  • Medieval Madness Merlin Ilumination

    Today I take a blue Led 5mm with 39Ohm Resistor and connected it parallel to the Merlin Magic Lamp.
    It is flickering to much, so I will add a Capacity to reduce it.
    First I use some head shrink tube to reduce the angel of radiation and connect it to the merlin magic lamp (here you have to check the polarity).

  • MM Catapult mod

    Today I got the Capatult Led mod from pimpmypin.com

    The documentation told me to remove the catapult ramp.
    Oh no, so much work … There must be an easier way..

    I opened the pinball like this and put in the led pcb:

    The tricky part is the screw on the left site…
    I used bothsided adhesive to get the screw at the right position:

  • Medieval Madness easy pimp

    Hi Folks,
    today I have done some easy mods for my mm.
    I started with a Merlin and replaced the original fire with a magic ball 🙂

    Here you can see some pictures (easy going…)

    With the help of some hot glue the magic ball fits.
