I ordered the super shiny ones from pinball wizard bc i have lots of games with magnets and they are carbon core. Received my order very quickly and they are very nice and shiney. Price was good also bc i ordered 50 which gave a 25 percent discount. Highly recommend since pinball life dont seem to have stock anymore of these.
Quoted from Psw757:You happy with these super shiny from pinball wizard?
I need 20 good quality carbon core balls for my magnet games.
Yes they are very very nice and play very fast .... no issues in my dile with 5 magnets.
Quoted from Psw757:You using them in non magnetic games as well or are some of the other makes a bit better?
Trying to make a decision on what to buy in bulk to swap all my machines out at the same time.
Yep i used them im all games..... just like when pinball life use to sell them. Great price also when u buy 50 or more.
Quoted from parsonsaj:I think those are good balls but lately they always seem to be out of stock...
I think i bought most of them lol.... they are great quality ......
Quoted from mrgregb123:Ball Baron's chrome balls are 100% chrome. A ball from any other supplier that is 100% chrome will behave and accept magnetism exactly the same way. The balls you got from other vendors had to have been part carbon, which would explain how they didn't magnetize. However, chrome balls also resist scratching and pitting far better than carbon balls....so something seems off there.
Having said that I run Ball Baron's G10 and Ninja balls in all 6 of my machines including games with heavy magnet use such as Dialed In, Metallica, and TAF. The only time I've ever seen any magnetism effect is if the Sparky magnet (Metallica) or the Theatre magnet (DI) capture two balls at once. They will remain on the magnet after it turns off. A gentle nudge breaks them free. I'm fine with that trade-off which happens once every few weeks in exchange for super-shiny balls that hold up longer.
Ive also had better luck with the o so shiney carbon ones from pinball life and pinball wizard. .
Been using the super shiny carbon pinballs from pinball wizard in my games . I have around 1k games on my dile with them and they still look great . They are the same as the ones pinball life use to sell but i switched bc they stopped selling them. Also if u buy 50 or more u get a great discount.
