Looking great so far! Fading between brightness levels isn't supported yet?

Bump. Hope more people see this.

I believe there has been a big need for this just as much as the LED OCD board. I'm glad you're enjoying this, I realize you weren't that enthused about it before. Seems to be paying off as it looks great!

Very nice! Will fading between levels be next? Flashing straight on and off, like the start of Stiff in the Coffin, is the main reason we need something like this. It's severely disorienting. When one of our games does that I have to look away for a second. To me that's the main drawback of LEDs in GI. It turns a feature that was once nice into a major annoyance.

You know what I'm going to request now right?

Why not break the rectifier up into 4 seperate heat sinked diodes?

So if the seperate diodes don't work could you go with a cooling stack for the rectifier like in a PC? Heat paste, sink, and fan?

That would certainly be cheaper than developing your own solution too wouldn't it?

I sensed no snarkiness in his response. Why are you taking it personally?

I don't see why you would want fading only part of the time. The games were designed with incandescent lamps and the light shows are based around the inherent fading effects of those. Flashing GI is very disorienting to me.

And speaking of disorienting, a list of Williams WPC games that (in my opinion) would really benefit from smoothing flashing/dimming GI:

Addams Family during the start of multiball
White Water when locking balls
Creature with various events and attract mode
Doctor Who with multiball and attract mode

Creature does quite a bit of dimming yes.

See this video, I expect the results to be nothing short of spectacular. Are you getting a test board? How does the left string lit ramp work? Looks like a GI string too.

If the high frequencies/duty cycles are causing premature LED failures why not add some smoothing caps to the strobed output? That will give the LEDs smooth DC voltage.

Any timeline for release?

If the strobing frequency does not change between brightness levels why does the camera react and resonate as if it does?

That must be it m00dawg, adjustments to shutter speed to compensate for different exposure levels. Lower shutter speed means less flicker (flashes blend together) higher shutter speed means flashes are more perceivable.

In the case of LED OCD, The Lamp Matrix. Whooooahhh.

Who the heck makes the ghostbuster ROMs? You always hear about them, but pay no attention to the man behind the curtain.

I'm not even sure you would have enough space in the backbox to run both boards. I believe Herg said you would have to locate one of them inside the cabinet.

Are the backboxes for widebody games bigger too?

Harold needs a new pair of shoes!

I honestly can't imagine why anyone would use LED flashers.

Wow, looks more like a flasher locked on there.

Get this... F14, all LED flashers. And warming resistors removed!

The only thing he builds himself is the wiring harnesses.
