This trap was sold for $240,000. It is marketed as being used in GB1 and GB2.
I'm interested in where in GB1 this trap was used. Does anyone know?
Hero traps used in GB1 seem to have:
-A central bolt on the back of the battery box
-The Linrose red light close to the metal switch and the switch and light being in line
-Sunken (recessed) Wamco bargraph (swapped out when retrofitted for GB2 to a raised/extruding bargraph)
-Small yellow led next to bargraph (swapped out for oversize model when retrofitted for GB2)
-Obviously Red bars (retrofitted for silver in GB2) and black right dial (retrofitted with silver dial in GB2)
-A black right hand Dsub connector on the pedal (propstore trap features the gray Dsub connector on the pedal which is from GB2)
Does anyone know what scene this trap sold by Propstore on the right of the image below (without the central bolt) is used in GB1?
