Dear Collective,

Has anyone considered replacing the 12 digit 100v alphanumeric plasma display (in the playfield) with a modern low voltage LED equivalent.
I know there are replacements for the score/credit displays, i just wondered if anyone had gone that step further.

now that looks interesting, thank you for that (i did google beforehand but didn't come across that)
blocked here at work due to dropbox so will have a look when i get home.
thanks again

I have emailed to request 2 kits, one to replace the alpha display and one to replace the 2 x score displays and the credit/match display.

i'll report back when they arrive and i have had chance to build them

Okay so the kit has arrived, doesn’t look too bad to upgrade, a few bits on the display driver board and a few bits on the I/O board and disabling the high voltage section of the PSU.

I can happily report it is a resounding success.
The work to replace the components on the I/O board and display driver board was quite straightforward.
It all worked first time too.
