Quoted from Davi:2. I had to change the process: boards will now be SMD fabricated as much as possible (flashers remains THT). This means consistent quality, and faster order fulfilment. The automated placement process costs more, but I am not going to increase the price
I am actually FOR this change. Faster production, and more available parts as TH stuff becomes more and more phased out.

Quoted from HeavyMetalPoet:Davi, that appears to be the orientation of the wires. You wouldn’t think that would be right. Mine is completely torn down at the moment. Doing a full restoration/upgrade on it. Looking forward to your door lamp board!

I verified with my game, too.
This is interesting, as it means that the ramps were assembled wrong.

Quoted from chillme:Davi,
My board showed up today. Shipping was faster then I expected via mail.
Will hopefully install tonight.
Thanks

Right down the street from you. As of yesterday, haven't seen it yet. Am on way home now. I am hoping!
Mine showed up today. Took lunch off of work and installed it. Very nice! The 'flasher' layout is interesting - I'm used to seeing a single point of light from the originals which means the insert has a bright hotspot. With these LEDs boxed around the lamp, when they fire it gives the insert a more filled appearance. Very nice.

Quoted from Davi:I have to redesign the board and the harness also. And due to the height of 906 flashers, I need to use 2 tiny PCB's with spacers on top of the main lampboard.
If this sounds OK, I can work on it.
If it helps make the decision, I'd be getting one too.
Quoted from fast_in_muskoka:you still running incandescents ?
I still run incandescent in my flashers. I like the fade out of the incandescent flashers.
The only incandescnt bulbs I have are the visible ones. Inserts with condoms, and pop bumpers.

That is gorgeous, and as far as I can see, matches what was in prototype/sample games.
I'll be in for a couple.
Quoted from Davi:Wedge socket version is done. The board is compatible with:
Feature lights: all wedge base incandescent bulb and LED's (type 555)
Flashers: all wedge base incandescent/LED flashers (type 906)

Just realized and thought to ask - does your boards mimic the original header plug that is present on Sample games?
Quoted from Davi:Yes, it's based on a red sample PCB/header design.
4 pin IDC .156" on each mini PCB.[quoted image]
Awesome, I actually have one (and the wiring) already with my Sample, so was curious. Thanks!

Quoted from mmr61184:Coyote what about those of us who have prod style games do we just have to add a connector to the flasher harness?
Davi's board comes with a wire harness - it simply plugs inline to a few molex connectors under the playfield. Not a huge pain at all, you'll be fine.
