Pre-Order For Mini Cute Production

[hyp36rmax]

Made some progress so I decided to take a few pictures. I still have to mount the monitors and finish the wiring, but I'm really happy with how these have turned out so far. I have to say I'm amazed at the craftsmanship that's gone into these – they are so well built. My only regret at this point is not buying more

BEAUTIFUL!!!

Can anyone confirm if this 19” WG K7000 (7901) would work/fit for the mini cute? I’m a complete novice and have no idea what I’m doing so if this is a plug and play option that would be great.

LOL. I've been watching that listing as a potential.

I believe the 19" K7000 is the preferred monitor due to a slightly shorter tube neck. I'm sure we will learn more as people get the cabinets and test other monitors though.

Friendly reminder to check the voltage switch on your power supply before use - I ordered a rt-125a from Amazon and it was set to 230v out of the box.

Thanks to remind it
I have bought 4pc of them 3 month ago and they were already set for 230V. I bought them from Turkey's Distributor. Maybe they set them for EUROPE.

Mean Well is Chinese. China is 220V.

You could also argue that 230V is the 'safe setting'. Connecting it to 120VAC when set to 230V doesn't actually result in anything. However, do the opposite and bad things will happen.

It sure doesn't.

Unfortunately the 6 that @theoddtech and I have between us just chirp set to 120V. I think that makes what, 9 so far that aren't working proper out of this batch?

The two I received are just chirping as well

Mine and @Ajax’s are doing the same.

I’m wondering if we’re missing something here. I know that this similar issue happens with the Wei-ya psu in the e3/awsd/vewlix when it’s not fed 100v instead of our standard 120v here in the states.

Anyone with a step down transformer is welcome to give it a shot. The working voltage range for this PSU is 88v to 135v.
**edit**
Looks like the same thing is happening on 100v as well.

Yes we share the same thought
i will do some tests today with 220v and 110v

It chirps with a load on it? What are you guys testing it with? Use something that actually draws some power like a CPS2.

^ This right here ^
I would wager the PSU just needs a load

 

[MoneyPit]

Those things are so very cute, I totally wish I had space to build one.

@Fletcher tested his with a load connected and all it did was chirp.

 

[hursit]

Tested the system without Jamma and it is not working

But it is working with jamma board Tekken 3

Tested with 115v and 220v too

As per buffi's post here https://www.arcade-projects.com/threads/budget-arcade-power-supplies.10294/page-15#post-200770

Adding something like this will fix it right up. https://au.mouser.com/ProductDetail...VUFFOZYE0CWQ==&countrycode=DE&currencycode=EU

Much like my Meanwell, I guess these were from a batch before they made it so no load was required? Mine squeals like a pig when I run a 1 slot MVS until I added one of these.

 

[Lemony Vengeance]

Good info. I had read somewhere (KLOV, I think) last night about how this model once needed a minimum amperage load to operate correctly, but that wasn’t the case now.

I’ll give this a shot.
**edit**
It’s providing steady power with my SF2 board with zero mods..

 

[kikaso]

Someone with an MVS one-slot should test it to see if there’s chirp/whine due to the low current draw. The JAMMA MVS boards draw very little current and would be a good test.
