installed a pinduino on my LOTR . I did not want the more uniform light stadium effect but used led strips on the backbox , trough, left rail ( in spots) and under the sword ramp, so cool!!, thanks for all the help eric!!

made a version of " hot rails" and put led strips on the nonvisible porttion of the ramps, and the backboard and trough, liking kind of red white and blue theme other than the colors for monger warmachine and whiplash of course, lots of playing with the programming to come!
looks like a fun project! a pinduino will give you a lot of options for different lighting effects and has 2 led ports so you can have one set of strips programmed different than the other.. go crazy!!
if you are looking just for simpler effects such as just blinking leds you can buy hardwired bulbs for this effect , i think comet has them now or a model train mod site would have them
have fun and update us when you get it done!
Quoted from twarr:Really impressive stuff. I've read through most of the thread and I admire all the hard work and effort that has been put into this project.
I saw the video with the addams family lights, but I was wondering if anyone have done GI's on a TAF and have a video they want to share? My ideas was when thing comes out the GI turns red (or blue maybe?) so it needs to be triggered by thing motor starting, then the multiball (so the magnets) where it is 'mayhem' with lots of patterns and green GI for swamp. The coolest thing of all though would be to do something to add to the warmup before multiball. Here the lightshow is already cool, but with RGB leds it could be taken to the next level.
Here's my problem though, my programming skills are so insanely weak. Hoping that there are anyone that has done already before or maybe I can pay some bucks to someone here willing to do the task?
Eric is pretty awesome with the hardware as well as with the software part,there is a whole bunch of copy and paste lighting routines to play with ,I have like zero programming skills and had a lot o fun and learned a bunch putting pinduionos on a few machines
