Just finished installing the kit on my TAF - UV glow and GI controlled. I was able to get rid of my previous 3 sets of playfield blocking spotlights which was a benefit I hadn't thought of.

I am pretty sure I will remove the purple led strips from the backlip and ball return trough as well after seeing it all together now.

Below are 3 photos : pinstadium strips ON, pinstadium off, and finally my old setup with spotlights. I am having fun playing with the color settings, so not even sure what I used for these pics.

Holy shit. I thought these would be the best in TAF. This may have just confirmed it.

What is the status of preorders?

Mark

I've been trying to capture good video of mine but other things (especially the new game I just added to the lineup) are keeping me from devoting enough time to it. I hope to have something worthy of posting by this weekend. I don't have any kind of streaming setup so a DSLR on a tripod is the best I can do. I'll also post my review of the kit in WOZ at the same time.

Scott,
ANY chance you can PM me to tell me what my order status is ?
Thanks,
Kim

Scott, same for me. I know you're very busy but I would love to have a eta date instead of eta soon. Thanks!

Was this kit supposed to come with any installation instructions? I'm sure it's quick and easy, but mine arrived with absolutely no documentation and I'm not sure how I'm supposed to connect any of it. I didn't see anything on the website either.

Mine wasn't in the spam folder. I just never got it. Scott took care of it though.

I was just saying I never got any email when shipped they just showed up on my doorstep. I thought you had said you were going to email everybody when they shipped out. Not an issue they're installed,I still have to get you some pics of them and the small issue I had with my Dredd. Not a problem with the product Dredd is just a little on the tight side to get these in due to the crane,metal plate on the right side backing the ramp up and the high outlane walls. Mike

Received my kit from Scott this past week and I'm super impressed with the kit and the way he is conducting business. I followed this project from its initial release and watched him take suggestions from us all and work them into the product. I could tell he was all in on making these the best he could and for that reason I felt safe jumping in on the preorder.

Once received I found the kit easy to install. The directions in the email were pretty straight forward. I installed into a Soooky Rob Zombie which at the time the directions didn't specify what connector on the driver board you were supposed to connect to. Even without that information it was pretty straight forward where it went. To double check before I ruined anything I shot an email to Scott and he quickly got me the answer as well as informed me he had updated the directions. I also encountered some trouble getting my flasher feature to work. Not a fault of the kit whatsoever I just had my wires backwards on the flasher I was trying to tap into. I emailed Scott mid day on a Sunday and he had a reply within 10 minutes and continued to provide support throughout the process until I got it working.

The app is super easy to work and adjust your lights to what you like. Below are some examples of my game. The pictures were taken in a dark room and without the kit you can really see how dark this game is. The other photos are with the kit installed with me changing around the color settings in the app to show how you can adjust to your liking

I purchased the kit with the UV + glow and boy oh boy is that thing AWESOME! When the flasher you tied into goes off. Be prepared for an awesome show of light across your Playfield! In my opinion the flasher feature is a must have. I also opted to purchase the GI module which will shut off the pinstadium kit when your GI lights turn off for certain modes and this also works flawlessly.

If you can't tell by this review I am super impressed with the kit. It definitely added some bling and needed lighting help for my machine. I'm certain that even if you are overall happy with your lighting this would be an awesome mod to have due to just how many colors you can customize too. This thing is definitely a capable kit which will allow you more color options for your machine by purchasing one product.

As my collection grows I'm certain this will be one of the first mods I buy for my machines. If you're on the fence about this don't be! It's a great product being produced from a stand up guy. I'm also betting he's got other ideas for this product as well and I can't wait to see how it evolves.

Great work Scott!

I just picked up a kit for RZ too. What settings did you use for the color? Did you tie the flash into the purple flasher? Finally, are you saying that the flash polarity matters (works one way but not the other)?

I indeed used the purple flasher and yes polarity seemed to matter for it to work. Instead of taking apart the plastics to get to the flasher base I used the provided wire taps. The white alligator clips will be for your GI connection and the yellow are for the flasher. If you follow the yellow wires back you will see the color changes to orange on one and I believe green on the other. Just match the wire with orange to the orange wire coming off the flasher and you should be all set.

