    The cointaker shakers are crazy strong, and the power adjusting boards will indeed blow out the cabinet node board.

    Sorry for the sarcastic answer, but the real solution is to buy shakers from Pinball Life. You might sell that one and recoup some of the money.

    Quoted from jgreene:

    Can you pull the weights off and cut them down in size? Less mass = less imbalance force.

    I did that to a red tremor once that came installed in my Metallica. I cut off a huge chunk of each weight and it did next to nothing. I had to do the power adjuster knob mod. Fortunately you could do that with the SAM games. Even still it just didn't feel right because with the knob the speed was too slow and it was kind of a slow wobbling rather than a shaking. The red tremor is basically useless if you ask me. Not sure what they were thinking.
