Pachi room temperature

[cmk8895]

Hi all. This doesn't seem to quite fit anywhere, so I posted here...

Does anyone have any thoughts on temperature of a pachi room? I have my beloved pachislos, but have moved somewhere without a space to put them. We do, however, have a LARGE, fully enclosed gazebo. It has windows that close for the winter or screens for the summer. Ceiling fan. Weatherproof.

My question is, should my babies be out there? In the summer it can get quite warm and in the winter will be quite cold. There is no AC or heat out there. What do you all think?

I know Lazarus used to have his machines in a garage / barn, but I don't know if it was heated or not.

Let me know what you all think.

WIth no personal experience (all mine are indoors with heat/AC), I'd think you wouldn't want to operate them in temp extremes, especially the heat. Plus excessive humidity is never great for electronic and electro-mechanical babies.

How cold does it get? And would you be playing them in the dead of winter?

Just saw...Wisconsin. I'm guessing it gets pretty darn cold in the winter.

I wouldnt keep them there. I keep my apt close to 69 degrees and low Humidity.

Your gazebo sounds wonderful... but I don't think I would consider keeping machines in it.

I have them in my living room. Being in Florida the humidity here is way up there. I put a dehumidifier in to cut down the moisture. I empty that thing every day and a half. 3.5 gallons of water each time. I've got it set to 55%.

Since I have put it in I find the room more comfortable and the A/C does not run as much. It costs a little to run it but the electric bill has gone down since the A/C isn't running as much as it was. I know all of my Toys are happier.
