Atari cone button wiring
<< < (3/4) > >>
Wade:
Are you sure those are Atari cones?  They look flatter than those on my Missile Command, and it has the shorter of the 2 varieties that I was aware of.  Did they have more than two heights?

ChadTower:
Or, did anyone other than Atari make LED cones?

Based on cone height, I'd guess these are the Midway version.
Stormy151:
Also, if the lights inside are really true LEDs, and not incandescent- you can't wire them up backwards, because they won't work.

Well, I suppose you COULD.  But why would you want to?

So get your 2v, then touch the wires to the contacts.  If they're backwards, the light won't light.

UNLESS, theyre regular light bulbs.  They don't care about + or -, they'll light either way.

Why diodes instead of a resistor?
