[QUOTE="wilbers, post: 286682, member: 7432"] Sounds exactly like one of the bits they used to have on Top Gear that began "How hard can it be?". Still, location CHECK, rent CHECK, head full of ideas CHECK, electricity costs HOW MUCH? If you are going further down this theoretical rabbit hole, has anyone done a rough calculation of electricity usage of pinball machines from different eras - also how big a difference is there with original 90s machines and those that have been retrofitted with LEDs. Then you would be into the realm of estimating what % it would be on attract mode, and what % it was being actively played. [/QUOTE]
