Hey! In the club with my recent ST LE purchase. One issue I’m seeing is upon starting a game the Vengeance ship does its thing but sometimes it selects and starts the mission for me. I’m assuming it could be a switch making when Vengence is shaking. Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks!

Thanks for the advice. I’ll dive into it tomorrow and report back.

Thanks Nokoro for the link in the post. It was absolutely the drop falling off the ledge. Added two small washers and she plays as she should now. Thanks to you and DaveH for reaching out. I’m also looking for the blackout mod that use to be available. Found one at pinball-mods.com but kind of pricy. Any suggestions? For Kilgon multi ball this is a must IMO. Thanks again! Rob

Quoted from Nokoro:

Glad that fixed it. It is a very common problem.
FYI, that drop target ledge might crack with washers attached. Mine did and ironically played perfectly after breaking. Some people use a thin strip from an old credit card to put behind the ledge and even out the pressure a bit.

Good to know! Thanks again.

Quoted from Happy81724:

Picking up an Le soon. Loved the pro we owned so excited for the LE. What are the major differences? Any major ones between the prem/LE besides cosmetic and the side rail lights?

Best looking LE Stern ever put out! Vengence shakes front to back. Dips down upon defeat. Lighted badges on the head. Those side armor lasers though..

Quoted from DaveH:

I’m going to disagree with some others here. Yes, firing it is the same as 1 shot at the target getting you closer to Vengeance. However, that’s a waste in my opinion. You don’t just want to battle, you want to win. So be as full as you can when you start Vengeance. Then after starting it, hit the trapped ball, then during the ball saver fire every ball that gets to your flippers at the target under the Vengeance or the lit white ramps. Near the end of the ball saver, fire every torpedo you have. If you do that right, you will be close to the last shot to destroy the Vengeance. And if your timing is right, the ball saver will give you back anything you lost while firing photons.
I used to play it carefully, and one night after having a few, I tried this full assault. I destroy it much more regularly since switching. I love hearing the fanfare music after destroying it.

Killer strategy! Gonna try it right now!!

Quoted from mbrave77:

Ive had my vault premium about a month. Ball constantly gets stuck on that rubber under the pops. I can nudge it out but dont like wasting nudges! Any solution?

I put two small rubbers under the regular sling rubber. Reduces it almost completely.

So myself and Speedracer773 are both looking for the blackout mod that kapsreiter has previously made. He said he would do a small run if we get enough people interested. I believe 5 is what he required but I’m sure more is better. If anyone is interested reach out to myself or Speedracer773 and we can get this in the works. Thanks!!

Quoted from Happy81724:

What is it and how much?

During Klingon multiball or whenever the laser is in use is will kill all the GI to make it more of an immersive experience. Very cool ! I think he was around $50 or so. Worth every penny IMO.

#9585 3 years ago

Yea Vengence mod is different. Anyone else who’s interested let us know !

#9594 3 years ago
Quoted from kapsreiter:

The drop target shelf plastic can crack and cause this. I super glued mine and put a little clear scotch tape on it. Works perfect now.

Props to kapsreiter for rerunning the blackout mod. Put mine in today. Easy to install and soooooo cool! Thanks again man.

This is common with any drop target really when you hit it dead on with velocity.

Quoted from Happy81724:

Anyone know if these are for sale still? I want art or mirror blades for my LE but can’t find any
[quoted image]

These are the ones I have for my LE! They look great.

Nothing to do with either. The bracket that holds the coil needs to be tweaked a bit. Centers the coil better for no hum.

#10194 2 years ago

Unless you’re gear is ancient then by all means replace.

I had issues with fuses blowing and all kinds of wonky stuff. I took the ground braid out of the equation with the lockdown bar and haven’t had an issue since. Plays 100% !!
