We do the following to our games
where we can.
-
Install new power
supplies that run at cooler temperatures
-
Clean dirt and dust
from all circuit boards so they run cooler
-
Replace electronic
components on the game board like capacitors, resistors, diode and
transistors
-
Replace electronic
components in the monitors so they run more efficiently and bring
vibrant life back into them
-
Replace marquee
florescent lighting with LED lighting
-
Replace both
coin door quarter slot bulbs with led lights
-
Adjust the power
supply for the exact voltage needed by the game board
-
Install a second
game board (saves on power used for a second cabinet, lights and monitor)
Doing all of this can usually
bring the power down to 130 watts or less and that is for two games
installed in the cabinet!
Typical power use by an arcade machine
and a 25 in monitor = 190 watts
After cleaning, updating the electronics and using LED lighting = 130 watts
That's a savings of 60 watts per game. If you have 3 games that's a savings of 180 watts of power
and in many cases you get 6 games for players to choose from!
Beyond all of this we will supply
a power strip with a seven day digital timer to turn the games on and
off to match your operating days and business hours. No need remember to
turn them on or off. Why not save every minute on power use you can.
If you place 2 or more games
with us at your location we will also give you one of these digital
timer power strips to use for things that do not need to be powered on
all of the time. This includes printers, computer peripherals, coffee
machines, TVs and the list goes on. We encourage you to also save
energy where you can by using one of these power strips.
