We're fighting polar opposites I see. Lots of snow here today. I had to push through the cold last night to work in my shop. After about half an hour, I either stopped noticing it, or the tools warmed up enough from use that it wasn't so bad.
So, how much 'hotter' are these hot coils? Are the stock flipper coils not powerful enough? I've heard the term used before, but wasn't sure if it was a huge difference, or just a slight bump.
I imagine a slight bump would be a pretty large perceived difference, though, considering the flipper would be rebuilt at the same time?
I actually thought of you as I was creating my post - must be like walking into a Freezer for you guys - It was like walking into an oven for me over the past week.
"Hot" coils - Owner has requested these and they do make a difference. Some choose to "high tap" EMs, but that affects all coils, whereas replacing the flipper coils with "hot" coils only affects the flippers. In this case - just the bottom flipper coils will be replaced. I would not replace the upper flipper coils in this machine.
"Stock" flipper coils would suffice, and I use them in my machines as I like my machines playing "original". The "Hot" coils are a compromise instead of "High Tapping" the transformer (in my opinion).
