IN for updates. I pick ours up Friday.

#35 8 years ago

picking ours up shortly.....greaaaaaaaaat.

#37 8 years ago

I think Ill remove the tilt bob and just shake the hell out of it, lol.

#44 8 years ago

Set ours up tonight, standard pitch, level sidd to side. No sdtm out of genes head. We put about about 15 games on it.

ALMOST got the love gun myst effect...totally blew the shot lol.

OK, so now we have about 20+ games on it, I can confirm this is also happening on ours. It doesnt go SDTM EVERY time, but it does a times. The VUK sits there trying to lock the ball over and over and over and then it finally pittles out.

Pretty lame, hope they release a service bulletin and a fix.

Quoted from snaroff:

Please call Stern support (and/or your distributor) and tell them about the VUK problem. Don't assume they are going to fix anything without speaking up. The more people speak up, the more likely it will be fixed.

I already emailed my dist and hes got an email out to them.

Quoted from paratrooper:

According to the ticket I have placed with Stern and in talking with their tech support their response:
"I spoke with product development about this, The next software update will address this problem."

Thats what i heard too.

#62 8 years ago

Dude they are releasing a software update...its sit and wait now.

#65 8 years ago

I totally havent been able to get love gun going yet. Ive had it set up, ready to go, and I always miss the shot and drain, lol.

I agree, wheres the skill shot? I dont think there is one yet. I thought maybe lightly plunging and hitting the spinner did it, but nope.

Im tired of pulling the glass to adjust the optos. Ours wont lock properly 1/5 games and then repeatedly does it after a few times. Game is unplayable.

#93 7 years ago

Alright so I am still having issues with my demon lock. I had thought it was an alignment issue because if I pushed a little on the first set of optos it would fix it....for like 1-2 games max. Now its back to not recognizing the first ball every game. So I opened her up AGAIN today. Pulled the "cape" plastic shroud, and pushed on the optos a bit again. Left the cape off, played a game, all good. Put the shroud back on, back to square 1. So.....needless to say the shroud is staying off. I didnt do a damn thing other than remove that plastic shroud and now it works perfect every time. So W T F. Grrrr.
