Thanks for the kind words guys! I'm glad you all are enjoying it.
Another positive word for Caker here!! I have these in two of my machines and now I wouldn't play them without these boards he makes. These are must haves......ESPECIALLY to tone down the lighting behind the BG's. PF glare from them is horrid.....but not with Cakers boards. Love'em.
Just installed in my Batman Forever. Worth the none clicking relay during the multiball being lit alone hah. Thanks, will probably pick one up for jurassic park in the future
Quoted from mdclips:Im in - you can send me an invoice I guess - if you have them in stock
The order page is back up at the website; you can just click the PayPal over there and I'll get one out to you. Supply is getting pretty low so the waitlist page will be back up before too long.
Ok Robocop was down for a bit while I replaced the speaker grill and changed out some bulbs after spending some quality time on it today this kit is a must. What a difference in the over light show.
Congrats guys! You've depleted my stock on these again, so the Waitlist is back up on the website. You know the drill, if you want to sign up for a future run head over there and enter your info. You'll be notified once we have enough folks on the list to cover another run. Thanks again to all of you for your interest!
I did some Energi-Maestro hype on my Twitch stream the other night, and will be doing a live installation stream soon on the WWF Royal Rumble pin. Such a cool product!

Cool! Got a link?
Just a quick update, I've got several of you signed up on the waitlist. As of today we are about half way there to run a new batch. Keep that interest coming!
My board which is installed on a location game is 100% solid. Have to say you have a very robust design here.

If you dont have me down, pleae put me down.
I will take 2 more boards.
Quoted from trevorm:I'll take 3. I'm on the waitlis
You already seem to be on the list for 3, so we're good
Quoted from Whysnow:If you dont have me down, pleae put me down.
Whysnow, If you can, please add yourself to the list here: https://sites.google.com/site/energimaestro/waitlist this way I can make sure and get you on the email list when we are ready to go live.
Hey everyone, a quick update: Looks like we have enough names on the wait list to run the next batch! I have sent an email to everyone on the list asking for a confirmation of interest so that I can make sure and order enough parts for everyone. If you though you were on the list, but did not get an email, just shoot me a PM and I can get it sorted out. Thanks again everyone for the interest! I'm glad the kit is finding so many homes in your machines!
Quoted from Tickerguy:Am I correct that this is not compatible with the WhiteStar games (e.g. Apollo 13)?
You are correct; this is not directly compatible with whitestar. Perhaps with some hacking....
Hey guys, just wanted to let you know that the parts orders were placed today! A usual I ordered for a few extras, so it you just missed out, don't worry, I'll probably have you covered....for a little while anyway. I'll post here when kits are built and ready for shipment. I'm targeting the end of June for shipping finished kits.

It doesn't do all the fancy control stuff that EnerGI Maestro does, but GIzmo works with Whitestar games and smooths out the flashing GI.

caker137, I hope you don't mind me posting this in your thread.
Well I bought one for checkpoint and GNR and very happy . Playing stern white star VND today and noticed same annoying flashing g.i. Was curious if kit could be used on white star and above posts answered my question. Don't have skills enough to come up with a hack so I'll go with Herg gizmo . I have one of his kits in my getaway and was pleased. Thanks for making these guys.
I just added an additional request, so now I'd like 2 of them. One for Hook and one for Star Trek 25.

I see you there on the list, and have you covered! Kits should be shipping next week.
Kits are ready! If you signed up on the wait list you should have received an email invoice from PayPal. If you didn't see the invoice, remember to check your spam folder, and if it is still nowhere to be found, PM or email me and I will resend it for you. Thanks everyone for the interest! Great to see these things finding homes in all your machines.
Hey everyone! All of the pre-ordered kits have been delivered to their new homes and that leaves just a few extra kits available for purchase straight out of inventory. I have updated the website to allow for buy-it-now should anyone want to get one now. Kits usually ship the very next day via USPS priority. Here is the direct link:

Just click "Get It Now" in the top navigation menu.
If you have any questions, as always, just let me know.
Received and installed on my DESW tonight. This is an awesome mod and it allowed me to do exactly what I wanted - dim the lighting in the backbox. No more reflection off the playfield glass!
Thanks for making this - highly recommended!
Anyone put one in a taIes from the crypt. Sometimeso it strobes so hard you feel light headed love to make it stop if I can
Quoted from Zitt:I'm considering this for my DE Star Trek... but not sure I actually need this yet.
This would only really be useful for LED based GI; right?
IIRC, I use LEDs for the backbox... but haven't done much conversion away from incandescent on the PF.
Thoughts?
Yup, only helpful if you have mostly LEDs installed. Do that first and afterwards if you notice the GI LED flashing being overpowering, then you could consider ordering a kit.

I did on the one I used to own.....best MOD ever on TFTC!! Worth every penny.

On my Baywatch, the OCD board got rid of the relay clicking in the backbox, an added benefit.
Just installed on my tftc. Seriously worth every penny. No more relay noise, totally fun to do custom lighting and during multiball you can actually focus and it looks beautiful. I had some extra mods I installed and when I buy the board in I had to swap wires. Guessing polarity changed.go buy this now

Nice catch. The GI actually gets converted from AC to (pulsed) DC, so the polarity of LED that weren't fully rectified now have to be correct with the kit installed.
Beautiful machine btw!

Thanks great product. Gonna share as much as I can. Best plug n play mod. You really did a great job. Need to get the word out
Quoted from caker137:Quiet in this thread lately. Everyone still enjoying the EnerGI Maestro in your machines?
I have had 2 kits sitting on my workbench since last spring! Hoping to find the time to install over the holidays ....
Just added my name to the waitlist... any idea how long it might take to the next build run? Alternatively if anyone has one sitting around I'd happily buy it off you.
New batch coming soon! There's still time to get on the wait list since I'll make a few extra. I'll keep everyone posted as parts roll in and boards get built, and I get an idea of when these will be ready to ship. As always, thanks for the interest!
Quoted from TxJay:Yeah, put me on the wait list for 2 if available.
Feel free to head over to the website and sign up on the list. That guarantees that your email is in the pool for when I send announcements and build updates! Thanks!
Finally installed the EnerGI Maestro in my Checkpoint with Rottendog power board. There's a few oddities now that I need to look at... first game the DMD didn't show the score (although everything else on the DMD was fine) - subsequent games all was fine, random unexpected callouts, and GI on PF going completely dark when I don't recall it ever doing that before... anyone else seen these?
