Where the heck to get a 10 opto board?

My ebay has failed. My google has failed. I've even tried specifying countries. They're out of stock intergalactically, it seems. Does anyone know where to get a new 10 opto board? Ideally one of the snazzy upgraded low-power-consumption ones?

Thanks!

WCS. But I think it's a standard board, it fits like a dozen games.

Yeah, it looks like you're screwed unless you can find a spare one from a fellow collector.

You can try e-mailing GLM at [email protected] to get an ETA (if they'll be making more):

I have been looking for one also.

I have one for sale if needed. It was for a BSD. I got it from Great Lakes Modular. Sold BSD instead of using it

Why can't you repair the one you have. Usually you can just replace the LM339 chips for the non working Opto and it'll be good to go.

I don't really know what's wrong with it. It does work. But it heats up so much that it fills the room with a burning smell. And whatever is happening is not covered in Pinwiki, nor does anyone else seem to experience it. I'd rather get a low-energy consumption replacement and hopefully resolve the problem and have the pinball working than tinker for another 6 months with a non-working pinball.

Just purchased one from a fellow pinsider. Behold, the power of pinside!

I got confused, I thought you were talking about your DW which has 5 opto pairs.... and I could not figure how you could make that any more power efficient.
