Ok decided to put in two blue LED strips and mount my Billies Camaro. I was going to tie into the lower ramp flasher. I always thought flashers were 12v so ordered 12v comet LED strips. Well I guess it’s not 12v. Lights do not come on. I also tested them on the coin door light socket and no luck there either.
Tested lights on my Stern Dracula and monster bash remake coin door light and they work fine as do the red and blue in Hoppers Bronco. So any idea on where I can tie them into? I do have a 12v switching power supply and also a 12v backbox splitter.

Quoted from LTG:

Flashers are often 12 volts but they hit them briefly with 20 volts for the flash.
LTG : )

Ok. Any other area that is 12v I can tie into?

Quoted from Aquapin:

If you just want them to be on constantly, you can pull from the 12V off the power distribution board in the backbox (CN6).

Ok thank you.

Quoted from Aquapin:

Flashers on Stern Spike are only 5V.

And the coin door isn’t 12v either. I couldn’t find anything online. Thanks for your help. I have some spare light sockets and will just use them. $19 wasted. Oh well.
