After December 31, 2014, my "Ewe22" replacement security chips for WPC-S and WPC-95 machines will no longer be available for sale. After Williams closed, in 2001 I started selling the Ewe22 to fulfill the needs of operators and collectors from all over the world. It's been a great run but it's time to move on to other projects and endeavors. At some point (likely soon), the blanks from Microchip will be no longer available, and it's not really worth investing in a rewrite on a different platform. BAA/PPS got the original code from WMS and have been selling the barcode-label originals as well (search for "security chip" on BAA's website.)

Orders for chips at $29/each will be fulfilled until 12/31, or until my stocks are depleted. I'll still be in the hobby and available for warranty support after that time.

Thanks to everyone that has purchased a Ewe22!
