I was ordering a couple new flipper coils from marco and they had two different ones the standard a 5141 and a hot a 5141. What is the difference and is it a good difference. I just replaced all the play field plastics if that makes any difference and the pin is a Gotlieb EM.
Thanks Tony
 
Put them in today and hate them to much kick afraid it will break my new plastics not to mention the balls bounce off the glass now.
 
I have not seen these yet, but sounds like they would be best for EM machines. There are mods to mod coils in EM machines, to do just that. Basically unwind wire off the coils.
I will have to go to Marco to see these...
 
I used these in a EM gotlieb wedge head called lucky hand some what open playfield with a center island I guess that's how I would describe it but now it hits the drop targets really hard so I guess for this application doesn't seem to work. I plan to switch them back found my weak right flipper was actually cased by a dirty switch.
