Thank you VERY much for taking the time to detail this and posting. This is going to be super useful information for those installing the Neo Fusion pinball mods on Stern Jurassic Park. I will definitely be referencing this to others that are installing this on their machine.

Thanks again!!

Sounds like the artblades adhesion is the issue. They may have not been applied firmly or the adhesion did not fully cure.

Either way the easiest thing to do is to pick up this thing clear double sided adhesive tape “Frost King” and put it at the top of the side art between the cabinet and the art. Here is the link: https://www.homedepot.com/p/Frost-King-0-625-in-x-54-ft-Window-Tape-V5854/308889360?g_store=3832&source=shoppingads&locale=en-US&mtc=Shopping-VF-F_D25H-G-D25H-Multi-Multi-NA-Feed-PLA-NA-NA-GiftCenter&cm_mmc=Shopping-VF-F_D25H-G-D25H-Multi-Multi-NA-Feed-PLA-NA-NA-GiftCenter-71700000075074702-58700006462421696-92700058414792291&gclid=CjwKCAiAouD_BRBIEiwALhJH6FrBkQmV6zCFJEsJw05He4xDzyuOuq9gbixf1ZgzO1F-z_A_pGJvGRoClcAQAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds

Mount it firmly on the cabinet side first and just to be safe keep the light bar off and let it cure for 24-48 hours. It shouldn’t budge after that. This way you can leave everything in tact and it will be an easy fix for you.

I also use it when installing mirror blades to take the slack/gap out (flushes them to the cabinet 100%) so that the mirrors don’t scrape and it gives you tons of room. You would be surprised how much removing that gap does.

I was saying that the ultra thin double sided frost king tape would go between the cabinet and side art as he still has the Pin Stadium mounts on it. However if it is a fresh install of side art then it (which is what it sounds like) sounds like the art blades didn’t have time to cure.

So if this was just installed it’s possible that using a little heat from a hair dryer could be used to reactivate the side art adhesion(press it firmly back on). Then let them sit for 24-48 hours before installing the light bar. If for some reason that does not work then the frost king tape should do the trick for this situation.

Either way the Magna Mounts can easily be removed if you go to sell or trade the game. Easy!!

Tons of requests for before and after pics of the Neos on Stern Walking Dead pinball. Pics are worth a thousand words.

Note: Settings in Pin Stadium app for this pic are 100% Red and 30% white

There are many installing Pin Stadium pinball mods on Stern Munsters and I have put together suggested locations for the GI and Flasher(UV+Glow) connections. The flasher is the Dragway flasher on this machine.

Phenomenal Before and After pics to say the least

Are you unplugging them using the cable that goes into the service port or are you pulling the power in and out from the power connector that goes into the GI module?

The reason I ask is that the most reliable method is the GI module side. You can keep doing it until you see them cycle colors and the “LEDNet****” network pops up. As long as you get 4 good power off and on pulls that should do it. Feel free to email me and I can respond even quicker. Now worries we will be figure it out with this set you received from previous owner.

Very happy to hear that you are pleased with the results and UV+Glow trigger on those two other machines.

Sweet!!! Slugfest with Neos..... Looking really good! I noticed that you have not done the “Change Device” in the app. This will give you independent control of the RGB (colors) and Warm White. This will give you maximum proper control.

—
The Neos have a New WiFi chip in them with a new "White" menu that must be unlocked. So after you get everything installed you will need to do these simple steps:

---
1. Perform a "Long Press" with your finger by touching and holding down on the Pinball Machine Name(Device) until a menu pops up
2. Select "Change Device Type"
3. Move selection from "RGB/W" to "RGB&W"

I hope this helps!

For Williams Slugfest I would try the Homerun flashers in the backbox homerun area. That may be cool or possibly intense

The other more mellow alternative would be to trigger it off of the last inlay bulb just before the home plate. So each time a player scores the UV+Glow on the Neo Pin Stadiums fires!!

Let us all know which you decide to land on.

Thank you for your order first off and also thanks for the positive feedback. I’m am pumped to know that you are satisfied with the results.

Your Iron Maiden is now like a new machine all over again!! Fear of Dark mode takes on an entirely new meaning when you trigger the UV+Glow flasher from the Pharoah. Something that takes the jackpots to new levels. Enjoy your machine!

