Anyone heard of special coding available for HS2?

#10858 3 years ago

How many bulbs in the headboard? 555 or 44/47 have a game coming but want to do my light or in advance
Thanks for the help
A pic with the translight off and the game off would be great

#10861 3 years ago
Quoted from tiltmonster:

These are 555 and flashers 906

Quoted from GRUMPY:

I have taken this type of motor/gearbox apart and cleaned out the old grease and replaced it with new grease.

Does this take away the grinding sounds?

#10871 3 years ago

Just joined the Club... the teardown has begun, all guides have been polished , 4 coats of pure wax , LED bulbs installed .
Thanks to Mr_Tantrum for help and many great mods that he makes for this game. Some installed some still to go..
Just awaiting a parts order to finish .

Quoted from Elicash:

Can someone take a picture of their first switch in the right loop? From the topside? My actuator looks to be the wrong one.

So when I got this game the logo painted on the apron was absolutely beat. Found a spare used apron and until it gets here and gets Powder Coated I vinyl wrapped the one in the picture.

How do you get the extra ball in video mode... aim for sign?

#10895 3 years ago
Quoted from AlexRogan84:

I had a way of getting this EB to pop-up fairly consistently once upon a time. I used to do it by hugging one side or the other. Like go to the left and keep pressing the left button while you're there. It seemed like that was daring the logic to throw the EB sign up on the far side. And it often would. You would need to dart over and get it (by driving through it, as mentioned). I only ever did this in the lowest gear... meaning, I never changed gears and so the car moved much slower. If you get to the end of the race, you're only looking at about 12 mil, but if you get the extra ball along with that, it's well worth it.

Going to try this ...
Thanks to all for the replies

Quoted from AlexRogan84:

My machine is on L2.

I'm on the same .....

#10902 3 years ago

You need the tiny metal sleeves, first or second in the manual under posts ... available at PBL

Quoted from peteyhugs:

I am looking for a replacement LED bulb

906 is correct as others have mentioned , I use a flex 906 the way I can turn the LEDs facing up under the insert

Ooops didn't see the flex added from other guys
Disregard

#10948 3 years ago

Managed to get my hands on one of the prototype tunnels , should arrive Wednesday , will post pic when its installed.

#10958 3 years ago
Quoted from THJM:

Note for Canadians/International shipping,

Much better than it was before... at least no waiting while the old shipping waited for a bulk shipping deal.
You have tracking numbers now as opposed to calling I Global crappy shipping and getting tracking numbers the day after it arrives.
Is pricey but you get 3 options

#10975 3 years ago

Pink under orange works great ... nice vibrant color

#10983 3 years ago
Quoted from THJM:

Finally is there accurate rubber list somewhere or should I just rely on the manual?

It's wrong .... Dont trust it

#11002 3 years ago

Managed to get my hands on a licenced missing mountain, like new with the licensing from Williams decal still attached ...

Congratulations #Mr Tantrum another mod to enhance a great game ... I'm in .... Please let me know when they are ready !

#11171 3 years ago
Quoted from Mancave:

Great idea! but will it impede

That shot will be all the better with a spinner, hate it when it trickles up the ramp.. Looking forward to a crisp shot through the spinner and into the ramp

#11196 3 years ago

Just got a newly made set a little bit ago , the orange still no as vibrant as the original

#11197 3 years ago

On the new spinner , what will be point value per spin?

Quoted from fast_in_muskoka:

How about Ritchie’s car, with headlights on / off

Or the back end !

#11264 3 years ago
Quoted from transprtr4u:

Or the back end !

Could have the back of the car facing player ... otherside could have smoke coming from tires ....

When spinning looks like a burnout

#11291 3 years ago

My spinner arrived yesterday, build quality is great. Sadly to busy to get it installed right away. Will attach pictures when done.
Great mod, thank you @ MrTantrum

#11297 3 years ago
Quoted from Hapidance:

When I push the start button, a game won’t start. Is that normal if it’s displaying the opto errors?

In any case, I’ll be investigating more after work today.

After a complete tear down and cleaning my game showed the same error. After running a ball through the supercharger the error cleared.
However my game did start .... So must be an other issue that you are having

#11299 3 years ago
Quoted from AlexRogan84:

I tried to start a new game and all it did was make the sound of the engine trying to turn over

Only Pinball machine that requires jumper cables

#11312 2 years ago

like the shifter mod on your game @ MrTantrum

#11314 2 years ago
Quoted from Mr_Tantrum:

Thanks, but I forgot to turn it on for the photo.

any chance of attaching a pic with it on?

#11332 2 years ago

Just received payment request for the new Buthanburg HS2 playfields!
looking forward to receiving this although my playfield is fine, looking forward to having a new one!
great quality product with great clear coating!

#11336 2 years ago
Quoted from Paseb:

Is it your first purchase at this company?
Hs2 doesnt seem in stock on their website?
Anyone can comment on build quality

No , however our main restorer here has had several , I've seen a couple and they are superior to many out there. The dimpiling and cut outs are great the clearcoat is like mirror on his other playfields

#11346 2 years ago
Quoted from Mr_Tantrum:

I am so tempted, but I've never done a playfield swap and just trying to think through things to determine if I want to undertake such a project.

