Yahtzee Flux Capacitor Help Needed

[CriticalB]

I have one of these and if I recall correctly it barely takes any motion at all to activate it. There are several free interval timer apps that you can customize to vibrate every X seconds. Maybe you could install one on an old phone and put it in the back of the device where the game pieces are stored.

Depending on how involved you want to get, you could solder up a cheap relay timer. Not sure if this one is any good, but it is super cheap at $2. The idea being that you power this board (maybe from a separate battery?) and it counts a time interval for you, after which it closes the circuit to trigger the yahtzee switch.

Although I'd rather have a Diamond Select, I am working with this Yahtzee Flux Capacitor. This was a sealed unit that I opened and tried out to install in my car, and to my surprise I found that this apparently only lights when the unit is shaken and repeats in a series of 7 blinks then stops until it is shaken again. I can hear a sort of inertia switch inside it that activates it but don't know what part operates that function. Does anyone know how I can rig this to keep blinking constantly when turned on?

I am laughing at myself. I have one of these in the garage. I thought it was broken because it would never light up. I never thought to shake it.

nice thread, I was in search of another of these mini flux when I came here.

I've had one of these here for quite a while and now I played with PIC controllers, made a
little program to make it flux continously.

It needs some soldering skills to replace the chip...if interested PM me.

Hello,
I bought too the Yahtzee Flux capacitor and it's a gret product.
But I would like tu use it continously.

I sent you a PM elvis in order to know if you have a solution

I have a small one that fits into the lighter socket. When someone notices it is smaller than the one in the movie I just tell them that in the future we have figured out how to make them smaller and more powerful.

My son in law gave me a phone charger with one. It plugs in like yours. (Maybe the same thing) I only plug it in at car shows. I’m going to steal your line.

When my flux capacitor went i bought this kit.
