Good news came back from my LED digit supplier on a few items It looks like I'll be ordering in some more LED digits in January! So, get ready to see a handful of additional colors! What other color options would you love to see? RED is definite. GREEN is a strong possibility. YELLOW I'm not entirely sure on? I still think some people will prefer the WHITE with color filters, but variety for people that want native color digits is always nice.
For the entire month of January, I'll be offering a discount on BLUE led displays (as DIY Kits or assembled).
This sale is not active yet, but I'll make it happen by January 2nd and it'll be good for the whole month! The BLUE sets will be offered at the same price as AMBER sets if not slightly cheaper. This is due to having a lot more BLUE digits than the other colors right now. So if you've got a XENON, EMBRYON or any other machine that looks sweet with BLUE led digits -- January will be a perfect time to pull the trigger!
I truly want these to be one of the best display options available for Bally/Stern machines , so I'll be taking care of a few other items that have been on my to-do list to refine these displays a bit more. Always happy to hear suggestions/feedback too! If you've got any ideas, critiques, nice-to-have's on these displays that would make them even better, please send me a PM!
On that note, I'd like to know what people think of the current font & segment thickness. Years back I was looking at all the plasma glass fonts and was going to do something custom that matched my own preference in what an original display glass would look like. But after doing these displays & seeing how nice the thicker segments look myself -- and hearing other people's feedback, it's kind of changed my mind. Still, I'd like to know if there's any issues with the current look of the digits that are holding people back. The comma is a given.. not a deal killer for some people, but enough of a deal killer for others. I'll likely be addressing that going forward at some point. But aside from that, any gripes about the current style of the font? Are displays with thinner segments more of your thing? Let me know!
