Wow... tough one in 10 minutes, but yeah... I can do it. Older pins are better for that since there are more separate boards.


I guess I meant that you could just focus in a certain aspect.  Like the purpose and theory of a bridge rectifier.  Theory and purpose of a varistor or what diode's are really doing on switches?  Or how a lamp/switch matrix works.  Endless supply of topics.

Oh! I got a good one I've been wanting to know how to figure this out forever.

How to add LED's into a game, I'm not talking the prefab ones that already exists but if you wanted to add an extra LED mod into a game how do you know what resistor to use and stuff like that.  

I've been wanting to add an LED to my LOTR tied into the Balrog forever but I don't even know where to start.  


Well, all depends on what you want it to do...

If you want it always on, just take current from your GI.

If you want it activated when another feature is, that is much more tricky. If you have another lamp that is activated, you can use that circuit. If not, and you want it activated when something mechanical is, then you have to put in a relay with a switch... basically create an extension of the lamp driver.

Aren't there kits for the Balrog?

I've been wanting to add a White LED to Gandalf the Whites Staff that will activate when the Balrog is on.  So I would tie it in the the existing light circuit for the Balrog.  I just don't know what resistor I would need, if I would need a resitor at all or any of the electrical stuff about it.

DMM & Pinball = The perfect Match (Or DMM 101)

You could also but a Sticky on the “How To” forum for each episode for clarification and discussion.

Looking forward to this.

Cheers.


Yes, I could put them as stickys... but I don't want to favor my tips and tricks over anyone elses...

What about a show on how to rebuild flippers including changing the flipper bats?

flipper rebuilt:  Get  top tape #4 ...  you'll get that and a WHOLE lot more. Highly recommended.


Sparky should do something that Clay hasn't done yet ...
