Comments on Noctis' Review

Noctis Sunday, April 27th, 2008 Period of Product Use: Less than a month Paintball Experience: 1 year Similar Products Used: Ultimate Fusion Designs Coiled Remote w/Slide Check Marker Setup: (MAIN) Tippmann 98 Custom Flatline barrel; Commando Stock; Cyclone Feed Adapter; Double Trigger Kit, 32 Degrees Coiled Remote w/ Slide Check (Secondary) Tippmann 98 Custom Platinum Edition ACT (digital woodland camo) Smartparts Progressive Barrel; Cyclone Feed Adapter; Double Trigger Kit; Response Trigger Kit; Ultimate Fusion Designs Coiled Remote w/ Slide Check Strengths: Same as any other remote, takes the weight of the tank off the gun. Weaknesses: Big orange valve handle, valve handle screws completely out of the ASA Review: This remote is decent in that it does its job, but the problem is in the ASA valve. I'ma gonna skip my whole Good, Bad, and the Ugly routine here... The ASA valve handle is big and orange...dumb...remotes are most often used by scenario players, there is a reason why road cones are colored the way there are colored. The ASA valve handle can be completely rmoved from the ASA...not really sure what purpose that can serve. If you screw the valve all the way you seal the tank and you lose pressure after the air that got in the hose is spent (about 2-3 shots) Conclusion: Its ok i guess, but has a couple of design flaws...spraypaint the handle, I did... Rating: 4 out of 10

Chad Kapps Monday, April 28th, 2008 | 4:50 pm PST Noctis, I was wondering how does the remote fit on your gun or an a-5 because on the picture it looks like the end is just a quick connect so how do you screw it on your gun, doesn't it need a black piece for it?
