LED Strips for Apron - Flipper Area


Recommended Posts

Simple inexpensive Mod from Comet Pinball.....

 

They sell LED's and whilst looking around their Web Store I discovered "Matrix SMD Strip kits", which makes adding LED light strips to pinballs really simple.

The kits are all plug and play and come with multiple way's to connect to currently installed lighting. This includes, Wedge, Bayonet and Alligator Clip connection option's (as pictured)

 

The kit's I used in Getaway (Red) and NBA Fastbreak (Orange) were $4:50 each Australian, and postage (for a change from the USA) wasn't crazy $16 Australian.

I bought 4 kits plus some extension wires and a few LED bulb's that most other local suppliers don't stock.

 

Anyway here is the result on the apron's lighting up the flipper area..

Going to give these a shot as I've had flickering issues with other strips. They have some cool stuff on the comet site.

 

I'm happy so far and for the price it's a no fuss, no brainer for me. I'm sure there are cheaper ways to do this but this was really simple plug and play...

I’ve used these on several of my machines without flicker. You can see them flicker in video though. They’re really good for lighting up hidden areas like both under and inside of the Indy ramp.

I also use their matrix system to connect Michaels slingspots in-line with the sling gi bulbs. Removed those damn spot lights which makes it much nicer.

I use Babak’s led strips and hook ‘em up to the GI or Coindoor , depending on pin. E.g Dracula = coindoor to utilise the light show when drac talks/laughs.

Works out at approx 90 cents each [emoji106]

Yep, I do the same. Babak's LED strips are awesome and easy to do. Great mod to do.
