    Default simple ball counter

    easy to make, no moving parts, counters available on ebay. NOTE:make sure your counter is resettable.
    i made a small prototype out of 1/2 pvc connected to a funnel. just cut a slot for a small piece of spring steel to slip in and turn along the flow of the balls. on the opposite side i used a small brass bolt that i filed the head down to a shallow crown. ran 24v to large strip and output from the bolt to the counter. it worked great!! remember you need 24v DC not the the 24v ac coming from the transformer so you must add a full wave bridge rectifier to the output of your transformer.
