Xenon pinball game UPDATE Pics Added
TheOtherBob:
I looked at a Xenon once that was for sale that the seller listed as a small amount of battery corrosion.
ChadTower:
You know, this pic from IPDB would seem to bear out what you're saying... especially with the lock on the side of the backbox like that.
alphamonster:
Xenon has a key that unlocks the head, and the whole thing swings open on a hinge. The playfield artwork is by far the highest determinate of price on pinballs. Everything else can fairly easily be fixed, but a new playfield is gonna cost some bucks. You will want to do something with the batteries otherwise the game will go into diagnostic mode/ stats mode everytime you turn the game on. I went the capacitor route, though there are a couple other routes to go with such as putting the batteries off the board, or using a nicad equivilant.

A lot of people, excellent pin people, just follow the "buy high quality batteries and replace them every 12 months" method.

That really only applies to more modern pins that actually use standard AA batteries.
