Hello everyone! I'm new here but have been lurking these past few weeks. Now I have a major problem, I have over a half dozen animated props that I have bought in the past 2 years that are sound activated. They are really cool, but the problem is sound has to be extremely loud to activate them, sometimes even that is not enough, let alone the the simple subtle sounds of trick-or-treaters walking by. One of my props is from Spirit; the evil doll that sews her mouth shut, I also have a descending/rising glowing ghost skull, evil butler bobble head, talking dracula and grim reaper head, ect.
I've tried replacing the batteries, I'm tried playing moderately loud halloween cds nearby, tried holding down the the "demo button" with a clothes pin" but nothing seems to work. I also tried using a cheap cooking timer that makes a beep, but that didn't do it either. I would like for these things to go off every minute or so. I'm not very electric savvy. Any ideas or advice anyone?
