    A missed opportunity with the meter is fully controllable arms. The one that was operated in the movie by Harold Ramis could be manipulated to make the arms go up and down and the lights slower and faster at will. It'd be a pretty easy and inexpensive feature to include. Still, can't complain. It is amazing that we are even getting these toys at all.

    I keep trying to remember what the Spirit and Imagine by Rubie’s props looked like out of the box, since I modded mine.

    • @ebwarg
      @ebwarg Před 3 lety +1

      The stickers on the right side of the Trap are the same as the Spirit model, although the red one should be on the back, partially covering the speaker opening, and the white one (though Spirit-accurate) is larger than its screen counterpart.

    I'd like a PKE meter with a button or a slider that shows it detects a ghost, better option then just repeating the same sequence over and over. Also, a ghost trap with a good foot pedal that opens and closes the trap with a long cord would be great.

    I bought a PKE meter but whenever the arms close they dont stop trying to close. It just stays on and you can hear the gears grinding.
    There is a button on the inside of the arms that the arms click when they shut, but the arms are not strong enough to push it so it just stays on.
