    Default I GOT BALLS BUT I NEED BULBS

    I have an old '60-'70s Pachinko Called "No More War", that I bought in a box at a yard sale. I put it all back together and it seems to be working OK (ball-jams once in a while) But it has 3 bulb sockets and I could only find 2 bulbs..they are little screw-in bulbs about the size of an old flashlight bulb. anyone know where I can find any?? :roll:

    Zargon,
    My old Nishijin has 3 bulbs also that needed replacing. I went to radio shack and got the 7.5v flashlight bulbs they had. They were a little smaller in size then the originals but the socket size is exactly the same. They work great. I can run them on a 9v battery or a 9v transformer.
    Hope that helps.
    Paul

    That's exactly what I use in my machine, Paul. Take a look at the pic in the "Woohoo! I fixed it" thread and see the pic posted with lights.

    YEP flash light bulbs were all old ones needed in the 70s and still holds true for today
    These are my opinions and no body elses and you can't have them

    Is that a battle scene in the middle of the field?

    Looks like it. A plane attacking a sinking ship! And the statement No More Wars.

    Yup... when the balls drop behind the Plane, they hit the battleship and flip it over from shooting the big guns to a ship blowing up and sets off a double payout. I have seen an earlier version (50's, I think) on ebay several months ago that had a single engine fighter plane instead of the twin engine jet that this one has. This one has year "52" on it which I think converts to sometime in the early 70's.