I believe the baseline settings that I was told by Scott was to set red at 100 and draw back the white to 65-75%. My picture that makes the game look purple is setting red to as high as it will go (255) blue is set midway so about (155) and I lowered the white to about 10-15%. The great thing about this kit is no setting is the correct one. You can change it to whatever you like. Play around with different color combos and see what fits you. Super easy to do and is kind of fun seeing what you can come up with.

You'll love the kit I have no doubt. If you need pictures or help shoot me a message and I'll be glad to help out.

What's the approximate wait if somebody orders one of these today?

I would email scott.

cool I'm on the pre order list so I guess I should get mine soon..

Here are a couple videos I shot of the kit in my WOZ last night. I don't have a good setup for shooting these because my tripod is pretty short so the angle isn't great and it makes the LCD glare look a lot worse than it does to the eye. I have the GI tied to a GI light in the back right corner and the UV Glow Flasher connected to the Red Witch Flasher. WOZ is a real challenge on both fronts and I'm still searching to see if there is a better place to connect the GI to. As for the Flasher, WOZ only has two flashers - the white and red ones inside the witch "dome", I'm also going to continue to experiment with that and see if there's a better choice. I left the three spotlights (GI) on in my game so there's a little ambient lighting when the GI for PS cuts off. With the current setup the GI cuts off quite a bit including during all the CB modes (not just lights out) and during battle the witch. It also does funky effects when the ball is on the Castle Mini-PF (if not in a different MB) and when shooting for Munchkin loops (if not in a MB). If this isn't to your liking tying it to the spots does a great job of just leaving it on whenever you are in a game. I put up a pretty good (1.8M) game with it in this setup and when you have ECMB + a CB mode going and the flasher goes off - WOW! I wouldn't recommend it for anyone that may be susceptible to epileptic seizures, that's for sure.

I have the color set to turquoise (I thought Red would be the best but it's not good at all IMO) and brightness set for that and the warm white to ~50%. These were shot in a completely dark room with my DSLR.

^^^ Great videos thanks for posting.^^^

Can't wait for mine to arrive. I decided it's going to be installed on Baywatch instead of Mustang. The GI flashing will be awesome during the lightshow when two balls are locked and trying to lock the 3rd.

Mine arrived today!! (order 77) dont know what happened to the email but oh well lol.

Thanks for including your order #

It would be cool if the batch/order #'s were posted as they are mailed.

And why would that be cool??

I have several questions.

I ordered for my TAF. Let's say I move to a JJP game. Are the connectors different, and if so are there adapters?

I recently saw video of some game play from Houdini and couldn't help but think how much it would benefit from the kit.

I saw in the app the fade feature. Is this for GI or is the fade programmable for the flash, in case we want a more subtle flashing effect?

I'm starting to see all sorts of possibilities for this kit. I'm wondering if a future upgrade might allow connecting to multiple lights, not just GI and flash.
Not that I fully understand it yet but imagine if several lights could be tapped and different lighting fx programmed for each. Or maybe I'm misinterpreting something?

Also what about a time of day setting where daylight (or lights on) has one setting and night) or lights off has another?

Ok, Jumpin on the PinStadium bandwagon... Just ordered a UV GLow/GI set for my Tron LE...

Will post a vid when I get them and installed...

Any idea when i can expect mine .
I was in the first 100

The same with me, please send a mail to me.

Thanks

Eckhard

Scott, sent you an email. Looking for a update on shipping also. Thanks-Joe

Just a quick question, is it like Philips hue but for a pinball machine? If so, what's the point? Why not use interactive lighting like the one pinduino is offering?

Hah. Please add me to the list of “when’s my cool toy that I pre-ordered get here?”

Well I don't want to speak for pinstadium, but it is fully interactive if you buy the GI plus flasher option.

If you read this thread and watch the videos you will get a good idea of what it does.

The big thing about Scott is that he apparently is an app designer.

So aside from the fabrication aspect and all the permutations he went through, from a programming aspect the product seems to have lots of potential.

No.

So we can estimate when to expect to receive our order. We know our # and we see that kits are going out. We just have no idea what # they are on. Assuming PS is shipping in order (good assumption?) those with pending orders can get a feel for how close they are to having their order ship.
