I didn't realize that a badly worn eos would cause as much havoc as it has.
Blowing fuses. Killing both left and right side.
To bad it's so expensive to get parts with shipping in Canada.
So happy whirlwind is up and running.

High power EOS (older generation of pinballs) can be problematic for sure. This is especially true if a previous owner just bought a generic "Williams/Bally flipper rebuild kit" and didn't pay attention to the hardware generation. WPC EOS will NOT work on a sys 11 - or at l;east it won't work for long. New EOS switches can't handle the high power of older flipper systems like sys 11.

Way better how they work now. Wish we could retrofit sometimes!

That one on the right in the pic is beyond worn. Lol.
