your operator panel needs one compact, multi-function signaling point, the Allen Bradley 800T-PC416 is the more complete answer. Its multi-function design and included mounting hardware make the higher price easier to justify for that scenario.
If you need several simple green "on" or "run" indicators and you want the lowest cost per light, the 10-Pc Green LED Pilot Lights are the right pick. The set's quantity and price let you cover many positions without the expense of multi-function hardware.