For those of you installing the Neo Pin Stadium pinball mods on Stern Iron Maiden Pro/Premium/LE models. Here are the suggested locations to connect and trigger from.

The Neo Pin Stadium pinball mods installed on Stern Tron pinball (Pro/LE). Huge Before and After results that you can expect. Can you say Tron 2.0?

Note: The app settings are 100% Blue and 0% White and it's amazingly perfect!!!!

Also the recommend UV+Glow flasher trigger location is on the kickout here. I played around with a few locations other than the originally suggested bank targets flasher that fires when you hit them(which is cool too).

However I feel this one pulses much better and has higher impact on the playing experience. Red arrow indicates the newly updated flasher trigger location I am referring to. Enjoy!

Sweet!! Nice move on taking the advice on that location. As its the best place in my opinion. Glad you love it!!

I find myself just trying to start Fear of Dark mode so that I can see it in action, thus tossing all rules to the side for the moment.

Other modes are killer too, but Fear of Dark is the ultimate now with the UV+Glow!! Make the jackpot shot ultra rewarding.

This post is to help those that need clarification of the difference between the Pin Stadiums and the Neo Pin Stadiums: https://pinstadium.com/product/neo_pinstadium_pinball_mods/

Thanks for posting this up and for the tips. Sometimes the alligator clips can work wonders!!

If you are getting a flicker I would suggest reconnecting your GI to make sure it’s solid. If for any reason that does not resolve it, shoot me an email and I can walk through some diagnostics with you to resolve it.

Your games looks excellent and thanks for the support!!

I will be posting up here shortly some updates to the Neo Fusions pinball mods install for Stern The Walking Dead. I found some even better trigger points for the Orion's Belt flashers along with color settings. Stay tuned.......

neo_logo_idea02_w_blur (resized).png

Okay here are the recommended trigger points for the Neo Fusions on Stern The Walking Dead.

Well Walker #19: UV+Glow
Prison(Top) #26: Diamond White
Left Dome #28: Red
Right Dome #29: Red
Shaker Motor: Green

If you do this on your Walking Dead pinball(Pro/Premium/Limited Edition) you are in for quite the treat!!!

Several have asked for pics of the Pin Stadium pinball mods installed on Spooky Pinball Alice Coopers Nightmare Castle (ACNC).

Here is a great before and after and then also the UV+Glow flasher caught in action during a dark mode

For those that just purchase the Pin Stadium pinball mods for ACNC mentioned above, here are the specific easy to do instructions for the Plug & Play install

spooky_acnc_pinball_mods (resized).jpg

Wow thank you and that’s some excellent feedback too!!! Glad I could help and for the TZ settings l suggest a nice deep space Blue at 100% and then dial in the white to your liking starting at 0% and gradually introduce it up to 30% (make sure you unlock the white menu per mikepmcs below)

Somewhere between there is a nice sweet spot depending on your personal taste.

I would say run them at 35-50% max and you should be good to go!

Well it’s official Pin Stadium Neos pinball mods are already getting installed on Stern Led Zeppelin LE. Amazing results and this machine benefits tremendously from it. See for yourself.

UV+Glow triggered from the shake motor is amazing (especially with the colors on this playfield) and yes Stern left room specifically for Pin Stadiums to mount above the side lighting.

Wow!!!

I will share recommended app color settings shortly. If you are wondering if this machine was going to need them, then let this help you to decide.

Thanks!!

The factory side lights are decorative and do not have much of any effect on the playfield. The best way to explain it is they are like an equalizer effect but don’t provide playfield illumination.

On occasions you see some very mild dim ambient light on the edges of the playfield or reflecting off the wire forms but it quickly passes since the lights are constantly running patterns.

Definitely needs Pin Stadiums for sure more than ever. The UV+Glow on the shaker motor is miraculous. That is where most are installing these and I have to agree.

A few had questions about the fitment of the Neos on Stern Led Zeppelin. They left room for the Magna-Mounts at the top and it's a perfect fit!!

For the many of you that are installing the Neos in Led Zeppelin LE. I have received a lot of emails asking the best color settings for the Neo Pin Stadiums, so I’m going to post them up here.

