Coin Door thoughts - to wire up or not?

<< < (2/8) > >>

mgb:
I'm wiring mine but also putting microswitches behind the reject buttons, which I'll probably use more.

gabe:
Mine is wired. Here's why:

[*]It's a cool party trick - it impresses my friends
[*]I'm a nerd who gets his jollies from recreating the arcade experience as accurately as possible
[*]When playing for score, I truly believe that using a quarter is lucky
[*]Why not? No one forces me to use it, but it's nice to have the option. I can always use a shift key, or set the game to 'free-play'[/list]

upprc04:
For the people who said they have their coin doors setup to accept any coin, what modifications did you make for this?  I saw there use to be some "Any Coin" mechs for sale, but it sounds like there is no more available.  I have some quarter coin mechs and would like to modify them to accept anything. 

Any tutorials on how to do this or examples?

I used this for some hints, but had to figure most of it out on my own by watching a token going through the mech. The modifications I made are irreversable.
