Another dimension of pinball… Lit Kit Flippers in the Twilight Zone.

Lately I’ve been having fun working on this mod kit which includes a new mini lighted flipper created specially for TZ. The colors are based on those in the original flyer.

Quoted from horseflesh:

I don't see a magnet on your bridge diverter... how do you have your game set up to make a fast moving ball not bounce back out?

Not sure but it has always just worked whether it be a regular ball (or the power ball). I did read about some having an issue with that or even that a magnet mod is offered to help prevent it. On this game the ball just tucks right next to it. I’ll look at it closer to see what detail/angle of the setup may be helping it work.

For ball bounce back, another method that may work for the ramp depending on how much bounce there is would be to put a bit of this or similar foam on the metal contact part where the ball hits. I'm not sure if I'm linking to the correct product, but the one I'm intending is a rubbery foam and was in an isle next to the felt pieces: https://www.hobbylobby.com/Crafts-Hobbies/Basic-Crafts/Craft-Foam/Black-Foam-Sheet---12%22-x-18%22-x-5mm/p/111098

I also like the other suggestions above, and the latch/wire swinging back to catch the ball from bouncing back as shown in the photo seems like a very nice pinball way of doing it too. Basically functioning almost like the skill shot on the ball launch in a way.
