Hello, I purchased a dragon topper for MMR. It has a 7 led strip on bottom and two small leds for the eyes. Both are tied into one set of alligator clips. One for positive(red) and one for ground (black). I was instructed to hook it up to 12v in cabinet. However, when I had the machine on for awhile, both leds starting to smoke! They were red hot? Is this because 12v is too much for these? Should I just plug into GI instead? Thank you!!

Sounds like the mod wasn’t wired properly, wrong resistor or resistor installed incorrectly. You can try gi, but It likely won’t work either if it’s 12v mod. How did you connect it to the game? Where did you get it?
