Increase the sensitivity of your pad with these conductive adhesive copper strips!

It's an upgraded version of the “penny mod”. Custom engineered and laser cut 3.75" x 1" copper strips with highly conductive adhesive backing. These copper inserts are designed to work perfectly with all L-TEK pads.

They decrease the distance between the metal sensors creating an ultra-sensitive pad. Backed with industrial strength conductive adhesive infused with silver. Just peel off the sticker like backing to reveal the adhesive. Then stick this to your pad the same way you would the “penny mod”. No longer will you have to worry about holding the pennies in place and having them slip when you play or move the pad.

Increase connectivity and decrease the distance the steel panels must travel to register a step on the pad. Easy to install, these copper inserts are meant to be permanent, but they can also be removed. This mod is compatible with all L-TEK pads.

Choose from Partial Mod (4 pieces), Partial Mod (8 pieces), Full Mod (16 pieces) or PIU Full Mod (20 pieces)

For the best experience you will need the Full Mod. With this mod you get 16 pieces in total, 4 for each arrow panel, one for each edge. If you prefer to just step on the inner part of each panel you can get the partial mod. The partial mod comes with 4 pieces, one for the inside edge of each arrow panel.

The PIU Full Mod is available for the PIU EX PRO. With this mod you get 20 pieces in total, 4 for each panel on the Pump It Up pad. 

This is a larger version of our L-TEK Sensitivity "Penny" Mod

    So far pretty good

    Still breaking them in. Some shorted contacts where stomping on buttons to correct things is required; occasional ghost hits. That said, pad location is a challenge (wavy, slightly slick basement floor), so overall performance is impressive.

    Shipping, packaging, installation, etc. all top notch.

    Makes L-Tek very usable!

    If anyone tells you LTek is usable outside of the box, don’t trust them. That’s only true if your form is poor and you step very wide. The pad will cause long-term bad habits of not stepping on the inside of the panel.

    This product modded my L-Tek from literally unplayable with typical arcade form, to VERY playable for home practice. The 4x partial mod on inside of sensors only worked great. Thank you DDRPad!

    Best mod so far

    Brought the sensitivity up. If you can play ddr 15s, you have to do this. There are dead zones on the pad. I can now hit closer to the center with my finger with this mod. It is about an inch off the center pad and it works well! I’m
