    Big Betty's Truck Stop lower flipper strength Post #1 in topic

    Posted over 7 years ago by MT45 – in Tech: Early solid state ‐ Last reply 8 months ago

    Question for Truck Stop owners. Can you easily make the left and right orbits from the lower flippers - specifically the "C" and "Y" ramps. I can barely make it and most times reaches peak only to roll back and out the ramp entrances instead of all the way around. Is it supposed to be a tough shot?

    Yeah, I know of a 24/7 truck stop not too far away that runs three pins 24/7, as well as a dozen or so arcade games. I suppose it wears out the capacitors quicker, as those are rated for life when being used and not off, but realistically it shouldn't be a big deal. That truck stop seems to always have the games in great condition too. (...and Vid says the same thing about capacitors as I type, hooray!)

    I just did a Truck Stop with Comet Leds ... you'll get terrible flickering from the 6803 boards. Luckily, Hans at Seigecraft has developed Led adaptor boards for the 6803 boards. I don't think they are up on his website yet. Hit him up at http://siegecraft.us Or maybe you could try non-flickering leds. I haven't tried them so I can't comment if they work or not. rd

    Mine just arrived today from Germany. Arrived in excellent condition. See pics of test fitting. I've got a bit of work to do before installing it. Sure looks like it fits perfectly. I painted all my circular key lines last week (trust me Truck stop has a few of those!). Added all my LED's today. Did some minor Kwikwood repairs as well. A little more paint touch ups and rebuilding 2 sets of flippers and I'll be ready to install the protector. I'll report back when completed. [att=3401643,803024 caption=""]
