Home | gpstar's Haslab Pack Kit

No soldering is required. Ideal project for those new to prop building

The Pack board is 100% plug and play and uses all the stock connectors, lights, etc. You can use the stock, unmodified Hasbro Wand with just a Pack only board. However you will not have any Pack/Wand communication. You will be able to still add on the inner Cyclotron & Panel LED kit!
The Wand board requires minor modifications to the wand to get inside and to desolder existing wires from the original board to reuse on the Wand board. However, if soldering is not your thing, don't worry! We designed it to be user friendly by simply clipping the wires off!
Upgrading the Wand requires a new hose connector (included with the wand kit).

Words cannot describe...
so let us show you first!

This kit is best articulated in live action. Check our these videos for the most accurate demonstration!

Unique Features 1

Utilizing Polyphonic technology from The Wav Trigger audio device, this kit can play and mix up to 14 stereo tracks simultaneously and independently.
Example:

Your Pack boots up and the idle sound effects overlay/transition smoothly.
You boot up the Wand via the 3 toggle sequence accurate to the Afterlife movie and notice each unique toggle effect that is played is layered on top of each other.
You Fire! While blasting away with the Proton stream you can still hear all the layers of sound effects that came before...the Pack effects, each Wand toggle effect, etc.
Oh and let's not forget music mode. Yes while your Pack is rocking out tracks from your favourite Ghostbuster scenes you can still operate your Proton Pack with all of it's accompanying sound effects independently and once again layered on top of the music
You may also notice during all this that the transitions between sound effects are smoothly layered with no janky transitions.

Play 14 tracks simultaneously and independantly

Buttery smooth transitions

No jankiness

Other Required Components

Not included

Speaker & amp combination or bluetooth speaker.
- The stock Proton Pack speaker and volume rotary encoder are soldered to the stock board and will be removed along with the board. We will provide a new rotary encoder that plugs into the board but a new speaker system is required.
- There are many options out and it's really up to you.
  - A pair of 3" 15w speakers & 15w Class D stereo amp and it's enough to Pack a punch.
  - Many others out there prefer using a bluetooth speaker and JBL seems to be a popular choice. You can also use the stock speaker. This will be left up entirely to the user. The Wav Trigger audio boards have a AUX stereo output cable port and also an on-board mono amplifier which is rated for 2W @ 4Ω or 1W @ 8Ω. The recommended setting is using the AUX stereo output for the Proton Pack to a stereo amplifier and using the onboard amplifier for the Neutrona Wand while reusing the stock Wand speaker.
2 MicroSD cards are required, 1 for each Wav Trigger.
Power requirements:
- A regulated 5V is required to power the system with up to 2 amps is recommended.
- The TalentCell Rechargeable 3000mAh 12V/5V battery Pack is recommended as it has input connections to output both 5v and 12v without modifications/added components needed. The 12V/5V TalentCell can be useful if you decide to use a 12V amp for your Proton Pack audio. However any other battery can work as long as it meets the power requirements indicated.
