Quoted from BallyKISS1978:I am bald and take offense. But I totally agree. If you don’t have your pins connected to a power strip surge protector and a switch to turn on the power to them, then it’s a pain in the arse to go between the pins to turn them on or shut them down. I bought a Beastron Remote Control Electrical Outlet Switch on Amazon. I put my pins on a surge protector multi tap.

Better yet hook the pins up to a smart switch. Where the stupid on/off switch is on a pin is pretty much at the bottom of the list of concerns.
I don't really care for the Stern screech either but always wondered how they came up with that awful sound. With all the sounds you can record and play for a free game, who decided that sound is the one that needs to be used on every single Stern game ever made? Why not a bell sound, a beep, train horn, or even a special call out? Nope, we get nails dragged across a chalkboard mixed with stepping on a cat's tail. I guess the idea is to get your attention and it sure does.
Still, the worst ever is the Stern pf peg supports. No question. So much fun to have to deal with those pegs and wrestling the pf back into place on my MET. At least they went back to supports and added a handle in the back on recent games.
