LightspeedJack:
I have been having a devil of a time trying to find a power transformer that matches the spec's required for the LED stands.

I looked at Staples, Radioshack, Walmart, Target, BestBuy, basically everywhere.

People that were able to acquire AC -> DC 5V 600mA power transformers, where did you get them from?

Is there a good website online that has the right size?

Also I am nervous about ordering one online because I'm not sure how to make sure the adapter plug is the right size to fit into the LED stand plug.

Thanks in advance!

I usualy buy it in normal Hypermarkets. It is strange if you can not find any in a electronic store.

I bought one in a Chinese local store just for 2 €uros (Around 2 dollars). I use it to feed my Blaze Stand. It powers from 1,5volt to 12 volts :)

Good luck!!

Have there been any reports about the new drivers from EMS? (3.2) I am waiting for my guns to arrive and am hoping to make the installation as painless as possible.

Here everyone seems to be saying to use smog's drivers but on silverfox's info it says that the 3.2 drivers work well and to try them first. I'm a little concerned that not many people have tried them though.

Should I just go for Smog's to start with? I'm using mame32 .108 on XP. I realise that this is a little preemptive but I don't like to install and uninstall a zillion drivers if I can avoid it.

Is there an issue with having two guns pivoted at a 45 degree angle, I have the bars set at the same angle of the monitor but the calibration gets thrown off.

What is the maximum angle I can have the monitor (TFT) in the cab. I tried it at a steeper angle and needed a step ladder to calibrate ;D

Is there any issues with the bars located top and botton instead of side to side?

Thanks in advance

I have found transformers that do a range that includes 5V (for example, 3V-12V transformers), but all the ones that I found had selectors for the voltage that did not include 5V (i.e. you could switch from 3V to 4.5V to 6V, but there was no way to choose 5V).

Would it damage a Blaze Stand to run it as 4.5V or 6V?

I guess 5V is not a typical American device need? I live in Pittsburgh, PA.
