Title: Space Invaders Lighting
Post by: PileDriver on June 21, 2005, 03:11:45 pm
I have a Tatito space invaders cab that the florescent marquee light shorted. The outlets in the cab measure 100v with my meter. What will happen if I put 120v florescent lights in there?
Should I just rewire them?
Anybody know?

If you replace with 120V lights, they will work fine. I am an electrician so have no worries. :)

Thanks,
That was great timeing.
I had the back off and was just deceiding to rewire.
They seem to be a bit slow to come on but they work.
Now off to finish the install. ;D ;D
