Here is some stuff Me and my brother did to make a [Proton Pack](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/proton-pack) for $100. A lot of dollar store stuff and foam. You can also see how I did a lot of this at my forum "My inexpensive Proton Pack for $100 me and my brother made… Here > **[My Inexpensive $100 Proton Pack me and my brother made...](https://forum.gbfans.com/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=16449)** > > This is my inexpensive $100 Proton Pack. I got a lot of wonderful Ideas from all you wonderful people on this website. I really got a lot of dollar store ideas from “The Dollar Store Proton pack” Thanks again to everyone. You all made a life long... You can view all my post about inexpensive props here… > **[GBFans.com](https://forum.gbfans.com/search.php?search_id=egosearch)** Thanks A cool idea I used was to use 4 blinking jacolantern from the dollar store and take them apart and fasten them to the inside of your cyclatron like this. ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/0/8/0881c2283015cd66cfcd6a9d6ef26ffb4a0468f6.jpeg) ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/b/0/b0dbbd903ed4b8a001bae0a7284af1909d7b88f2.jpeg) I also put velcro under the pan so it was easily removable and I could change batteries. I also used a clear red flexable 3 ring binder that was clear and red for the red color. I cut the folder with scissors to get it to the right size. ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/1/0/10963e07ff1dc8552f63b906231dc91ba287adfb.jpeg) ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/3/d/3d2a0c4d9e1f21e48d4cf87dd18e802d4a63deb6.jpeg) ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/7/6/76733762720e61019d0b6ee648a33abb73f050bc.jpeg) They all blink in random order so if you turn all switches right after the other, they are random, but blink all around, kinda like the movie. The closest I could find for $4. I also Used a strobe light from walmart as my blue cell light. ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/7/c/7c3d44ddff4ff8ac263d44442b2d739efd2b5240.jpeg) ![image](https://discdn.gbfans.com/original/3X/3/7/373fe7fc1a41df9c82c35aadf80fead4bfa292a5.jpeg) You can also see how I did a lot of this at my forum "My inexpensive Proton Pack for $100 me and my brother made… Here > **[My Inexpensive $100 Proton Pack me and my brother made...](https://forum.gbfans.com/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=16449)** > > This is my inexpensive $100 Proton Pack.
