Hi

Just doing the maths on max pinball machines per van. Luton van Max weight including van and load is 3500KG. Van weight (roughly with full tank) 2,280kg leaving 1220 for payload and passengers.

Trying to figure out how much my EMs weigh. Pretty sure single player weight is less than modern day Sterns or same, but muliplayer i think will weigh more.

Anyone got any weights for EMs?

It seems my Stern Spiderman weighs in at 250ibs / 113.4Kgs.

So i could get 10.7 tables in a Luton with no driver and no passengers :-). So would assume roughly 100Kg per person 8.9 tables - so 9 tables after i use a bit of fuel or take a good dump!

If i had a more accurate figure form my zacs i could be more accurate with the weights.

I have checked zac website, IPDB, Flyers.

Cheers

JB
 
Can't help with the specifics, but good on you for putting in the effort. For what it's worth that's similar to what I worked out ages ago when this came up with our NLP van runs. Broadly 8-10 pins max depending on passengers, luggage and how many WOZ's were in the back 😁

That said, we were jamming them full to capacity for a good few years and luckily managed to avoid any issues that I'm aware of, though no doubt the suspension did not appreciate it (and with hindsight, we were definitely over the legal weight limit)
