ViriiGuy Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 You guys as a whole, have made so many amazing improvements since I built my cabinet 2 years ago.So I have been considering either selling it and starting over, or updating it. As it stands, I have 8 contactors, 5 RGB LEDs, a strobe, Replay Knocker, gear motor, a shaker motor and Undercab RGB LED Strips. Using Zeb's V2 boards I think.. and a single maxed out LEDWiz. I would like to do away with my current back panel with 5 RGBS and Strobes, And go with the new LED Strips like the WS2812's along the sides and back of the PF. I also want to use them for the Undercab lighting. On top of that I want to move to 10 Contactors. So add 2 more to the setup. For power I have a PC Supply that goes into Zeb's boards and a 24V supply for the contactors. Any thoughts on what my best approach and needed materials will be?

randr Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 Beacons and a blower/fan. I cannot tell you how much i love the beacons! I thought I would hate them but they are great! The blower is very cool aswell and really adds to many games! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ViriiGuy Posted December 12, 2014 Author Share Posted December 12, 2014 I am thinking about adding a fan in my speaker grill. But no beacons for me My cabinet's topper is the Matrix of Leadership... I plan to replace the RGB leds in it with some I can control. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mameman Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 Can't recall what pin but one of those p2k builds I did put a big fan in the center for whirlwind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ViriiGuy Posted December 12, 2014 Author Share Posted December 12, 2014 Yea, my cab has some catching up to do. Everyone has such cool builds now!! I am still looking for a better contactor option too. I have tried quite a few out and none give that sound I am looking for. For the slings and pop bumpers. The standard contactors are fine for. But they don't give close to the right sound for flippers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nebrunner Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 Can someone link me to a beacon or a video of one? I don't know if I know what that is or have ever seen one. What is a good source for the cool led strips on either side of the playfield in the dof demo video? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is a good source for the cool led strips on either side of the playfield in the dof demo video? I got my orange beacon from princess auto for about 12 bucks. It's perfect, and all the dof configs are done really well as well. https://vimeo.com/115135273 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