I find that the Orange(heading towards Red) spectrum color band does amazing on this machine. I have the color setting in the app at 100% and run the white lights between 5-10%(to your liking). It sets the mood very nicely and gives superb visibility, makes the artwork pop while maintaining that concert feel. I also run a “Functions” color changing pattern that is very impressive using the app, but I want to fine-tune it more before I post it up here

Today was an extremely busy day the Pin Stadium for LZLE as collectors are starting to receive their machines and see the tremendous benefit to lighting up the playfield on this machine.

As a reminder to those that are considering the product for this new Stern Led Zeppelin machine.

To clarify any confusion:

The factory Stern lights that come on the side are decorative and running blinking patterns to the music. Do not expect playfield illumination(you’ll get some very faint hints of light that are dim as the patterns pass by but it’s hard to notice much) as this not the design of the factory lights.

Just have realistic expectations and understand the function/purpose of them so that you are not disappointed

With that said, if you have yet to receive your machine you will see what I mean. Any questions feel free to hit me up here or email.

It’s shoots great and I do suggest turning down the flipper coil power from the maced factory setting of 255 to 225. It will save you airball shots to the center ramp and rejects from it hitting the backboard.

Also keep an eye on your Electric Magic spinner. Mint spinner was put on backwards(upside down) which caused it to weight down the wrong way. As a result the ball was hitting it and bending it and it stopped spinning. I was able to pinch the spinner pull it out and flip it around and it works great now. Stickers are upside down though now but it works like a champ now.

The game looks beautiful though!!

Oh yes you will love the Pin Stadium UV+Glow triggered by the shaker motor. This compliments the game so well.

Glad you like the new Neo USB system and your keen to notice that. It’s going to offer some nice advantages for the product.

Man you have the perfect museum of Pin Stadiums displayed on your machines. Looks killer!!

As always, I appreciate you supporting the product. Always trying to improve things for you all (and me too).

Well put!!! As many know, I like to integrate features and upgrades/improvements onto the product line whenever possible.

Now that you have officially organically acknowledged the benefits of the "Konekt" system on your own, then you have "unlocked" a well deserved explaination of this. So its time for me to officially unveil it here with some nice visuals to demonstrate how it works. Keep in mind that these are now shipping and have been for a little while. This is not an additional upgrade or charge, pricing is still the same as they will be included with each kit

I want to share this feature with the Pin Stadium community because the design of this I found it to work wonders for me personally It adds versatility along with even easier "Plug & Play" installation. This also helps to eliminate accidentally reversing the GI(Blue and White) and UV+Glow(Red and Green) cables. You know we have all made this harmless mistake at least once

No worries, the regular alligator clips(now in adapter form) and wire taps will still come standard so that you can be sure to cover all the bases and have what you need for any situation for ANY triggering point from the machine. The cables that come with your kit will have a female "Y" adapter end on them and that is where the "Quick Connect" game specific adapters will go.

What I am doing is including a game specific Konekt adapter for the pinball machine you select when purchasing them from the website. The adapter will be provided based upon the most popular recommendation for the trigger location and if the adapter is available in the "Konekt" line whenever possible I will throw it in for you no charge. So no worries about needing to request it, I will be your personal butler and make sure it's in there for you. So when you order for Jurassic Park or Led Zeppelin I will include a shaker motor "Y" adapter for the connections if that is the best current recommendation. No more wire taps on that. Woohoo!!!

Here is the new GI Module design and the "Konekt" system components/function. Clean, slick, slim, and easy!!:
pinball-mods-connectors_psl (resized).png

Here is a pic of the Neos mounted above the side blinking Stern lights. So that you can see these clear with no problem and fit perfectly.

Also it demonstrates the function of the factory side lights so that you can see that they’re running patterns and there’s no way to properly illuminate the playfield the way that they are designed.

In addition to that when they are full on (for very brief moments through the game just for a few seconds at a time) they are not bright enough either since their design from the factory is to decorate the side wall of the cabinet and not for playfield GI illumination or playfield flasher effects .

This time the Neo Pin Stadiums have the white light on so you can see what this machine looks like with that setting mixed with the orange and pinks!

I will let you guess which one if Neos “On” and “Off”

Figured this would be a good picture (Neos on of course) to help explain to others what they will find once they get their machine.
