Title: backlit controller for LED reels Post by: DannyG804 on September 07, 2013, 03:14:21 PM If I convert my 4 reel game with LED reels to a 3 reel with LED reels, do I need a different backlit controller? Obviously, the harness and the shelf will be different - is that all???

Title: Re: backlit controller for LED reels Post by: cowboygames on September 07, 2013, 10:34:43 PM I've had LED reels for 3reel slant top before and they were a whole different animal than what you commonly see in S2000 uprights. Are LED reels available for the upright? And what is required equipmentwise for a changeover. If I recall, and it's tuff because I sold the setup to a guy in Texas like a year ago, all the harness's reel shelf, reels and backlight controller where completely different from incandescent stuff.

After i posted, and thought a out it a little more,I thought I was just out of the loop (hey, wouldn't be the first time, surely won't be the last), but I may have to retract my statement Danny. I'm in unchartered territories right now, so I can't really advise. I would not think IGT would go through the trouble to make 2 different BL control boards, but hey....stranger things have happened. Do you have the reels already?? Title: Re: backlit controller for LED reels Post by: DannyG804 on September 08, 2013, 11:19:42 AM Thanks for the information provided here. I've swapped out a 3 reel backlit machine with a 4 reel LED setup - back and forth multiple times. That includes the shelf, all harness and controller. I figured it would be cool to have an LED conversion kit for my 3 reel games. I did some searches and read a few threads on this topic. I noticed that members here have these LED reels. I can post a WTB or WTT ad in the classifieds to see what I can find.
I've been to some casinos with tons of s2000's that are all 3 reel LED backlit. Soaring Eagle in Mt. Pleasant and the Gun Lake Casino in Grand Rapids. Even up in Petoskey at the Odawa casino. Oh, I don't have the reel baskets for the 3 reel LED's Roz. Off to the classifieds I go... |
