    If I'm only going for a game or two on one machine, then it is the only one I turn on. If I plan on spending an hour in the game room or have friends over, then they all go on.

    Quoted from snowvictim:

    Nope, I'm not a wasteful person. Power draw on pins is very high, and what's the point if you're only playing one at a time? Save the planet.

    I was actually thinking about your comment last night. I'm about to do a cleanup and LED conversion on my Riverboat Gambler this weekend. Right now it's incandescent bulbs (with only about 5-6 LEDs). Right now, sitting on an idle, it is around 100-105 watts. About the same as a medium size fan.

    During play it peaks up to about 185 watts if a bunch of things fire at once, but seemed to stay around 130-140.

    I'm interested to see what this is once it is converted.
