Just joined the EHOH family! Man, loving this game. I’m running into tilt warning issues with every minor nudge - literally can’t get away with any nudge. I appreciate I can adjust the mechanical tilt mechanism, but is there an adjustment in the service menu? Recall seeing something regarding tilt (beyond # of warnings) as I cycled through the service menu but wasn’t clear on what it was.

Thanks in advance for any guidance.

Quoted from Pmaino:

Are the Medisynl mods still available? If not, are they hard to get/find?

Still building and shipping. Ordered from him 3 weeks ago - mods just shipped. PM him to get added to his production list.

Quoted from paulbaptiste:

I was on a couple lists to be notified when they arrive.....

Missed it as well. Any recommendations for additional lists to register on for future production? I'm on Marco - anywhere else? Thanks in advance.

Quoted from NC_Pin:

wow... all sold

Damn, beginning to feel like I'm always an hour too late when these posts announcing distributor stock come up. Per some great guidance, I've reached out to 8-10 distros and asked to be notified/put on their waitlist but I continue to come up short. Sux!

Congrats to those who found 'em in time.

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFudge! I just can't catch a break on buying one of these before they sell out. On no less than 6-7 waitlists, but clearly the wrong ones. Got a naked EHOH just waiting for a topper - Never had such a hard time trying to spend $1000 on a topper.

Ok, perhaps I'm approaching this wrong. How about $50 "reward" to anyone who spots availability and DM's me BEFORE posting it on this thread!! Seriously - PP F&F will be paid immediately upon a successful purchase. Desperate times, creative measures.

Quoted from EricHadley:

Mine is duct taped to my ass! Never leaving

Note to self….don’t buy a topper from this ^^^guy!

So great to see all these turds (PG-13 version) buying toppers and trying to flip them for 2x the purchase price. Two listed today alone. Sux for those of us with naked EHOH’s looking for one to actually use. $50 reward still out there for anyone who DMs me when they see a distributor with stock.

Quoted from prl867:

I’m about to cash incentivize any one of our techs who can majestically make this game work, without the “cellar lockup Operator alert” flashing on the screen and it consistently clogging all balls behind the house. Whoever makes it just work for a month is going to get a nice little $250 bonus out of my volunteer pocket.
I swear, as much as I love the game, it really frustrates the hell out of me.

I was getting the same message regularly. Went in a really cleaned the optos and made sure they were aligned properly (had to bend some of the metal holding the optos to get it right). It was 100% an opto issue.

The only other time i run into issues with the balls getting "clogged" in the house is when i shoot a ball or two into the cellar when i shouldn't (i.e., when the cellar opens to release a ball). Been working on avoiding that shot as, like you say, there's nothing more frustrating than having to stop a good game to fix it.

Quoted from paulbaptiste:

Add the topper of course if you can find one for retail.

Haha, mission impossible. Only seem to available to flippers these days.

#10897 2 years ago
Quoted from Lermods:

How is that even possible? That must have been a two hour game.

Two hours? Gotta be way more. I played a 45 minute 1.8 Billion point game yesterday - my best yet - I was exhausted.

Quoted from PinStalker:

Seems like the Nov date for builds is holding up. I really thought it was going to get pushed back to Feb.
I had a distro email me the other day that they had toppers incoming and to place a "deposit"...... for a moment I thought "oh yes!! Finally they built some more!!". Then I went to the page, and no, it was a lie..... filthy distro had held back their stock from before and were asking the bargain price of $1875
Noticed a different distro is now charging $9999 for the next Elvira run also.
Dealers are the scalpers.

Yeah, had the same experience from "Gameroom Goodies" out of AZ. Added my name to the list to be notified when the topper was back in stock and started receiving texts and emails this week notifying me they had stock available at $1,875. Frustrating, especially when you see Pinsiders flipping EHOH toppers for the same. I'll keep looking.

Quoted from JustLikeMe:

Have a bit of a problem - when I switch the machine on the cellar kick out coil fires repeatedly and then this alert appears:
[quoted image]
If I start a game the back door shot triggers repeatedly with the ball in the shooter lane. I’ve checked the connections under the playfield and nothing appears to be loose, so I’m guessing it may be an opto issue.
Before I remove the house to get to the opto, can anyone point me in the direction of a replacement opto set? If they do need replacing I’d rather have them to hand.

If you havent already, search the thread for "cellar lockup" and you'll see tons of the same complaint. I had this issue, fixed it by adjusting the optos 3+ months ago and just ran into again this week. Been good for 3 mos. I don't think anyone has come out and said the optos need to be replaced. Just realigned and perhaps cleaned - which is what i'm set to do this weekend.

Appreciate i didn't answer your question on where to find a spare opto, but based on experience it's likely a good cleaning and alignment will do the trick.
