A little help with my new(est) Twister...

Frizzle Fry · 09-16-2012, 07:38 PM

Recently picked up a Twister, told it was "literally mint/new" and found it had its fair share of nicks and dings... I've also immediately encountered an issue; when I snap a fresh battery in and power on, the solenoid clicks three times and I get a low battery indication from the rear lights.

The dip switches are set to "semi". Any thoughts?

If you put a regular 9v battery in a tribal then it will always show the battery as low. Tribals originally came with a 9.6v rechargeable battery. If you get one of those Kingman Java 9.6v batteries then it will show a full battery.

That's what I'm using. Tried the board from my Mephisto 2.2 and the Twister loom, worked fine, tried the Twister board with the Mephy loom and no dice. Looks like my board is toast.

The board is dead, when you power it one it clicks the solenoid three times and then gives a low battery indicator even with fresh batteries. I checked it out and can't hunt down the problem.

The Mephisto now has the stock board back in it, and I'm running the Twister on a UTB now.
