Quoted from Rock914:

Thanks for the tag lermods
jodyg I can certainly see why you would think that, this is not true of my mod at all.
I built my Game On System to only be on when the Game is On. I utilize a light sensor relay to turn the power on to the system. If you put the sensor near a GI light it will act as a GI relay. Additional sensors can be purchased (up to 8 ) to interact with any light in the game be it GI, flasher, insert, spot or what have you. I built this system as a work around for Stern Spike games since the node boards are so fragile and Stern voids the warranty if we plug into them. So, with this system I can power all my mods and other makers such as Lermods, Mezelmods, speaker light kits, etc... I will be adding a larger power supply to handle all these mods as well as colordmd.
I have not read much of this thread and have always supported and helped the DIY guys. I just want to say Pinstadium lights are a great product and well worth the money in my opinion. Scott does a fantastic job with them and his tech support is excellent.

That sounds like my photosensor control that was installed in your display game in New England that I loaned you. I talked about them 9 months ago on this link https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/%e2%9c%94-lighted-magnetic-hinge-covers-lighted-pinball-mods

Wish you would have at least talked to me about them or give me a bit of credit.

Here is a picture of my Game On setup.
Since you have not responded to your email or PM I guess I will address this here.
Looks like you were if fact using something very similar 9 months ago, so if you want credit here it is. Great way to supply power to your mod without using the machines boards, genius! That is exactly why I created this system to power mods as well as provide interactive features. I looked at your mods yesterday and you supply nothing that does this so I am not sure what the issue is. I did not copy what you were using even though we may be using the same thing. You or your mod were not even a thought in my head so I am not sure why I would have contacted you about it. I like your mods very much and from what I have seen you do nice work.
You did graciously lend me your game to put in Pinstadiums booth at Pintastic, thank you. I wish I understood what you were doing then. I think we could have worked together on this. But you know shows we were both very busy with our own booths and I had a rough time looking after Pinstadiums booth as well. Feel free to email me if you would like to discuss further.
Thanks for all the PM’s guys. To answer some questions. No, I will not build a product similar to Pinstadiums for you. I provide a GI relay that was asked for in this thread. If you want Pinstadiums buy the real deal. I worked with Scott a lot on them before they came to market, they are a fantastic product. If you are making them yourself and need a GI relay and power, I have that.

It does exactly what your item does. It has a 12V input using a 5.5mm x 2.1mm and output. You can hook up a spliter to it just like yours. It has a photosensor that triggers to allow power to go out. The phototsensor is on a 30 wire so in can put next to any light on the play field. How is yours different then mine? You had borrowed my machine that had it in it in June of 2018, then 6 months later you come out with the same exact product I made and designed. How is it different? You even said that when you talked to Lermods, he told you it was the same item I had made. Lermods would know, because I gave him one in June. So, it sounds like Lermods had my back on this.

We have had about 1,000 of these shipped, even Cointaker has been selling my products with this controller for 8 months.

Here is a 91 second video that was posted on Youtube 9 months ago that demonstrated the photosenor relay. Look closely, 12V 5.5mm x 2.1mm out, we even have two outputs to hook up to two items without using a spliter. That has a 1 amp power supply on it in that picture, but our design can handle over 10 amps. The phototsensor is on a wire, so it can be put next to any light in your game to control the power flow. The board even has a pedometer on it so you can control the light input if needed for more delicate inputs. The only difference is you put yours in a box.

Please note that video was posted 9 months ago, 7 months before yours came out, and the video has about 1,300 views.

Their is no difference between your item and mine item, and you had my item in your hand in June of 2018!!

You do nice work Rock.

And Paul, I shipped you one of these relays about 4 months ago.

Quoted from Rock914:

You assume to much.
Why are you posting this? All the answers have been addressed in PM’s. I didn’t copy your stuff. Just because our relays are similar does not mean I copied you. I don’t even see that you sell a power supply like this or one at all. If you still believe you have been wronged offer the same thing as me, hell make it cheaper for everyone. That should help the community.

We have those power supplies in 3 amp, 5 amp and 7 amp. Those hinges only take .25 amps, why would I want to put a larger power supply on that. WOW, you are really reaching. I am not going to reply and clutter up this thread any more. People can see your description, see how it is exactly what is on the 91 second video, that was posted 7 months before you showed your product. You and I even talked about this product standing in front of our photosensor display in New England, and you had it in the game I loaned you at the show. Also, they are not similar, the hardware is exactly the same. Amazing how you made something exactly the same as mine after you saw mine. WOW!

No more replies from me. Sorry to viewers of this thread that I had to call Rock out and waste your guys time, just needed to get the truth out.
