Review:
PROS
i heard all of the huge hype about this loader comming out and since my old halo broke i decided to try and find out and finnaly got one at my local pro shop. got it home and started shooting some paint through it right away. now my review might say its sooo awesome just because i have never had a reloader b so i am new to the empire hopper family. this hopper has the ability to change the settings for motor speed, microphone sensitivity and spring tension monitoring. this was waaay more advanced than my old halo. you will never have ball breaks because you can set the speed at which it feeds AND have spring tension monitoring on wich stops the motor from feeding if the pressure on the ball stack is too great. it also conserves battery power because you can set the microphone sensitivity lower so it wont waste batteries being at a higher setting. despite all you have heard it can feed as fast as a vlocity and just as fast as a normal reloader b
CONS
if you already have a reloader b the upgrade to a b2 IS NOT worth the extra money. the only thing that is better is the ability to adjust the settings, no matter how low the microphone setting it still always tries to feed when you open or close the lid because it mistakes it for the sound of your marker, when changing settings the power indicator flashes very quickly so it is hard to change the settings at first but you get used to it
Conclusion:
All in all, this is a great hopper, no better than the reloader b or vlocity but it has its pros
quote:Originally posted by The3terna1 a hopper will not makle your marker more accurate, or capable of shooting faster, it allows you to shoot faster, but does not enable you to.
he doesn't even say that it makes the gun shoot faster or more accurately in this review. And even if he did, it wouldn't be enough to dispute the review over.
