PROS
First of all let me get this out of the way.... this hopper is great!! When i got it i was rather exited that it was sound activated because when you are playing woods ball it doesn't help to have a little motor running all the time giving your position away, plus it doesn't annoy the _ _ _ _ out of me. when i turned it on full auto it performed great on 13 bps... too bad i ran out of paint before i could turn the bps up (i will update this when i get more paint). The next thing i am going to talk about is the lid. this lid is so awesome! It has two magnets on the end sides to hold the lid down and one in the back in place of where a spring would go. i filled the hopper up to its full amount (210) and turned it upside down so that the lid was on the bottom and it didn't come off so that is a good sign.
CONS
The only real con is that you have to sand it down just to fit it in your feed neck. When i was playing speed ball it fell out 2 times but that is because of my poor sanding and that i didn't sand far enough up so that it would hold in place better. the only other bad thing i noticed was that i had a broken ball under the paddle. Now i am just guessing but i think it was because i had a ball stuck between the bolt and the feed neck but like i said before that is just a guess.
Conclusion:
This is a great hopper like i said before. but the only thing that brings the rating from a 10 to a 9 is that one jam and that you have to sand it down but other than that it has performed perfectly.
PS. do not buy this hopper if you do not have an easy way to sand it down... sand paper will not work unless you have a good 20 hours to kill.
