Would love to see a video of how it looks during gameplay.

Is it possible to buy just the projector and use the nice crystal I already have in mine (not the plastic thing from Stern)?
Quoted from jrobinso99:Hi all, I'm working on the design of an add-on module that will allow Retina Burner's to be dialed down a bit based on preferences. It also provides a smooth glowing effect that eliminates the flickering that is normally created by the game. I'm putting orders on hold now since I want people to understand what the new options will be before they make any decisions. My prototype so far looks great but I need to iron a few things out, which I hope to do in the next few weeks.

Glad to see you are waiting instead of sending out something you are not happy with. Great move!
Does anyone else have flickering when the Palantir is active? Mine flickers on and off. Not really a dimming. It's the newest version and I just got it installed.
This is mine and doesn't seem to be doing the dimming and fading...
There are no numbers or letters on the connector.
Here are some pictures of the product received for the seller to look over:

Quoted from Atomicboy:With the fader add on thing, mine does not do anything like that anymore.
Mine was supposed to be with the dimming and fader V5. Just got it about two weeks ago.
Quoted from PinZig:I don't have a picture of mine, but the adaptor/connector looks different than the one I received. Send Jay a PM if you haven't already.
Already done. He asked me to post some images. Hopefully, he can send me what is missing.
Jay, I sent you a few reply PMs. Just so everyone knows, I don't think I ordered the wrong product. When I ordered, I recall the site having two listings only: "Palantir v5 retina burner with fader and dimming module" and "Palantir v5 standard with fader and dimming module". Of course, now the site has different listings, but I swear this is how it was. When it added to my cart, it just said retina burner v5, so I am thinking that might have been the mix-up. Not placing blame, just trying to figure out what occurred. I didn't even see a way to order the retina burner without the fader and dimming when I ordered.
Does anyone recall if V5 was ever offered without the fader and dimming module or was that v4? I thought the price went from $100 to $125 when the dimming and fader were added. I was more than happy to pay for that though since it looks so much better. Also, the size of the crystal is MUCH bigger than is shown on the website.
Has anyone been able to change the left/right orientation of the crystal? My eye is showing toward if you were standing in from of the shooter lane and not in between the flippers. Seems a bit off. I have changed the elevation with the washer under the side screw deal.
Ok, good news. We figured it all out. I was confused because the DESCRIPTION of the product references the dimming fader module, but doesn't say it comes with it. But it also doesn't say it is "sold separately". That would be my one suggestion so people know to order both parts: the mod and the module both.
Jay is helping me greatly on this and I have to give him kudos. It wasn't his mistake, but he is understanding and helpful like everyone says. A+ guy.
