    Default 2 Pchinkos & 1 PachiSlot + lonly ittle knowledge frome me

    Hi everyone,
    I'm from Germany and I'm trying my best to write this post in English, but please forgive me if my formulations are sometimes not quite appropriate. As mentioned in the title, I bought 2 Pachinko machines and 1 Pachi Slot machine (I'm trying to attach pictures). From my research, I've found that the Pachinko machines run on 24V AC voltage, and the Pachi Slot machine runs on 100V AC voltage. However, I just can't seem to find the power specifications of the machines (Watt / Ampere) to use with a voltage converter. That's why I was hoping that someone from this forum, with more experience regarding such machines, could help me out. I'm open and grateful for any input and wish you all a relaxed day!

    Having excess amperage is not a problem, the machines are protected. 7 amps or more should be fine for the 24 VAC transformer and 2 Amps for the 100 VAC pachislo.

    Thank you very much. I now have a 2x 22V transformer here because that is currently the best I could find on the market, but I haven't connected it yet because I'm afraid that if I switch it so that only 22V is used once, the machine could be damaged. But I have found an electrician who can probably build me a 24V transformer with the necessary power. Unfortunately, EU regulations make it very difficult to find a 24V AC transformer here .....

    It's within 10% of 24V, so you're likely okay.

    if you wire a 2x22 incorrectly. You get 44v and that will damage the machine.

    22v should be fine. Its on that 10% limit allowed. As long as the power rating is right.

    Try these guys

    So the 22V transformer has an output of 5 amps. I don't know if that's enough. I've had someone show me how to wire it up, so I should be able to manage that.
    Anyways i really thank you very much for the links you have found. I've searched really hard online and especially in umpteen shops near me for something like this and haven't found anything.
    An electrician friend of mine has now also found me a good transformer with exactly 24V, the only problem is that it only has an output of 5 amps. It would be much easier to connect than the ring transformers, so I'm almost inclined to give it a try, but what do you think? Because these are my first Pachinkos and I really want to get everything right. If you think it's too low power, I'll just buy the more powerful of the two toroidal transformers you sent me. This should work 100%.
