Title: Reel size differences in width? Post by: Magicslots on April 25, 2011, 11:47:54 AM I have been digging around and am still confused... :52- That's somewhat normal for me :103-
If I understand it correctly S+ reel strips are a bit wider than S2K backlit strips??? And are there 2 different sizes of reel strips for the 4 and 5 reel S2K games? Whats the real simple scoop here folks?? :127- Title: Re: Reel size differences in width? Post by: slot monkey on April 25, 2011, 02:04:13 PM I believe you are correct about the width between s+ and s2000.
I don't know about the 4 & 5 reel s2000, never owned anything more than 3 reels..... yet Title: Re: Reel size differences in width? Post by: jay on April 25, 2011, 04:19:46 PM The S+ reel strips + glass kits work just fine on the S2000.
There might be a slight difference in size but I don't think it is signficant that you would need to change reel baskets. I know the 5 wheel conversion kits change out the reel shelf but not owning one I can't comment if the reel size is different. I know some of the "bonus" games have a 4th wheel that is a different size. In this case I believe the orginal 3 reels remain the same. Title: Re: Reel size differences in width?

Title: Re: Reel size differences in width? Post by: Magicslots on April 26, 2011, 12:07:01 AM Thanks for the info, the strips on my TD Red Hot Strike, are 2 inches wide, so I guess I am in the market for
a set of the narrow 5 reel LED reels. :103- :89- Unless the baskets are interchangeable on these???? Title: Re: Reel size differences in width? Post by: cowboygames on April 26, 2011, 12:22:50 AM I've never seen the 2" reels with LED backlighting except for the ones I made. I had a post on here awhile back about converting 2 1/4" reels to 2". It's actually pretty easyand mounting the LEDs to the 2" reel brackets.

The 2" reels I've seen are incandescent and the 2 1/4" are LED. I can't tell if they are interchangeable, as the LED ones have security tape that I don't want to break. Here are pics of each.

Post by: cowboygames on April 26, 2011, 11:06:51 AM They're interchangeable, it just requires a small amount of maipulation and a decision on whether you want to move just the LED lighting or the baskets too.
