Can you make a timestamp for that?

Is there any consideration for creating a video for use of the GPStar's Pack Kit with other Proton Pack options? The HasLabs Pack is not an option for anyone any more. The options available to most people in 2024 is: the "Life Sized" version of the Spirit Halloween OR the QPACK 3D Print kit (or any other from scratch option.)
While there were likely a few people who this kit would had been handy for in 2023... here in 2024, everyone looking at a new Pack build has to pretent the HasLabs Pack never existed.
Dude, when I got to the "format your SD card" I knew this was comprehensive AF. THANK YOU! You are the GOAT!
Can't wait for these to ship out! My anticipation is going crazy!!
Amazing, so excited and can't wait for the add on video
Thank you sir! FYI for the wand screw caps the swiss army reamer worked extremely well.
Wow, awesome video and awesome instructions.
The montage cut at 46 minutes....I'm dying!
it's the music man loool
@@jonogunnWill this work for the Spirit halloween $250 Proton Pack?
We plan to adapt it to the spirit pack but that’s in the future and unsure when. We would like to see if there is a market for it first too
One thing i noticed is that the high sounding pur when you switch on activate doesn't wind up from a low pitched pur before it settles on the idle sound of it. I believe it previously did on the board a few months back but obviously less screen accurate. But I do love how it was in the film with it winding from low to its starting tone after switching activate. 🤔
Awesomeness 😊

I was have some pretty serious issues getting connection between the wand and the pack when I built mine, using the essentials kit.
Ultimately it boils down to the wires in the hose and wand handle going into the socket connectors. The clinko connectors are simply not meant for such a small gauge wire.
To combat this, on the tips of each wire, I added a small bead of solder to increase connectivity between the wire and housing and give more surface area for the housing to “bite” the wire.
I assume you meant the neutrik connector and yes unfortunately they are quite thin. The suggestion we were throwing out on our fb group was to expose a bit more a fold it. Seems to be an easy fix for ppl.
Just got my essentials kit and I am working on installing them now.
One thing that threw me off on in this video was the Micro SD card size requirements. Jono says you need at least "8gb" micro cards, but his manual says 2gb each. So, from I can tell, 2gb is enough.
good catch!
planning to get one set. probably the essential because of the hose issue with the stock unit. is there a different powercell bracket if i'm gonna be using a 6000mah battery?
I noticed that there was barely any sound coming from my neutrona wand so I opened it up cut and striped the yellow wires for the speaker so that they would be a cleaner (de-soldering left them warped and messy) and possibly have a better connection, now there's no sound from the wand at all. What did I do wrong?
Update: I got the sound working again but it's still very quiet.
Don't ask me what I did, I took a break after being up for 24 hours and when I woke it was working.
Can you just add the pack board and reconnect all the stock wires? Can I also keep the stock speaker since I soldered an aux cable to it and have it connected to external speakers? I've heard the ninjatunes board is not compliant with this. I also have a Talentcell installed to power the board.
Would magnets for holding the wand to the pack or magnets to allow for hot swappable external parts cause any damage to these internals?
i haven't tried myself so im not sure
Are the screws that you used to mount the speaker support kit onto the pack included with the support kit or was it originally taken out from the pack?
originally taken out from the pack
I’m getting some feed back from the speakers when I switch on the new power pack.
Any advice or thoughts?
Yes you most likely need a ground loop isolator: www.amazon.com/dp/B076WKDH46
how loud is the feedback?
Not much, it’s a high pitched squeal when the power pack is switched on.
I asked the question before looking on your website and found the ground connection. I already ordered it.
Thanks
@jonogunn I am also getting loud feedback from the speakers, so I bought the ground loop isolator and it dose eliminate the feedback but makes the sound it self sound fuzzy and low. Any idea what could be? Maybe it's the aux cable?
do you have a comparison video by any chance?@@flyingnimbus86
i'm building a 3d printed frozen empire pack and plan to use a spengler wand. would this kit work for lights, sounds
yup! we plan to make one specifically for custom packs but at it's core it'll be the exact same. you using a hasbro wand makes it even easier if you wish to do it now. look into our ultimate bundle kit. it'll include all the leds you will need for the pack
Will you be releasing more of these kits for sale? Or was it a one and done
We have been selling these ongoing. Again please check sonofagunnprops.com. If you are outside North America then go to gpstartechnologies.com
Can you use this mod without a pack?
