My Repeaters have a new home: MidwestGadgets.org

[Hamspiced]

Hey Everyone.

For those that are not DT Club Members (shame), i posted this there first but i have created a website.

I will still keep my tindie shop open but all new products and items are going to the newly launched:

Midwest Gadgets LLC| NFC

I have spent a lot of time polishing this up after lots of setbacks (photographer ran off with my money and some stock). But i am open to any and all feedback regarding the site.

I have launched the 13.56mhz Field Generators on it in both versions the normal and coin shape. Although the DT club members pretty much rolled through the normal version i have to order more.

I also have up stickers, patches, etc.

For all DT forum members there is a standing discount code that will apply OVER any running sitewide sales (like black friday hint hint).

Just use the terribly hard to remember code:

Pilgrimsmaster

at checkout.

I have quite a few new products that will be launching in the coming weeks so keep your eye out on this thread. I wont make new threads and the product announcements will likely get buried but i dont intend on spamming the forum about every little thing.

Thankyou all for your support and encouragement as i have built this and the products i sell through your encouraging messages and overall the amazing knowledge everyone here has provided me with. I apprecaite being a part of this community and im glad @amal created a place we can talk about stabbing ourselves.

This is so exciting!
Thank you for all of your hard work and dedication to the community!

After many many requests, we now have the V3 Flex repeaters available in the super sexy Stealth Black option. Darker than my sense of humor and as black as my wifes heart.

Awesome work! Happy to chat if you’d like them stocked over this way.

The new V3 design looks wicked.

@Hamspiced is it possible to put one of these field generators inside a computer mouse so that it gets its power from the computer and light up the LEDs in the hand?

[Hamspiced]

Yes?

So there is some modifications that would be required. the mouse would need to be able to fit the field generator inside. you would need to remove the button cell holder and solder a direct line from the mouse’s 5v line and Ground to the coin-cell Holder Pads. Then you would need to remove the momentary switch and solder a jumper between the 2 pads of the switch to make sure it is always powered. then as long as it is positioned right you should be able to light up the xsiid or xled.

This i would consider an advanced mod and will take some time to do. If i were you i would look at this thread:

[Project] 13.56mhz field generator

You win! Powered by a Cr2032, its a compact field generator. For those that want to build one at home you can use one of my v2.1s repeaters as the antenna. [PXL_20240809_220046269.MP]

this is where i post and document my schematics for the field detectors. I can supply you with a PCB antenna so you could build something similar yourself.

[Hamspiced]

Also for Black Friday there is a sitewide discount of 40% applied to every product!

[mminaei]

Thank you very much. The mods you mentioned are beyond my capabilities but I’m glad that there is a way to do it. It would be cool to be able to light up four color leds in the back of the hand, something similar to infinity stones of thanos.

[Hamspiced]

Right now my field generators are not “that” strong to be able to go through a whole hand. but i hope with some modifications i can get there.

I am working on a DIY module to make this a bit easier for people to experiment and play around with though!

What’s the max Voltage you can put through it (what’s it rated to, not expecting you to ghost smoke one)

[Hamspiced]

ive personally ran 12v through it for short periods of time. But it is currently raded to 3v. Most of the components are technically good for 50v but i wouldnt trust that.

CURRENTLY only the reccomended 3v has been tested to be safe with implants such as the xLed and xSiid.

Oh, so we should do more testing?

[Hamspiced]

I’m pretty sure you were testing at 5v.

I say 3v to stay safe…

[Hamspiced]

If anyone missed the potential 60% off for black Friday we’re gonna roll again for Cyber Monday.

I’m also trying to keep an eye out for discount codes and throwing some extras in when I see it roll through.

If you arent a member of DT Club, remember you miss out on the fun announcements first that get posted there.

New Product Release

After delay after delay and untimely holdup, I would like to announce MWG has a new accessory for your Proxmark3 Easy and Proxmark3x.

Field Enhancers!

They come in 2 options and each option has 2 silkscreens.

Option 1: Midboard Replacement

This is a rather direct replacement of the PM3 Midboard. The front silkscreen has the Midwest Gadgets Logo (Which will be covered by the LF antenna) and a plain looking HF Zone. The backside has Instructions for presenting your implant (which will be covered by the LF antenna) and outlines of the implants and the reccomended placement on the PM3 for best coupling.

The midboard replacement comes with the Midboard, and 4 spacers. The nylon spacers can be attached above or below the midboard, it is your prefference.

Option 2: Back-Plane Add-on

The backplane can be added directly to the back of the PM3 Easy and allows for full use of the HF field for proper coupling of implants or resting cards on. It will include 4 brass standoffs for attachment and the Back-plane.

The Back-Plane board is perfect for those that have the PM3X where the midboard is populated with components for bluetooth and standalone reads.

Build-Guides and instructions are available Here

The site is now live with the Field Enhancers so please feel free to let me know your opinions of them. Remember this is a V1 product so they will likely evolve as i have time to evolve them.

Note
There are variants of the Proxmark 3 Easy that are NOT compatible with the field enhancers. The best way to identify incompatible devices is by looking at the midboard itself.

If the “Power” label is Above the right screw post, these boards will not work, neither will a back-plane board. The screw holes just do not match up.

I was attempting to be sneaky with this release, @Pilgrimsmaster was going to do a full review and we were going to release in tandem, however Customs held up the units for a week, and then when Pilgrim received his board we found out that he has one of the Variant Proxmark3’s that this will not work on. HOWEVER. if you purchased your Proxmark 3 Easy from Dangerous Things then you have nothing to worry about. Both units will work on your device just fine.

Anyways as always, i thank the community for allowing me to put out products like this, big thanks to Tac0s for some design pointers in the silkscreening as well as the images for the Implant styles. Massive thankyou to @amal for allowing me to borrow a Proxmark3 so i can ensure the midboard would work. This originally was just going to be a Backplane because my PM3x has a completely populated midboard.

Anyways, dont forget to use the special coupon code!
