1935 Daval Spot Lite Pinball Demonstration

Holy Crap. I haven't seen this in a long time. Apologies for the poor video quality. This was filmed before we even knew how to fix pinball machines.
This is a demo of our 1935 flipperless pinball machine. It is now in 100% working order since we purchased it as a non-working machine. Total restore time is approximately 50+ hrs. Please contact us if you have any interesting info on Spot Lite. Enjoy!

This pinball machine, along with Bally 1934 Skyscraper, are the only ones I've heard with a continuous ticking sound that sounds like some sort of timer or meter, but what is it? I'm sure these games didn't have a time limit, did they? I've tried to google to find out what makes the ticking sound, but could't find an answer.

Yes, That is indeed a timer. After a certain amount of time, the machine will shut off. This forces the player to play a quick game or put in more money for a new game. Check out our 7-Up pinball vid to hear another game with a timer.

My god that electric "CLUNK" sound when the light show starts is insane.

Looks like a nice game to play! Very nice to see some more people keeping the older ánd the newer pins up and running! Keep it up!

I purchased a Ballyhoo that was supposedly from Rocky Point in Rhode Island, from the owners family - a few years ago. So it is possible your game came from the same collection.

Wouold love to chat with you about your very early games, I have a few as well.