My playfield is decent and no noticeable wear , but I bought one just because it will be there if I need it!
sold 2 other HS2 and not letting this one go!

2 weeks later
#11361 2 years ago
Quoted from Mr_Tantrum:

unadulterated self-promotion

little understated... bought several items the quality is great! the customer service is outstanding! The products ship quickly!
buy with confidence.

#11363 2 years ago
Quoted from Mr_Tantrum:

I've had a few people get onto me for posting about my stuff in the threads at times, so I embrace the criticism.

good or bad ... exposure is a good thing!

made my HS2 look great .... wish I could find the time to get the spinner installed!

In my game, the ball dribbles off the left flipper

mine too..... just makes it over to the other flipper

Bathburg new playfield just shipped , can't wait he does great playfields

#11462 2 years ago
Quoted from RobF:

Buthamburg repro PF showed up today! It sure is purty....

Mine came last Monday, he does great work... shame to see it sit in the box. The playfield on my game doesn't warrant a swap , but someday will get around to it...

#11466 2 years ago
Quoted from Mooseman:

Rest in peace Dusty

Oh no ! Sad news

#11548 2 years ago
Quoted from Hapidance:

Perhaps a good excuse to buy a color DMD.

best mod .... do it , makes the game so much better

#11553 2 years ago
Quoted from Hapidance:

Fancy is nice but I’d settle for a moderately priced color DMD.
Used???

No such thing exists ....

#11556 2 years ago
Quoted from sparksterz:

The lack of plug and play units and ready to go software makes me a little hesitant to the whole thing though.

.

I went through this , had nothing but headaches, if they had plug and play that would be better for us who find it challenging..
Plus the 2 guys overseas were too much to deal with ...

#11561 2 years ago

Had this issue with mine ... adjusted the switch blades and i was fine ... but check disappearing post as well

1 week later
#11591 2 years ago
Quoted from Hapidance:

I’ve been working, ever so slowly, on a sign design

guessing if you have the mountain mod it will not fit !

#11606 2 years ago
Quoted from Scandell:

Anybody have a Getaway Playfield that are looking to maybe sell?

Reach out to Peter at Bathburg .. he just did a run of playfields..
The quality is just superb...

I love my Getaway,

great job !

#11818 2 years ago

ok I'm a complete idiot .... on my 3rd Getaway ...
still cant get the extra ball in Video mode ?
need a High Speed 2 The Getaway Book for Dummies!

#11824 2 years ago

hardest free ball in the history of pinball .... have version L2

when I see extra ball on the billboard there is noway of hitting it to collect. like most others I do the 5TH gear and maximize speed !

#11951 2 years ago
Quoted from AlexRogan84:

That goes for the mountain mod in Getaway,

so the mountain mod was to be a factory thing from day one , are you saying you would remove it should it have been made this way?

#11955 2 years ago
Quoted from tiltmonster:

They made a prototype and very few, if any, pins were sold with the Mt mod, it was cut due to costs

Im aware ... point was if the game was manufactured with the mountain, would you remove it ?
I personally like it and managed to get 1 of the prototypes.. think it actually looks great and doesn't impede the game...

#11966 2 years ago
Quoted from golfergordy:

when the switch error message first came up, the switch was still installed and only the actuator arm was broken

So if the actuator arm was broken the switch was not being activated... If a switch is not activated it will come up as error.... Guess that if you pressed the little button on the switch the error would clear as the switch would be recognized

#11978 2 years ago
Quoted from golfergordy:

WHAT DO YOU ESTIMATE THE SUCCESS RATE % IS FOR THE DIVERTER IN YOUR GETAWAY GAME TO PROPERLY RETURN THE BALL FROM THE SC TO THE LEFT FLIPPER

100% ... mine always functions as should

2 weeks later
#12018 2 years ago

Might have one... CPR... had a missing plastic in a set I ordered so they send me 2 of the missing Plastics and an extra complete set...
Just can't check till next weekend .
As Mr. Tantrum noted... maybe over tighting them

1 week later
#12039 2 years ago
Quoted from Mr_Tantrum:

I have a serious itch to purchase

Mine arrived flawless.. no issues and the clearcoat is amazing ...took it to my clearcoat guy to see if it was viable to do more coating .... he refused....

#12044 2 years ago

Luckily my playfield is in great shape ...just grabbed the extra in case ....
They do beautiful work you won't be disappointed.

#12084 2 years ago

Going to post a Buthamberg HS2 playfield for sale ...
Anybody from this group want one let me know ...
Rob
Sold my Getaway no longer required.

#12086 2 years ago
Quoted from bajm:

That didn’t last long. Anyone else wanna sell one?

Don't understand what you are trying to say ?... My Getaway was in exceptional condition with no wear.. sold the game. And the buyer figured he would never need it so why would I keep a playfield...
Let alone an excellent one... thought perhaps someone may need it...
