      Can this be installed on a Legends Ultimate, Legends Gamer or Legends Gamer Mini? Or do those PCBs not support an analog input like the Legends Pinball and Legends Pinball Micro?

      @Brian Walstad I am working on a universal type mounting system so it would work in that regard if you have the space. It works as a simple on/off switch so it could replace any type of microswitch or on off button. It would not work for something that needs a variable type input. I do not own a Legends ultimate but if you are simply replacing or adding a button this would work.

    Super cool mod and it actually seems pretty reasonably priced. I'm impressed that the plunger can actually sense how far back it's pulled. I don't have a Micro, but if I did I would definitely be interested in this.

    Great detailed install video! I had already installed mine using the less detailed video available from the creator and noted that yours covered some items that confused me:
    (1) the tabs on the switch connectors. I'm familiar with slide-on friction fit connectors, but these have little tabs that must be depressed to unlock the connection!
    (2) disconnecting the monitor cabling. This was not detailed in the creator video. I ended up just tilting the monitor open (like on a real pinball table or like a car hood) which provided sufficient space to do the install without disconnecting the monitor cabling.
    (3) I was also afraid to try to slide the monitor out from under the back box, so removed that as well.
    And totally agree - this is a must have! What's a pinball machine without a plunger?

      @@idaho3dprintingdesign376 It's a terrific addition to the Pinball Micro and you've done a wonderful job of packaging it up at a great price. Hope my tips are helpful to others who, like me, are new to the technologies (connectors, switches, etc.) inside the Micro. Everyone with a Micro should pick up a plunger 🙂!

    What would be the easiest base mapping for the plunger? Just set it to 'down' (in JoyToKey or other method) and map in pinball options as needed?

  • @videogamevegas
    @videogamevegas Před rokem +2

    PDubs,
    Is the plunger as smooth as the one that comes on the bigger AtGames Legends Pinball, or possibly a commercial Stern? JUST KIDDING :D
    Thank you for showing this! I don't own the Micro, but I think AtGames may have struck gold with this little guy and it can give them ideas for a possible gen 2, maybe including a plunger, preinstalled vibs, legs, etc.).
    It looks like this plunger gets the job done, but I think the smoothness might need some tweaking (though, that would be a job for the creator). Good first attempt by the seller making a 3rd Party modification.

    Hey Pdubs, I added a pinball "Launch Ball" button to the front right side of my ALU control panel and wired it into the A button via a daisy chain connecton. It it works excellent and it lights up! What is the installed length of this plunger inside? I'd love to have a real plunger!!

  • @GameMaker04

    amazing, are there any third party mods that add a stick and top buttons to the control panel ?

  • @GameMaker04
    @GameMaker04 Před 22 dny +1

    I did the 3d printed mod that uses a button housing and spring, with a 3 prong micro switch. This mod simply sets the microswitch to off when pressed and ON when depressed.. So when you pull back the plunger its effectively the same as pressing the button.. Does THIS plunger you test here work in the same way.. or can it somehow match your pull 1 to 1 like a real game plunger ?

      I honestly can't say for sure. I keep thinking the larger machine the flipper button is further back and this plunger might not be long enough, and the wires long enough
