    Default Popeye Pachislo volume controls- need suggestions thanks!

    Hello all, newbie here. I just purchased a popeye pachislo and I need help on what to do with the volume as it is way too loud. I found the 3 setting volume control and it is too loud on all settings. What do I need to buy for the aftermarket volume control? Soldering is not a problem for me. What is the most recommended and best to buy and from where? Are certain ones better than others? Thanks, I see stuff on ebay but no idea on what to buy and how many i need for popeye. Thanks!

    Welcome to PachiTalk!

    These are the ones I use. They require no soldering, very easy to install. You will need one per speaker.

    Mopars work just as well and are a better bargain. Either way you should be fine.

    I use these pots on all my machines and they seem to work really well. Pachislo Volume Control.jpg

    They are a 500 Ohm, linear taper. The arrows show which contacts to soldier to.

    Here's the link to them. 500 Ohm Potentiometer 023-500
    What if...​the ​HOKEY POKEY, is what it's all about?

    Thanks everyone for your help! I was going to try the 500 ohm Potentiometer linear taper for a few dollars but when I went to checkout they wanted over $30 to ship to Canada. I will give Moparperformances suggestion a try! Thanks again

    Are there mounting brackets for these, the kind you mount / screw into wood? How did you mount them?
