Hi Steve. I'd like to add an led strip to the trough area like you have. I have a 12V strip I can use, but would like to know how you wired it in. Nice job here btw. I've always thought adding two spots like you have would work great, now it's certain.
@Steveos-Gameroom
@Steveos-Gameroom 5 ай бұрын
You know…. I kinda have forgotten, but what makes sense to me is that I sent a long, long wire from the led strip all the way to the back of the playfield and then down in the bottom of the cabinet, then sent the same wire all the way to the front of the bottom cabinet to the largish sized circuit board below the left flipper (coin door pcb? I tink 12V is printed on the board near the male pin). There is an unused male pin there that is 12 volts DC. I know that it’s a long path to get the voltage, but it was just there and being unused, so I chose it. Now as far as the ground wire for the led strip, I kinda feel like I just found (with my multimeter) a common ground close by the led strip and only sent a short single positive wire. There’s very likely an easier way, but heck, I had the extra wire and I didn’t hack into any used existing 12v. Cheers to you and your project!

After several games these PPP flippers they seem to me to be more accurate and responsive overall. Ball hop seems to me to be less than the factory Sega setup and for an average player (me) they hit the mark and are consistent. They are definitely on the pricey side, but I do feel that the potential of their lasting performance due to their high-tolerance construction edges out the initial coin that I had laid out to get them. Plus.. they look extremely alien in an awesome way. No regrets with this flipper mod. Cheers and happy flipping!!
