Weird Al seems to continue the streak.

Totally agree. But not being able to get pins out the door is really hampering their penetration...Cactus Canyon LE delays are ridiculous.

You need to have active cooling for the flippers on AP machines. They're using PROC3 and the coils get hot pretty quickly. Once they're cooled, they're fine. Of course, this doesn't help you on location, but that's the answer.

Home Pros FIVE MONTHS after the Prems and LEs instead of right after is Stern's new play, debuted with Bond to encourage home users to buy a Prem or LE so they don't have to wait 5 months or more for their Pro. Putting a huge gap AFTER the LE/Prem run before running the home pros is new. Naked money grab to push home users into the much more profitable Prem and LE tier. I wouldn't be surprised if the Pros eventually become location only and they just stop making them direct for home. It's the slimmest profit margin by a LOT now that the Prem and LE margins have been fattened.

Time to move it to another location. Sounds like it's just not vibing with that location's crowd.

MEI/Mars 110/120v bill acceptor with a 300 bill stacker. $1 ones that aren't reprogrammable are cheap ($100-$125 used) and fine, but if you spring for the ones that are reprogrammable and can take $1,$5,$10,$20 you can make $5 an option and you'll be surprised how many $5s you'll find in the mix when you collect. 12v acceptors are the most expensive because you rarely see them used for cheap.

The newer MEI/Mars units (anything made in the last 15 years or so) or if it's a little older but has "MARS Flash Port" on the serial number label. But you need a programmer also to do it also (acceptors + reprogramming module to program unlimited acceptors). It doesn't make it so it takes bills it wasn't originally designed to take (a $1 acceptor can't be made into a $1, $5, $20 acceptor AFAIK), but it will let you update the acceptor when they come out with new bill designs.
