Round Rock, TX
I just brought mine home from TPF. It took me a while to get it not to drain on the hard plunge, but now it hits the flipper and all my girls are happy! Daddy likes it too!

Quoted from yzfguy:'sposed to drain on a hard plunge.
Not in my house.
I didn't mind, but that was the first thing my wife complained about, and if momma's not happy nobody's happy.
Well, the "fix" came out for the hard plunge and the family has adapted, so back to stock. I did get the time to install some new green stand up targets at the lock (there were yellow ones there!) along with some mantis protectors. TIGHT fit, but I'm happy with the results.

Quoted from RumRunner9:I recently picked up some Mantis lock protectors. It does seem a tight fit. Any install tips before I start drilling new holes under the play field?
Put them in as tight to the PF as possible. Try test fitting your switches.

Quoted from JosephT:My lost mine coil kickouts in such a way that if you try and "catch" it with the right flipper, it rolls up the right inlane, triggers the river letter, rattles at the rubber above the river switch and then comes back down triggering another river letter.
So basically if prepped right, it'll advance your river letters 2x with each kickout
Is this cheating? Never heard of anyone else with a lost mine kickout that behaves like mine.
I can find out what coil is in my game if anyone cares
That's the way mine is - except once in a while you don't hit it right and it hits the first letter but then goes either STDM or in the outlane (can't remember which) . I think the PAPA machine in the tutorial is set up that way too - you still have to have a bit of skill to get the letters.

Quoted from Blackbeard:My kickout sends ball to right flipper and I'm able to kick it up through the rollover, spotting a letter.
I can do that and live about 60% of the time. The other 40% it continues through the outlane. I've since changed strategies...

Quoted from urbanledge:Well get them out or you'll be in trouble.
That circuit is 14v (maybe 20v) so use 194s like the manual says!
You could get LEDs that will take it, but yes I agree - if they are regular playfield LEDs they will melt.
