    Default Ever heard of Giga Liberty Machine?

    Hey all, going thru the machines, I ran accross a Giga machine, don't have a clue who makes it, only found Liberty on the frame, and Giga on the cell. It may be as common as the flu, but I just never seen one like this. The entire wiring is all flexible printed circuit, there are hardly any wires on the thing at all. With that said, I fired it up, It comes on, ball shooter works, but it locks up tighter than mouse in a cheese factory when you put the ball in the "GO" pocket, the one that sets off the reels. It will do nothing at all until you unplug and reset it. I'll get a picture of the back so you can see what I mean.

    Here are some more pics. A few interesting things I found. First, the whole cell is plastic, and is removed from the front of the machine, not the back. Also the ball launcher is a solenoid, and it also uses a solenoid to advance the ball into the shooter, so two things fire when It shoots a ball. It also has marching ants red LEDs on the frame, havn't seen that either.

    Another obervation, the cell is electrically connected to the frame by a set of brushes and hinges, no snap connectors?

    Now you get a good idea what the back is supposed to look like.
