Title: Bally em Wattage? Post by: SK8US on April 04, 2010, 07:32:47 PM Hi there, I was wondering what the max wattage is on a Bally em? I have a export that has a deferant type of transformer to switch to 110 so I thought I would buy a up converter from 110 to 220 as the Sweden's use but need to know if a 300 watt would work. Thanks for your input.
Title: Re: Bally em Wattage? Post by: FOXSSLOTS1 on April 04, 2010, 08:40:18 PM why would you want to make it 220? the transformer in the ballys are 110 or 220 depending on the wire jumpers - the earlier transformers you had to jump 2 terminals - the later bally just move the molex plug. the machines run on 110 the input is what is different 220 in for europe - steps down to 110.
Title: Re: Bally em Wattage? Post by: SK8US on April 04, 2010, 10:19:44 PM Thats what I thought at first but looking at the transformer it is not like the regular transformers and the input is not right from the plug so without tracing one input I thought it may jus be as easy to upconvert?
I'll post a picture in a moment to show you and maybe you'll be able to help? Thanks, Scott Title: Re: Bally em Wattage? Post by: SK8US on April 04, 2010, 10:38:42 PM The white is in the C the black is in the 110 and the white yellow is in the 220 and the others are in the 0, 6.9, 58.5 . And under is not adjustable other than whats screwed into the white front plug. Thats why I might use a upconverter?
If you need more info please ask. Thanks Scott Title: Re: Bally em Wattage? Post by: FOXSSLOTS1 on April 04, 2010, 11:58:36 PM that sure is new to me. have no idea. sorry.

:211- I have a sneaking suspicion that this is a Games of Nevada Machine. Not a Bally. Maybe you thought it was a Bally because of the wrapping on the coils? Games of Nevada used Bally parts...

Thanks, Scott The wording on the front is in swed other than Bally Golden Wheels and on the belly glass Bally Las Vegas all other is foreign Title: Re: Bally em Wattage? Post by: Neonkiss on April 05, 2010, 11:35:26 AM WoW,
Nice machine. Very unique. I was suspecting it to be another manufacturer because of the pin connector on the side. Looks like your going to have to get out that DVM and check the voltages. Title: Re: Bally em Wattage? Post by: Op-Bell on April 10, 2010, 04:48:42 AM I take it the 220V power comes in on the white-yellow. To change over to 110V, just move that wire to the same terminal as the black. At least you have a screw terminal block! I did a couple of imports where I had to get in and solder the transformer taps.
Title: Re: Bally em Wattage? Post by: SK8US on April 15, 2010, 06:39:06 PM I was a little hesitant to change wires around so I bought a 300 W. up converter and it works great. 1 Krona is about the same size as a quarter so the hopper works fine but I did change the coin acceptor to a US quarter, again works great with no schematics needed.
Thanks for all your input. I did use a 300 watt up converter with no problems so these must be under 300 watts. |
