    Using smaller sized rubber bands Post #10 in topic

    Posted 84 days ago by Sea_Wolf – in EM Pinball Tech ‐ Last reply 83 days ago

    Hi! Is it not entirely wise to use a smaller rubber band size diameters ( ex: 3 1/2 instead of 4) For playfield kickers? Thanks in advance!! My Flip a Card calls for 3 1/2” rubbers on the 2 slingshots but plays much more lively with 3” rubbers on them. Not crazy bouncy, just perfect. With the 3 1/2” rubbers, it’s dull. It depends on the game too and as @gotemwill said, don’t go too small or you’ll stress the post holes.

The other 6 start with the playfield dark, backbox lit and all but two of them have the Tilt light on. The Card Whiz illuminates everything on power up. Not sure why it’s different.
