Picked up a super nice Fireball classic, no fade. Perfect cabinet. Added leds, solidered 470 ohm resistors to the controlled lamp lights. So there is no flicker. $6 in resistors and about 1 hour of work as opposed to buying a led compatable lamp driver. Added extra leds to the dark areas. Also added lit shooter lane. Will be adding led strip under the disc so the small gap around it will glow red too. Fantastic game, and fantastic looking.

Wierd how pics make leds brighter.

Added the 5 watt led strip under the spinner. Now putting red transparent medusa flipper bats on. Putting superbands on the flippers too.

Hope you like it. Pics soon with the red bats.

That did not sound like a good idea to me, but it looks outstanding! Nice!
