Mala hardware vs. LED Wiz
(1/3) > >>
rooter:
I was considering buying the hardware offered by the Mala team (http://mala.arcadezentrum.com/hardware_order.html) to light the buttons in my cabinet.  Having them build it and ship it would cost twice as much as ordering the LED Wiz (http://groovygamegear.com/webstore/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=82&products_id=239).
Both are 32 port USB lighting options and use the same plugin for Mala.  Is there any reason that I am missing that would make me want to order the more expensive option?
BobA:
I think the Mala hardware includes LEDs and Resistors.
rooter:
I see.

Maybe I should have mentioned that the Mala hardware is $110 w/shipping and the Led Wiz is $50 w/shipping.

Thanks for the help!

Groovy Game Gear has the RGB LEDs allowing you to change the lighting color scheme if you so choose.  Or you can get the standard color LEDs from their site and the resistor is included.  You can also get the translucent buttons to make this work as well.  One thing to keep in mind though that the full set is $6.49 for each button.  Also depending on the number of buttons and how you want to light them it could take 2-3 LEDWiz boards.  It all boils down to how you want to bling up your cab.

Our PAC-Drive boards work the same way as Mala Hardware except that they handle 16 LEDs instead of 32 per board (the maximum number without using an additonal power source). The PAC-Drive is compatible with Mala without the need for a plug-in.
