Most pins I have (still have yet to restore any but am about to get in over my head in one) need a strip, use some Novus, and put back together with a new rubber set and flipper rebuild kit sometimes, and they are good to go. It's only a prediction but most of my pins aren't beaten to death to really need that much money put into them.

That's the 'op special' way to do a complete resto ;). What you described in reality is a maintence shop job. Restore and shop are different terms.

I am not sure, but is this getting a little off track of the original thread? Perhaps it is just me?
What we have for the $360 is a complete open frame industrial LCD that takes the orinal CGA signal that RFm started with. It also includes a metal mounting plate.
The LCD will do other resolutions such as 24 Khz VGA and higher.
We do not do restores on Pins as such, we really developed the kit to respond to requests from collectors. We hope it benefits the community.

It's not you, Rick, that's how it goes around here. :) Conversations tend to wander.
What's the difference between an industrial LCD and a consumer PC monitor?
ChadTower:
That's why I asked about the difference between an industrial LCD, which he did specify, and a consumer LCD. Maybe the consumer LCD just doesn't have the same amount of lifespan.
Rickn:
I am not suggesting you can get VGA from the RFM 2k, It is standard res/CGA. The LCD will accept that and later if you go with Nucore, you are still good as it will also do VGA.
A few differences that you need to be aware of;
- Our A/d is programmed to accept all these resolutions, retail is not.
- ours is open frame, no need to de-case,
- ours has technical support I stock spare A/D boards as well as power supplies and inverters.
- Ours have higher operating ranges as far as temperature goes.
- Our kit is formed metal not wood.
- as far vas the adapter route goes, everytime you convert a signal ther is degradation.
In any case what evre route you go good luck.
