Ken's guide to installing bill acceptors on WPC era machines Post #89 in topic
Posted 18 months ago by ATLpb – in Tech: Generic ‐ Last reply 151 days ago
Trying to install a 12V into World Cup soccer. I have a spare stern door so that the faceplate fits and won’t be an issue. My issue is I’m getting 12V from the machine but when I put the acceptor in I’m only getting like 3V. It’s foggy but isn’t there some sort of piggy back harness module that connects the 9-pin molex and goes off in third direction to pull 2-pronged full 12V power from the outlet at the front right of the machine?

JJP HARRY POTTER pin coming? Post #148 in topic
Posted 18 months ago by PinMonk – in Jersey Jack Pinball ‐ Last reply 18 days ago
Great theme. Very poor choice in manufacturer. No chance in hell that jjp gets a dime of my money Meh. JJP is the only manufacturer that will deliver anything close to the world under glass that Harry Potter demands. Whether they finish the code is another matter entirely. They have two unfinished pins out there right now that are YEARS overdue for the final code polish. Not a good look since they're about to add a third.

Ask any random person what any of those are and they won't have a clue. You ask people who The Black Knight is and they're more likely to think of the Scooby Doo villain. It's super obscure in the great population. Even more than Supreme, which pinball heads hadn't really heard of even though it's a fashion company worth over $2b. I totally get what you're saying . But in the Pinball world , it's not original and it's the third edition of that title .
