    Quoted from benheck:

    Haha yes a coil driving FET would be much larger. But I was stuffing this in a project and couldn't help taking a trolling photo

    Ben has small FETs!

    Quoted from Wahnsinniger:

    Makes sense. Williams P2K tried to do it, Highway is doing it, Multimorphic is doing it. It makes sense Stern would consider this as a future for the industry.
    Another indication would be to see Stern playfields with full length support brackets, that allow a populated playfield to be safely pulled out all of the way and placed on a flat surface, like P2K has. They could start putting them on new machines to test before officially announcing it.

    I designed a FAST Frame/Rail system a couple years ago to enable swapping games in a cabinet and allow you to do away with a rotisserie when working on them outside of the cabinet. It has been on The back burner while we finished up our new pinball control hardware. Interest has been strong and increasing so we will be producing them for others later this year. There are some posts about it here:
