Quoted from ArcadiusMaximus:Oh sweet. In that case that would be awesome if you could rig up an actual beacon. I did notice the LEDs flash at different speeds depending on modes and supper jack pots (PWM). So you'd loose a little bit of light show for a more authentic look.
Are you familiar at all with Jurassic Park topper? I wonder if any of your learnings here could be applied to that topper... for the cost of node board one could get access to the Goat Multiball perhaps.
