Re: Re: FS: 4 x Wells Gardner 19K6100 color vector monitors in Marlborough, MA

Hey Joel,
I'd love to snag one of those 6100s as a spare, but that's a little rich for my blood right now.  :^\

Anyways, I don't suppose you have any spare Star Wars boards you would be interested in making a deal on?

Thanks!
Rob

Hi folks,

I haven't been around vector list for a long time... I've decided to get out of the hobby completely, and am now in the process of selling all of my games and support equipment. 

I have 4 Wells Gardner 19K6100 color vector monitors for sale. Pickup from my home in Marlborough, MA only at this time. I am not interested in shipping these due to the fragile nature. Someone mailed one to me 16 years ago, and I have NO idea how it made it intact, but I don't wish to repeat that.

One of them has some Tempest burn in, but it's honestly not noticeable when viewed behind the smoked glass. The other three have excellent looking tubes.

Three of the monitors work perfectly as-is (One of these has the slight burn-in). I just powered them up yesterday to verify that all was good, and they are. They have been sitting for over 10 years, and could probably benefit from a cap-kit at this point, but still, they are beautiful displays and you will not be disappointed. 

The 4th monitor (no burn in) needs a minor amount of work to get it operational again. I had relocated the 6 transistors off of the chassis onto separate heat sinks back in the day when I was concerned with heat build up. The transistors are no longer wired up, and you would need to solder the wires to the sockets and connect the wires to the red AMP connectors that go to the deflection board. The monitor worked perfectly last time it was powered up, but that was a few years ago. I have new transistors, new sockets (original sockets, too), and they just need to be soldered together. 

I have 4 LV2000 KITS available, and I will include one kit with each monitor. I never got around to installing them. These are from the original production run, so they are kits that you build. I know that in later years, they came assembled, but not these. 

The three monitors that require no fiddling are $350 each. The 4th one that requires the transistor work (but comes with all parts) is $325. All come with 1 LV2000 kit.

If you are interested in a monitor, or 2 or 3 or 4, please send me an email here:  joel@helitronix.com

I hope this will help some of you keep your vector games going strong.  I thought I was going to do this forever, but I finally decided it was time to move on.  I hope some of you can put these to good use.

I have a beautiful Tempest for sale, too, and a bunch of Atari vector game boards for sale too.  I haven't made a comprehensive list, but I'll do that soon.

Joel
