Thanks for the heads up Al, I wasn't aware of a compatibility issue with LEDs. I have used a few on other games, I have primarily late model Bally Williams (TAF/TZ are the oldest).

Does that hold for flashers as well? The access to a few of the bulbs is going to be very tough. The GIs near the aliens and the tube flasher come to mind. I was thinking when the time comes I would consider replacing with LEDs so that hopefully it would only have to be done once.

As for the center mode light, I have checked a couple of things and tried hard to move it so that it doesn't touch the metal plate. Some last longer than others, but I can't find any rhyme or reason. I've probably put in about 10 bulbs there and maybe 1 or 2 elsewhere on the entire game. At least it's easy access.

Geez, that was cheap, although a limited market I guess.

Still checking in.

My BBB is collecting dust, just don't play it often. Good thing, if spare parts are tough to get.

I check this forum about once every week or two. I have less than 50 games on my BBB. A major home renovation has stopped all pinball activities for now. I did manage to install all of the pinbits mods. I have also been asking and emailing for the spare parts to no avail.

Yes, I too check in regularly... once or twice a month. No idea how many games we've played. My BBB needs a bit of work as the last time played it would not serve balls to the shooter lane Sad

Too busy to give it the attention it needs but hope to when summer rolls around.

Did receive one of IPBs MM playfields... I think they did a great job with it. Very pleased.

I check this forum every week or two. Not sure how many games I've played, but it really only gets used 2 or 3 times a year at parties. I've been burning out lights on Ray's Ball Buster inserts.

I'm pretty much like everyone else, still have my game and check the forum once every week or two.

I don't check the forum as much as I used to... that's for SURE!

Back before the games were delivered and the forum was at its peak, I would log in MANY times every day. On my desk at work, I have one of those calendar pads that you write on. Everytime I would log out, I would make a note about the number of posts, that way when I went back to the site, I could tell by the post counter if there was anything new. Embarassed

My BBB has about 400 plays on it, everything is holding up great, no issues to speak of at all.

Still a lot of great info and people here.

I check in every now and then to see what's going on. I'm still trying to pry the BBB parts I ordered from Kim last august Sad

Just can't figure out what the deal is. I need the ramp arrows.
