    Quoted from PinballPlanet:

    Why can't you just change the solenoid and microswitches out for different, more powerful ones?

    Because the whole game runs on one of those laptop transformer power supplies. Not sure what the voltage is (12VDC); but it's not what a regular pinball runs on for solenoid voltages.

    My daughter has one we bought for $89. The original flipper rings were like 1/32" thick (think rubber band). I changed the flipper rubber to a regular flipper ring and the flippers became sluggish just from the added weight of the thickness of the rings.

    Quoted from PinballPlanet:

    Then how are these other gamers trickin'-up the electronics of the originals to look so cool?

    What I saw was enhanced LEDs, flipper buttons and some toys. All of which you can get to run on 12VDC. I haven't seen anyone swap in different coils. Looking cool and having stronger flipper coils are two different things.
