Billnuts Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 Got A delivery of a New Baytek Road Trip.. Background story.. The Game is a redemption Merchandiser similar to Keymaster Stackers, Barber Cut. It sells wholesale for around $5000.00 new and add $300.00 for mars DBA Plus shipping and tax This was on eBay for a bit.. Had a dent in the bottom from a forklift-pallet jack brand new unit just dented. Well, I made a really low offer and to my surprise they accepted. shipping was low at $160.00 So today it arrives via truck I inspect it and everything looks good. I uncrate the game, get the Windex and start cleaning.. I know its new but its got manufacturing dust and shipping dust. Overview Uses up to 2.3 inch capsules or 45-49 mm balls for first prize basically any 2 inch stuff. you can adjust the first prize from $.25 cent cost to $2.00 Second prize is set around $15.00 cost so I chose some movie and Starbucks, Applebee's gift cards you can adjust the second prize from $10.00 to $50.00 third prize is set at $150.00 And is adjustable from $15.00 to $400.00 cost Payout is adjustable % wise factory is set at 25% So, now for construction T handle locks with locking crossbars++ Cashbox Locks ++ Prize door is tempered glass with T handle lock with locking crossbars +++ Mainboard is a Simple micro Pc boots the software via 2gig memory stick... NO HARDRIVE TO GO BAD ++++++ makes it easy to do updates to software Standard PC power supply, Led rope lights LED monitor screen... just a PC monitor so easy to replace if bad Everything is easy to access and is easy to remove Storage Underneath for extra capsules and prizes Came with 500 bill count New mars DBA.. 4 wheel locking casters and moves like butter for a 550 LB machine.. Easy to program and comes with new decals, Price stickers and Great settings like 6 plays for $5.00 Cant beat the quality of the game. I did as I always do find one issue but it was GOOD/ bad... There is a optical sensor that detects where or what number the prize is right wheel Is on it uses cutouts on the edge of the wheel and just counts the notches its under the arrow. the seam for the wheel was on 25 miles.. in the middle of 25 miles so it went cutout seam cutout.. well where the seams met it was not very thick and you could see thru 1 layer. so it counted 25 twice every time it went around GOOD: the optical sensor is strong enough to test thickness LOL... Bad it could see the difference and count that as the next set of miles x how many rotations = way off miles on screen vs. wheel results. Easy fix was a small piece of electrical tape over the thin area.. I rate this Baytek game a 10/10 everything a operator would look for in a game to last and be easy to get parts.. and protect the prizes and the money. the only missing upgrade, which is cost prohibitive and would lead to new failures would be a locking solenoid on the T handle plunger same goes for Gravity hill cant tell you how many times I see unattended children with no money beat the crap out of my gravity hill handles... I expect the same with this plunger system But it looks armor tough and does disengage from the wheel when no money is inserted so all they get is to move the plunger up down.. the wheel does not move. nothing else happens .. until money is inserted bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Southernmusic2 Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 These are good earners and have yet to slack off for us. We have found keeping the medium prize around 10$ helps the play by them getting to the large prize easier. A ipad mini will fit in one and vend.

vendamania Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 I had no luck with Roadtrip's ... Had a few year's ago and got rid of them as fast as I bought them. If anyone is interested I have the more current prize merchandiser's for sale used at a very good price. Will be posted in classified's.
