Has anyone seen different colored Coin slots?

The lightup part/reject button.....
I know they make them in amber now which I've really never ever seen on a real arcade game, but every arcade game I remember is red.....
I'm thinking about using blue ones on my cab, bad idea?

That's the nice thing about building your own, you have complete control over the whole design process and you can pick out the colors and design you want. The original arcades were all manufactured in a cookie cutter fashion with little thought on the overall design. Why change if it isn't broke. Point is don't be afraid to try new things a find something you like and makes it unique to you.

I'm not much help here - someone was using LED's to light the coin doors, and I thought had a blue one.

Someone else I think had a photoshop file of the label that went on them that you could change to blue and maybe print of transparency film.

FWIW.

This is sort of offtopic but I got led to this question since I was looking at light wiring topics

how many fans would I need for a modern 2ghz computer?
Just one? Should I add more than one (they're cheap) and if so do I just use Y-adaptors like I would with coin mech lights? If so, where the heck do I put extra fans?

[Matt Berry]

Depends on how cool you want everything to run. Personally I use a lot of fans and prefer extra space between componets to increase air flow. Heat kills, my harddrives are spaced out and have a 120 mm fan blowing across them. From there I have 2 - 80 mm in the back, 1-80 in the side, 1 - 80 in the top, and then the fan in the power supply. I also have a zalman copper heatsink w/ 92 mm fan on the CPU. The processor stays nice n cool   As for noise it is really quite, none of the fans produce more then 25 dba. Y-adapters or the fan monitoring plugs on the Motherboard will work fine.

Happ sells them in different colors.  Click here.  The doors all come with yellow, but the buttons can be replaced.  I bought blue ones.  Much nicer.

[subzero23]

Ya I definately think I might go with blue but I'm not sure, I'll wait a while and see how natural red looks
did you get replacement LEDs? if so what kind/color

[rdagger]

It would be cool if someone made clear ones.  Then you could change the coin slot colors with LED's.

You may want to re-read the topic first.  That required a whole new topic.

Depending on the strength of the LED, IIRC, someone had yellow rejects and the blue LED STILL made them blue.  I'd have to guess that yellow is as close to clear as you'll find.

Hulkster used blue ones on his showcase, see below. Seeing these convinced me to do the same. I guess it comes down to what color scheme you'll be using for the artwork and trim.

I use 4 colors on my coin door to represent which player they belong to, it looks cool all lit up

[paigeoliver]

I'm not sure I would pay actual money for different colored coin slots, but I must admit that they do look nice.

I would if buying a new coin door, why Happ doesn't supply them with red coin return buttons I don't understand.
