So I am curious why do valley tables still use lead acid batteries for the DBA and other electronics? Isn't their a better battery now a days?

Thanks

I will call them then. I assumed that you guys would know since you are pool players. It must just be me that needs to learn everything about pool. Like how much money each pool table costs for a game where I live and put it in a speadsheet so I know. Also weather the places take quarters or dollar bills. If they give you bonus games if you put in a 10 dollar bill. Stuff like that.

So lead acid batteries seem like old technology. I would assume that every bar box would be on litium ion or something. Also over half of the bar boxes where I live dont have a dollar bill aceptor because they had issues keeping them charged. So I looked up the speaks for valley online and found out they use lead acid. So that is why I am wondering.

I wanted to know if that was possible so we could make the world safer by telling valley about this exploit.

Yes it's only you justin that wants to know that dumb shit
 
The simple answer:

Because they are cheap and reliable. You don't need to worry about climate or anything with the most basic battery.

Swap in your own with the two-post tops if you want a fancier battery

So you would recommend replacing a very stable battery technology that works just fine for this application with one that can catastrophically fail, by bursting into flames, if it's ever overcharged or over-discharged, in an environment that battery care is likely to be neglected? Seems like a solid approach.

I look forward to more of your game changing ideas.

When does a lithium ion battery burst into flames?
