Quoted from Vitty:

First adjustment to do when you guys get your games is to adjust your lower flippers to be parallel with the lane guides. This greatly helps reduce/eliminate the ball hang ups on the flippers from the inlanes and greatly improves flipper flow. This is a must!
I've attached a photo here of how you roughly want them aligned. You want to aim the left flipper at the 'v' between the skeleton body and arm and for the right flipper aim roughly at the top of the tallest knuckle of the skeleton's hand on that side. On mine and on photos i've seen on here it's a fairly big adjustment. Made a huge difference.[quoted image]

Quoted from Chetrico:

I'm new to JJP machines. How to I move the LCD to access cable for topper?

Quoted from Pinballomatic:

Pull the top left or right corner forward to release the magnetic grip. It's mounted on a big pivot arm.

Quoted from PinMonk:

Why yes, yes I do. Thank you for mentioning that, affording me an unexpected opportunity to plug the Twipy-nominated Tibetan Breeze flipper coil cooling kits, available now for Spike and Spooky, coming very soon for JJP machines.
They're a very different kind of actually useful playfield protector.

Quoted from Vitty:

Nope

Quoted from romulusx:

Will shit!Now I’m lost.

Quoted from Vitty:

LOL, let the photo be your guide....or use a straight edge(rule or similar) on the metal lane guide that feeds the flipper and make sure the flippers are roughly parallel.

Quoted from Jecco74:

I have the Tibetan Breeze on Stranger Things and AIQ. Do you have one yet for GnR? I am expecting my CE today. I did have the LE for several months and when I had friends over to play the right flipper would fade terribly after an hour of play. I definitely need this for the CE.

Quoted from dbarker:

Just got my ce and cant find where this plugs in. All other connections were up through back box and sitting on top to be plugged in. Anyone else have this issue? Is it imside the back box? Directions dont say that.

Quoted from dbarker:

Hey I really appreciate that, directions made it seem like all connections were up top, never said to go into back box! Should have know. As the cord is longer. Almost ready to rock!

Quoted from Skyemont:

"300".

Quoted from dbarker:

I literally took pics at every step of unbox, move to my basement ( which i did myself ) and set up. Its like having a new baby and you keep taking pictures. I have never gotten this worked up over a pinball machine. Its incredibly awsome and i havent even turned it on yet.

Quoted from PinMonk:

It's being tested right now. jjGnR uses a different flipper coil (a FL-11629, the largest) for the lower right that gets VERY HOT. In a 2hr test, it registered 219.8F, the hottest by far of any coil tested so far. With cooling I was able to get it to 140F-155F, a massive improvement of 65-80F less, but still not where I'd like it to be. The left and upper right coils are 15411s so they're good enough with the cooling system. I need to solve getting the lower right down another 10-20F, so it stays below the threshold for the slightest fade. There's another test this week once Karl DeAngelo gets the updated equipment and another temp gauge (so he can monitor 4 temps at once in real time) I sent. He is live-streaming the testing with the temps on-screen again. It's pretty interesting to watch.
So, short answer, jjGnR will have Tibetan Breeze kits very soon, but not quite yet.

Quoted from ceterumnet:

Have you toyed with / thought about using TEC?

Quoted from Vitty:

You bet, happy to help. I have direct word from JJP that they will be sending out splitters, not new boards.

Quoted from Freakyguy666:

Do these cooling systems generate any noise? If so, have you measured decibels on a meter?

Quoted from Tonic67:

I checked out your site and read the write up on flipper fade. Great info and nice innovation.

Quoted from PinMonk:

Super low - that's my obsession. I hate unnecessary noise. I use the same fans as I use in the Stern power supply kit. For two coil cooling fans running together, it's around 16dB total which you can't hear at all with the machine running, and only may be able to hear in a quiet room with no pins in play.
The fans that will be tested on Karl DeAngelo's jjGnR live stream tomorrow are a little louder, but one is about 20% more CFM and the other is 50% more, so I need to see the temps it can hold on that problematic right flipper, especially, and also see what Karl thinks the sound levels are like. On my test bench, the small bump in sound is not bad at all. I don't think it will be a problem.

Quoted from Freakyguy666:

I wouldnt expect to hear any of the fans during gameplay but obviously in standby mode is the concern as I absolutely hate the fan noise from the Stern especially.
That said, what is the downside of replacing the GnR right flipper coil entirely with one that doesn’t generate as much heat? I figure there must be some obvious reason so thanks in advance for humoring me with an answer to the question!

Quoted from zermeno68:

Of all the CE owners here... do you instantly add a playfield protector the minute you unbox the game? If so... do you get it only from JJP or someone else?

Quoted from Tonic67:

I was informed yesterday they are working on the solution but did not get details. JJP has provided great service and support so I'm not concerned. Either way will work as stated previously so I'll go with whatever direction they provide. The splitter is the much cheaper direction though. Sound should be crazy once the sound bar is active.

Quoted from cybevenom:

OUCH. Just watched an unboxing of an CE on stream of Warlock 'n roll pinball and they found out on stream that their cabinet was cracked in several places when setting the game up. A shipping nightmare and worst case scenario when unboxing a brand new machine. I feel so sorry for those guys. Going from a high to rockbottom.

Quoted from fuko:

I was unconvinced, so I looked at the Wonka manual at the schematics for the Sound Amp board (the GnR manual seems to be in progress and doesn't have the Sound Amp PCB documented yet). As Vitty already pointed out, the schematics show the optional Aux Out jack is indeed supplied by a branch directly off the Audio In jack input. So it would seem a jack splitter would accomplish the same thing since the soundbar is powered separately anyway[quoted image]

Quoted from bigsepe:

Hey guys can someone look at their upper cab and see if I am missing something sort of like a finisher plastic for the cab, my dialed in has it but my GnR does not. I was told to create my own ticket for cables to get my soundbar topper to work.
So I may as well ask for everything else I believe is owed.[quoted image][quoted image]

If you install a playfield protector and hate it you can take it off fairly easily, super easy if you cut it off.

Here is a 60 second video that has most of the attract lighting action

wow that sucks... clearly it was dropped during shipping. It will be interesting to see what happens since they accepted the game. Its probably lucky they had it all on video.

What is "tip and tell".. I've always been able to have my delivery company let me unbox and inspect.. doesn't take very long and then i tip the guy for helping me getting into the downstairs garage..