How about instead of destructive removal you use a soldering iron to remove the parts which is the proper way to do it. Just a thought. You should give proper instructions instead of destructive instructions in case someone breaks the board accidentally because I am sure you won't be replacing them for following your instructions.
to which part are you referring to?
Oh man, installing the screws at an angle at the bottom of the pack (~31:40) is... That kinda hurts my soul. I get that the connectors dont fit the molded pack and stuff, which is an issue on Hasbro's end (not yours), but still... Material fatigue is a bit of a bitch when it happens. Wish there were a better way of doing that...
yah the only other way i can think of is to drill the holes yourself. but if it helps it's been REALLy solid. no issues at all and never had any custromers complain either
When I try to format the mini sd card I can do fat32 instead of fat, correct? (I'm assuming so but want to be sure; the file system options give me FAT and FAT32 and when I do FAT it only gives me 64 as an option)
Yes fat32 is correct
What kind of aux cable are you using for the Amp and board?
just a standard 3.5mm audio jack.
hey, i dont have the after life pack. am i able to still use that battery connecter for my wand or do i have to take it out?
can you expand on what set up you have? so you don't have the haslab pack but you have the hasbro wand? and you are using a custom pack? is my understanding correct?
@@jonogunn yes, i have a fullscale spirit halloween proton pack with the spengler neutrona wand connected to it. hope that makes sense!
gotcha. if you buy our kit you would have to take out that battery connector and connect a talentcell battery to the pack end. the talentcell will power everything @@ghostbustersfan9537
I got the essential kit installed in both the wand and the pack. Everything works but the volume in my wand is very very quiet now. Anybody run into this before?
By default the volume controls both pack and wand volume. Is your volume turned down? Other than that if u r using stock wand speaker double check the connections?
@@jonogunn yeah, it doesn't seem like the volume on the gun is controlling the actual volume. I will double check things.
@@BigDemolitiondid you ever figure it out cause I'm having the same problem.
Unfortuantely, I did not. The volume in my wand is still very low. I also cannot control the volume from the wand properly.@@tapmem
@@jonogunnany suggestions on a speaker that is not only compatible but will fit with this kit? I've already checked the connections several times and even cut and striped the speaker wires in hopes that I might get a better connection (soldering left the wires slightly warped). I've tried re wiring the speaker 3 times now, at this point I may as well try replacing the speaker entirely..
Can you write what the basic kit offers? Like if the two boards are purchased
if you are asking what features this kit offers please visit sonofagunnprops.com for more details or join our fb group (link in description) on what this kit offers. if you are referring to the "bare basics kit" in the video it's not that much different. mainly the hose stuff is not included and some extra soldering is involved
What kind of amp is that & where can I get one?
please visit our website. link is there
Where can I get a simpler mod kit?
we are thinking about a "lite" version of this kit
Can this be used in max factory shell kits?
yes. stay tuned for our "custom packs" version coming out very soon!
How soon is that coming out is there an estimated time frame?
@@DawnGDDC soon is all i got. a month or 2?
@@jonogunnlooking forward to purchasing it!
📦
Wish you had shown how to remove the vent cover in this video 😢. lol
check out the bargraph video i think i walkthrough at least some of the process. it doesn't make sense to show it in this video because it has nothing to do with it
@@jonogunn thank you so much. The essential kit is awesome and I would love to get it but it’s a little too complex for me. I don’t want the inner cyclotron workings. Just the 84-89 sound and light features ( Booting/powering up sounds) 89 boot up and firing sound and button activation, clockwise and counter clockwise cyclotron, 28 bar graph, 15 led power cell. Speakers. Not sure if you need the essential for only those features. Can I just buy the boards?
Based on your responses and questions to my videos I’d say it’s safe to presume you are a beginner at this? Then no, it would be best to get the essential kit and speaker support kit along with the required parts you have to get on your own.
The boards alone are more for DIY people who wish to purchase all the other stuff that’s needed on their own or have their own different set up.
For you:
But the required components not included: speakers, amp, sd cards, ground loop isolator (check my website)
Then purchase from us:
Essential kit
Speaker support kit
Then you mentioned you want the 28bargraph and 15 led powercell.
You can buy these from fruttotechnology.com
@@jonogunn thank you for all your replies. Yea I’ll get the essential. I figured the boards alone would require a lot more sourcing of individual parts.
Are the wav trigger boards blue now? Just checking
Yes. I will be updating the written instructions to reflect it but I’m unable to update the video at this time. It’s essentially the same process tho
