    Mentioned this in the original thread, but:

    As Ken said, this won't really work the same with AC.

    The only EMs with DC flippers are the last few gottliebs, all sorta rare.

    The amount of arcing, and how much the caps help, also depends on voltage, so since most EMs are 25V it's not going to matter as much.

    Ballys might benefit from it on the pops I guess?. I've heard of a few people putting caps on their Bally SS games and saying it did help with the arcing.
