i am planning on using the 12 volts to fire up the trackball light,
marquee backlight, cabinet cooling fan, and small car amplifier for
the speakers.
i've got several surplus atx power supplies
that i can use.

I had planed of using my 12 v suply for my marquee backlight but after trying several ideas i found no substitute for a 240v (uk) fluresent strip light (24") for a smooth effect. i still use tre 12 v for my under cab neon light, my coin door lights and my track ball and have hooked them up to a single switch above my cab, so when the kids play the wont use them ;D But i still havent decided if i should hook my marquee light to a dedicated switch or not
