fuses

[Pop Bumper Pete]

todays dumb question

a couple of weeks ago I picked this up at an auction in a former garage
a display case for fuses 
given if they are the right value, can I use car fuses in a pinball machine?


I did buy it more for the case than the fuses, but it would be a bonus if I could use them

[Retropin]

Yes, so long as the voltage rating isn't under the 250V

what I should have bought was the bulb holder next to it

Think of the money you'd be saving.. would pay for itself in no time

Nice pick up you can't go wrong with that for 10 bucks. I don't know about your parts storage generally but I oftern end up buying things I already have because I haven't put things in very handy places. That display case is ideal.

you too. Don't you love it when you find you already have 10 of something and you probably haven't replaced one of them ever anyway

Guys, can I please use this to ask a (perhaps) stupid noob question. What rating fuses should I have in my games (so far Shadow & Demo Man). I was reading a post (or maybe a restorer advert) where he said he rarely sees games with the correct value fuses for Oz. Cheers, Andy.

I can never find them initially but I always seem to end up finding them after I buy more and then store them in the same place as the last ones I brought.

The correct fuse values are listed in each game's manual.

If you don't have a copy, you can download it from the pinball database.


Pete, I think you scored a bargain with the fuse case.  Well done.

All listed in your manuals.
 Demo man page 1-41
Shadow 1-52

nice case -would look good tidied up with Hella decals or cardboard banner. some Styrofoam could be used to create some bulb holders - could split the case into multi- use.
as for buying what you already got, everything I own , if it has fuses there are spares taped to inside or back of fuse box/holder. I do this to everything I buy, saves searching when you need it the most.

Cool - that makes that easy- even gave me page numbers    I always have this vision of the Shadow going up in a puff of smoke because it has giant fuses 
Nice case - how good does picking something like that up cheap at a sale
