A-5 with Scepter Grenade Launcher & APP 330 round hopper
Ion with 12V Viewloader
Strengths:
Loads your hopper in one arm movement
Weaknesses:
Limited to only one electroic hopper & one gravity hopper
Review:
I already purchased 2 of these collars since both my woodsball and speedball setups are based on the JT Slammer system (speedpod/speed collar).
The speed collar is meant to be placed only on the Viewloader 12V or the VL200. Those 2 hoppers have the lip size and screw locations that are compatiable with the collar. You just have to drill a 1/8 hole for the mounting screw to fit. Performance wise, it load FAST and flawlessly. Mine has not jammed with the 12V yet. I removed the cover since the internal teeth prevents the balls from comming out.
The collar does not fit easily on all other hoppers without modification. You can forget about using an "egg" hopper for obvious reasons. I was able to get it on a APP 330 round hopper with a couple of new holes and some zip-ties. It works, but has a tendency to jam if you try to overfill it. When it jams, it can be a pain to get out. I even delayed the start of a game for a few minutes trying to get my pod off the collar (cool refferees at the field)
Conclusion:
It will load fast, but you are limited by what hoppers you can use.
