Picked this up a couple weeks ago and decided to work on it while taking a break from the Battlezone I've been fighting with.

First thing to do was replace the installed Tron joystick with a proper Satan's Hollow joystick...

Next up was to replace the monitor. The monitor that was in it was a Commodore monitor that the previous owner put on a standard 13" monitor frame and mounted in the game. There were a couple problems with this so replacing it was a no brainer...

Next up is to add a MCR power supply adapter from ArcadeShop.com. Right now there is a switcher hacked in there but there is a hideous hum during the attract mode and you can tell the reset circuit is missed due to it not powering up consistently.

I think it's going to stay next to Gorf...

First real game I score ~75,000 and had a ball... can't wait for my son to play and get addicted. I better sneak a few more quiet games in before I tell him it works. :D
 
Awesome looking Satan cabaret. Looks like you moved the games around since I was there. Let me know if you ever decide to sell that Gorf.

Yep, moved things around and fit FIVE more games down there. :D Needless to say A/C is on the list for next spring.

Nice. You got a good Midway row going.

Thanks... I'm loving these little games. :)

Looks great next to Gorf! What a nice looking game...

Yes... it's a very "nice" game.

Looks good Jeff, I like those Midway cabarets! Keep 'em going! You need to get either a Pac cabaret or an Omega Race cabaret to squeeze in there as well!!
 
Oooooohhh... Do you still have the trigger mechs for the Tron? My Tron has the SH trigger setup, and I'm not sure what I need to get...

Thanks. Omega Race is on the other end of that row and we "kind of" have a mini-Pac down on that end also... it's just converted into a mini-Tron. :)
 
I see the Tapper and looks like the back of Super Pac, with the Satans Hollow that makes three. What are the other two?

Did the AS adapter fix the hum? I have a Kick with the adapter in it and the hum is really bad during attract mode.

P.S. Nice looking cab

i had the same issue with the original style mcr adapter (pre AS) on my satan's hollow, and i stuck a 4700uf25v cap from the 12v to ground on the switcher and it took away probably 80% of the hum.

Not sure yet... it's being delivered today. :) But I've used one in our Tron and Root Beer Tapper and neither of those made noise. :dontknow:

Looks great...definitely leave it there in the lineup. Think I could give it a try next time I'm in town? :D

Heh, sure. It looks way different down there now... much more arcade-ish.
