Since I've made the decision to go with a UAII (and Scott at Mameroom has been very helpful), I wanted to ask some questions around Coin Doors. For starters, the UAII kit has an opening that is : 12-11/16" x 10-3/16" and fits Happ Controls coin doors. I wasn't really too concerned about this part of it all, but the more I think about it, the more I like the notion to utilize a coin door and tokens to add to the whole "feel" for it all. But, again, I'm not a wiring genius and am not even close to having a grasp around what is involved with all of this. That said, Mameroom links to here, but I have no real loyalty to Happ (beyond giving ponyboy my business!) and was curious of some options that may work. Does anyone have any insight here? Thanks! |

uh, for wiring from a computer based cabinet, you really only need to hook up two microswitches to the same place you'd hook up your coin buttons, and if you want to hook up the lights, you just steal the voltage from a molex connector in your computer. there is no wiring you can't handle in this situation, mostly if your going to build an arcade cabinet. as for a coin door, you can get one off ebay, but they don't cost much less than new and they ususally aren't perfect. just give ponyboy a ring. also, why are you making an arcade cabinet if your worried about the money? mine has cost me over 1500 and it doesn't even work yet, although over winter break, i hope things will change. |

The UAII kit uses a specific style happ player coin door. |
