[alby34]

Hi

 

I’m after a LED FLICKER ELIMINATOR ADAPTOR KIT BALLY/STERN SS for my Stern Stars. Don’t want to buy an Alltek driver board or solder resistors .

 

Thanks

Peter

Trying to avoid buying anything from the US at the moment due to shipping times. Hoping someone had one in Australia. Been waiting a month for an item from tilt graphics .

Is it for Bally boards you need them? I have made my own PCB's that do the trick. Not as flash a siegecraft. But they do the job. can you solder?

It’s for Stern Stars and I can’t solder well so wouldn’t want to take that on. Do you make them for Stern as well ?

Hi @alby34 my boards suit a bally AS2518-14 or 23 Main Lamp Driver board and the Bally AS2518-52 Aux Lamp driver board. Im not sure what boards the Stern uses. So cant tell you if they would suit.

I forgot about these, need to whip myself some up also!

What are you selling them for Grunta?

The old Stern lamp drivers are the same as and interchangeable with the Bally board so should work fine.

So does that mean the you can make them @thegrunta666 , id still rather buy local than wait 6 to 8 weeks shipping from the US.

Trying to sort out what i can do for you, will let you know if I can help soon.

I have 1 last set, so if Grunt can’t get you some made, I don’t need mine currently.

But I’ll need s replacement at some stage.

Sounds good , I’m happy for Grunt to make a set if possible or I’ll buy your set,

Grant, if you ever make any more of these boards, I'd be interested in a couple please. Happy to order in kit form and assemble myself.

Ok everyone, I'm sorting out a kit for the boards. So solder them yourself. I don't have a heap of these, but do have surplus for my pins. @alby34 I shall make you a set.. So everyone please be patient, and I will get the wheels in motion.:)

Thanks so much, really appreciate it

Just an idea you may be interested in on your own Ballys I did on my BP. I soldered resistor packs to the back of the lamp driver board but this should work on your boards as well.

Every connector you plug your boards onto has atleast one spare pin not used as in no connection and isn't used on any Bally. The socket is vacant and there is no connection on the board either.

I soldered the resistor common wire to one of these vacant pins on the board and put a terminal in the plug and ran the ground wire through the lighting harness across to the backbox switched illumination common.

It gets rid of the common wire just hanging and all the wires are all on the factory connectors and run through the harness.

Maybe not for boards you sell but your own machine, maybe. The wire can be left there in the harness as it does no harm whether you use it or not.

On my machine you can't tell anything is different with the resistors soldered to the board but even the plugin boards would look neater without the common wire just hanging there.
