Quoted from KSUWildcatFan:It's not been a good run for me with these lately.
And yet, my High Speed (not clearcoated) continues to be great. I don't get it.
Did you mention a while back that you're only having this issue with Mata Hari hardtops? If so, is there something mounted on the bottom of the playfield in that area that may causing this?
Just a thought.
Quoted from mrm_4:I really want to do the yopsicles on a project. I always put LEDs under my clear coated playfields and hardtops. I left 47s in my Strato flite at first when I went the protector route and after one night of playing the heat from the inserts deformed the playfield protector. I love 44s for GI in older games but you can’t risk it under inserts. That heat loves to mess with plastic and clear coat.
Have you seen/tried these yet for GI? https://www.cometpinball.com/products/retro-smd-bullet-bulbs
I like the look of a filament bulb for GI and so I decided to give these a try. I went with the cool white to add more brightness and color to the playfield and plastics. I really like them. But for inserts and backbox I went with regular 1SMD LED's.
CF2 (resized).jpgCF5 (resized).jpgQuoted from ROMM:So are these things dated? How do you know you are not getting one that has been stored in a hot warehouse for too long? Sorry if these questions have been answered. Didn't see any of this information on the Outside edge website. I was also trying to find where their physical store location is at (if in a hot or humid area).
They are located in Heath, Ohio.
What's the best way to deal with drop targets after a hardtop installation? Did you put a piece of hardtop material on top of each one to make up for the new playfield height, or is it nothing to worry about?
