    Smile Model B Extra Jackpot Switch

    This machine was an ideal candidate for an extra switch as it uses two jackpot bulbs behind different colors of plastic.

    This is very similar to the leaf switch occasionally used by NISHIJIN.

    There was room on the stock jackpot lever for two wires.

    And here is a link to a video of how it looks in action.

    Used one of the stock mounting posts with a 1/4" spacer and a #4 - 1-1/4" screw and drilled a hole for the other fastener, a nylon machine screw with 3/4" of spacers and a few nylon nuts.

    Used incandescent bulbs with a 9V battery holder and ON / OFF switch.

    This extra switch push rod would be useful for a counter. One could pass it in front of a sensor or use a micro switch. There is room for two micro switches piggybacked...

    I was trying to accomplish two different goals... first was to see if I could add the push rod to a standard jackpot lever, mostly for use by a counter. Second goal was just to do exactly what you liked... the slight stagger.

    You probably already know this; the original lights were two jackpot lights on the side tied to the standard jackpot switch. A little bit uncommon on this machine is the lower "low reward tray" light. With all four bulbs on at the same time, the bulbs are pretty dim on a 9V battery. I know I could use a wall pack; somehow prefer a battery for this one.

    A nifty idea and a future project for sure.

    Ideal for lighting on this style of machine and very useful for a counter on any Nishijin Model "B", possibly others as well for either lighting or counters.
