Why don't people change the Stern coils out to another version made by another manufacturer ? Instead of the cheap single windings ?
Could someone like TimeZone do that and get a lot more use before maintainence.

What about the Pop bumpers going weak ? Same issue.
Again, could u change out the parts for others with more oomph ? It seems like the most sensible answer ?
Has anyone done that to a Stern or are u stuck using the Stern single wind coils ??

It isn't just the coil it is all of the driver electronics that goes with it - the savings would have been considerable for Stern when they did away with all of this (in the DE days)
