    Default taking pachinko machines camping

    Ok here is the deal..lol We are going camping and most involved would like me to take a few pachinko machines with me. Anyone have an idea what type of genarator I would need to power 3 0r 4 machines. Would a 1000 watt genarator be good enough or do I need bigger. Thanks to all who can help.

    24 volts, just hook up 2 12 volt batteries in series

    bypass the transformer and hook directly to machine

    if I'm wrong, please someone correct me

    I can't help with your question...but I think that is a great idea. I wonder what the other guests in the campground (?) will think.

    I would rather have a reason to buy a genarator for myself. So a 1000 watt genarator would work fine. I will have them all hooked up at the same time. And I will invite any other campers to come and join the fun. Once they are hooked, I will direct them to this great site here.

    if your going camping and will be around a car then a 800watt inverter is more than enough to do the job .I run two pachislo off a 300 watt inverter . so 4 pachinko should be fine on a 800 watt as for the mentioned generator sure that will handle them just fine .your machines will draw little more than 1 amp a piece at full tilt a transformer rated at 5amp at 24 volt =120 watt per machine .or 120 watt /110 ac = 1.09 amp so you figure 4 machines times 120 watts =480 watts needed to run the machines for a total load of 4.36 amps you could power twice as many from that generator .Have fun.

    ahhhhhh...pachinkos...camping trip... Is this one of those surreal moments. If I may make a suggestion, make this camping trip at your local Embassy Suites.

    1. They have free breakfast
    2. They have free drinks between 5pm and 7pm.
    3. The beds are soft.
    4. This is a big one...They have running water.
    5. This is even a bigger one...They have electricity.
    6. It is a Suite...A bedroom...a living room...plenty of space for your pachinkos.
    7. Did I mention the electricity thing.


    Of course camping is what we did as a family for vaction when I was a child. Usually we camped on our farm and we even got to do farm work during the day...Gee what fun that was...groan...LOL

    In my younger days, my parents would lock me out of the house if I stayed out too late!!!

    I had to sleep in my car, does that count as camping???

    Finally we can get that age old question answered...

    Do bears play pachinko in the woods?

    No no, "If a pachinko machine fevers in the woods, and there's no one there to play it, does it make a sound?"
