What ever happened to those coin door stickers you were thinking of offering? Those stickers with these on top of them :)
I'd ask about something else but I don't want to hijack this thread. :angel:
Can you do an Aussie version with 20 cents? ;D We don't have quarters!
Available from the store in a day or two:
I'd like to take full credit for the idea, but this one was inspired by a post made by Crowquill a few months ago. However, the implementation, light source modification, artwork, etc. is all the work of GGG.
I'm assuming these mount in a standard microswitch pushbutton hole? How wide/tall are the bezels? I'm wondering if these can replace some existing credit buttons, but there are other buttons mounted nearby.

Ok, some dimensions:
First, it doesn't fit a standard pushbutton hole. The threaded portion of the body is 1" long and .925" diameter, or made for a 15/16" hole. I think 1" would work as well, but might be a little sloppy.
Damn that's a major bummer. I already have some coin buttons (1 1/8") on the front of my CP. It would be nice to put these in their place. Anyone know of any adapters that would help?
They also have orientation pegs to keep them from spinning, so I guess they could be used with existing holes just by putting the smaller peg holes above and below the existing pushbutton hole and then tightening the nut down. I don't think it will go anywhere, and it should cover everything fine.
Read this part again :) I think it will work fine, even in a 1 1/8" existing hole, as long as the orientation pin holes are drilled on center with the existing hole.And not even that precisely on-center, as long as the bezel part of the CDR covered the existing hole.

Can you put anything you want in the button, like a "insert token" graphic?
yeah, I appreciate the authenticity of the "push to reject," but I'd rather have something more suited to the use. How hard would it be for us to mod these to say, "Push to add credit" or something?
It looks awesome, but I need a pic with the lights on. It's too dark in that photo to really get a full impression of how it looks.
Even better would be a pic of one installed or a pic of what you're describing in order to get one to cover an existing "standard" button hole.

Absolutely. I can have a few stock designs print and cut and just apply them as needed. I'd like to keep it limited to a few different designs though. How about coming up with a total of 4 (including the "old school" original) and I'll make them standard options? I like the "push to credit". Is 2 more enough?You're going to have a hard time pleasing everyone with just 4 designs. I think you will want some with 20c for Aussies, and some with pence, and maybe some with Yen.

Sounds like 3/16" of electrical tape wound around the button threads would snug it up in a standard pushbutton hole pretty well, then. As long as the bezel completely covers the hole, all's good.
So it's a standard poker button with custom graphics and an LED bulb? Neat!
Here is what I already have on my bartop, makes more sense than "push to reject," although I don't think a single person has ever read it. They just stare at the game screen and start mashing buttons everywhere, apparently in the hopes that one will start the game.
"Push to Insert" makes the most sense to me so far, as it relates directly to the "25˘" or "Token". Is this agreeable?I like "Push for Credit" better, personally, but I'm not in the market for these, so I don't think my vote should count. ;)

Cool. This is one of those "doh" ideas that should have been obvious! Especially after that one member made his round "25c" illuminated credit buttons. This is the sign of true genius. The ability to think just ONE level above the rest of us. ;D
Isn't it just a standard rectangle button with a insert? Not trying to be a buzzkill or anything. I went for the Ultracade red button on the top center of the panel that says start/stop. gets the point across.
Oh, and don't forget the pre-attached, 2x 48" of 20awg wire with resistor (and RGB LEDs) ;D

....are these for sale yet?
RandyT or anyone else:
Do you know if these replacement coin buttons will work with the type of coin door that "Rip" posted above (3rd post from the top, 2nd pic)?
I have a similar coin door.
If there was a combo product that is an "UNREAL coin door" plus a NovaGemCDR so that you can remove your coin door and replace it with another door with two builtin buttons, that would be freakin' awesome! :) For extra credit, it would have some way to insert coins for player 3 and 4 as well (or maybe just have 4 buttons.)
