What do you mean it has batteries?
« on: March 24, 2015, 01:37:08 PM »
Picked up a T2 a few days ago.

Owner had no clue it had batteries and laughed when I told her it did, told me "it plugs into the wall silly"

REMEBER CHECK AND CHANGE YOUR BATTERIES REGULARLY!

So, if you actually install those 3 AA batteries, you don't have to plug it in to the wall, right?

I bought a Pinbot from a kid a few years ago that was amazed when I asked if I could lift the playfield. His jaw almost hit the floor when I did it.  He had no idea that you change bulbs from the bottom side let alone fix broken parts !!!   :roll:
