Madaracs Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 OK, everyone... Madaracs' presents the World's Most Boring Videos... FEATURING... Wait for it.... THE EXPANSION MODULE #2 KEY SWITCH MODIFICATION! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uCa5K7JzzZA The key switch turned out to really be a toy switch... it is VERY small. So it was easy to add it to the EM2. Plenty of room and a nice fit. I -=am=- disappointed that it doesn't turn clockwise but I may reverse the wires to make it work the way I want it to. There are tiny little red/green dots on it indicating which way it should be turned for the on position which is how/why I wired it up that way. I'd say this mod is complete. :-) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uCa5K7JzzZA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIAD Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 Let me first start out by saying that "I am flat-out jealous!". Your EM#1 mod has turned out to be simply incredible and will definetly become the envy of the CV Community, perfect placement of the key power switch I might add. Love the video also... think it should be nominated for an Oscar! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ten-four Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 Your whole setup rocks! Wish I had the talent,patience to do that kind of work. Hi Madaracs. I completely agree. Not only for your ColecVision and Turbo mod. but also the wall you made for your flat panel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Yurkie Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 Is there a way to get the key cylinder to turn clockwise? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madaracs Posted November 7, 2010 Author Share Posted November 7, 2010 Is there a way to get the key cylinder to turn clockwise? Yeah, i think if i just cross-wire it--it should work in reverse. The key is designed wrong as I explain above, but if it works in reverse...as I believe it should... I'll be set. Thx for all the compliments!

Thx for all the compliments! No dice on the switch. I wasn't thinking straight. The switch leg is still the same when you switch the + and - on this switch. So it still only turns on when opening the circuit counterclockwise. *le sigh* Edited November 7, 2010 by Madaracs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ransom Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 Too bad about the switch, but it's still an awesome mod! Just tell people it's British. Everyone knows they do everything backwards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
