Happ's Ultimech Coin Mech Adjustable?
« on: June 01, 2004, 05:23:17 pm »
I have three coin doors with Happ Ultimech $0.25 mechanisms that I would like to convert to be able to accept the new BYOAC tokens.  The Happ website indicates that these mechanisms cannot "easily" be adjusted to accept other coins.  I never like easily anyway...if it was easy anyone could do it.  So, anyone have any ideas on how to adjust these mechs to accept a .984 token?

Thanks!

Happ sells the parts to convert yours to take tokens. Contact a Happ live person and explain what you want to do.

The plastic Ultimechs are dirt simple to convert.  I did mine in less than 5 minutes. See http://www.miavio.com/HappILMech.htm .
