Thread: Floor Model Dead Lift Zombie Wiring Help

Tweet

Hello All,
Sunday after Halloween i went to our local Spirit Halloween Store to see what there was left over and i found this Animated Dead Lift Zombie (See Spirit Halloweens website) that was the floor model and was 70% off. It came with the body with two wires leading out. One is obviously power and the other most likely the switch. I can post pictures in my 2nd post if need be. I'm looking for anyone who knows the correct DC Volts and the wiring of the switch. I would image all of their floor models are the same so anyone who has bought something like it or has the actual model please help me out.

Thanks,
Rob

I got one too and was wondering how to find out how to check that. Do you know anything about electronics? I might have the tools to find out but I don't know how to use them. What are you planning on doing with him?

Rob,

It takes two wires to provide power, a plus and a minus.

see if it has a dc jack on it somewhere that will tell sometimes tell you the voltage and current.

If you can find the jack, and get a power supply that will work, the two wires hanging out are probably a trigger - hook them together to momentarily to activate the prop.

Whats the voltage and current on these props? My guess is probably 12VDC but it varies and it cant draw no more then an amp. Can anyone confirm this?
The switch is a 3 wire switch, so if anyone has a hold of a switch could you provide me with the pin out. I don't recall their being a light in the push button on display but i could be wrong.

Thanks
