Holy crap! Is there something I should know like your expecting an electronic pulse from a thermonuclear warhead?

I'm interested as well. Will double check and see what I need.

Thanks!
Duane

I allways find it such a PITA when you replace a switch and have to desolder the existing diode, I'd rather just have a ton of these the deal with trying to find one when I need one.  I don't know how many times I've run to Radio Shack looking for one and have to buy a mixer pack and get 30 usless ones so I can find 10 I need.

Man you guys do alot of board repairs!!

Over the years I have barely needed 10 diodes and 10 transistors.

I can't even count how many diodes I've had to replace over the last 5 years on games that I've bought.  As for transistors, I've had to replace a few, but it's always a pain in a** to find these things at a good price in small qty locally.  Figured I might as well take advantage of working for an electronics disti, and offer these up to the group.  (seeing as I would never go through 100pcs of each, which is the min buy for me)

Basically these are fairly generic parts to have on hand if you own more than a few pins, for those just in case moments.  And at these prices, why not keep a few on hand?

Maybe the games you buy don't have PCB hacks?  (or the games that do you pass on?)

I can also look into offering up fuses if the interest is there?  Which I'm sure even HP5P has had to replace now and again.

Doug:

I am sure the guys appreciate your efforts, I was just making a comment. I fortunately have access to many parts through my office, we stock much of the generic stuff and when not, I often get my distributor to "sample" me parts for free. Keep up the good work.  

And yes, I am selective in what I buy.

Fuses!! YES! Every fricking game I buy seems to need a few replaced. Amazing how many times I have found incorrect fuses on games.

I hear diode leads also can be used when you can't find a decent toothpick around.

Just riding your a** a little Menace. Maybe you want to break down those Cosco sized orders for these group buys is all I am suggesting.

Yeah, I do the same quite often whenever I need a part for myself, but I like to help others in the group out when I can.  So when I have the time I make some calls to my suppliers, and offer things like this to the group.

I know you're just messin' with me, but in all honesty...  I don't have the time to count out qty's of 10 and 20 pieces.  If anyone wants to buy less than 100pcs, Sayal offers 10pcs / $1.  It just makes it easier for me to sell in these qty's.

D.

Fuses would be great as well!
