    So My concern in finding this 30+ volts off the transformers is not really a problem to be worried about on pachislots. Is this true also on Pachinkos ?

    I no longer have a modern pachinko to test, so I can't be 100% sure. However, I'm guessing that if they put regulated power supplies in the pachislots, then they do it in pachinkos too. But that's just a guess.

    If someone with some electronics knowlege has a pachinko, it's pretty easy to find out, though, so maybe one of them will have a good answer.

    And, by the way, you're not wrong Arby. The unit is designed to run on a certain input voltage. You ARE causing wear. But only on a very specific part of the electronics, not the whole machine's electronics. It's just those regulators that would heat up and eventually fail because of the overheating. But that would take a LONG time unless they use really crappy regulators. Everything on the other side of the regulators (i.e., the guts of the machine electronics) should be just fine.
