Re: Powering up from power strip
Same here, if I want to leave one on to play more that day I will power the other machines off with the built in switches but remember as long as the transformer is getting power it will still be sucking on the line. The machine can't tell if it was the switch or the mains so all is good using the power strip

Re: Powering up from power strip
Everything that I have ( 8 pinball, 25 Pachislo, 14 Pachinko, 3 arcade games and 2 cranes ) are all on power strips that I turn on and off while leaving all machine switches in the on position. 8 years, no issues and I feel comfortable leaving the house knowing that everything is off and protected.

Re: Powering up from power strip
I went the extra and put a switch on top of the power strip so I could just turn on one machine at a time or all together. You can see the switch in my posts under Power strips.

Re: Powering up from power strip
This is the type of powerstrip I personally use on my machines, each plug has it's own on/off swith, so I just turn on the machines I want
to play at that time.Powerstrip.jpg

Well I guess you learn something every day. Had not seen one like that before. Damn nice.

I hadn't ever seen a strip with individual switches either. Never too old to learn something new.Originally Posted by Lt Teddy
