Hi Steve, very well done, the lighting in the middle and lower zone are perfect, and they are very important because they highlight the antagonist sides Judge Dredd and The Dark Judges. They make shine the vibrant colors of that cool comic art. And the Eagle under iluminated is a very simple and cleaver mod, I will do it with mine! Here in Argentina there was a lot of 90´s pinballs machines, because at that time a liberal goverment established parity with US dollar made pinballs very affordable for operators, imagine one pinball machine pays itself in one single summer holiday 🤯 At that time the president of Williams came to Argentina to look what was going on, because we were the country who bought most pinballs machines outside USA...🤩💪💪 You have a new suscriber now, greetings from Buenos Aires 🙂
Welcome!! Your kind words are greatly appreciated! Thank you. You’ve offered an incredible insight to the 1990’s pinball scene of Argentina. My illuminating modifications were done very inexpensively but still yielding nice results. Cheers my friend, good luck with your Judge Dredd pinball machine.
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.
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!
@@shock_me-gl9tw I believe that should work for your ground. If you have a multimeter you can test it, but I believe it should be a good and solid ground. I usually use little alligator clips to verify good power before finally soldering the connections to their final positions.
