| Review: |
I got a TSA Backman LCD for Xmas and tried it out this weekend. It's MUCH better than my 12v Revy with X-board. I would always chop a few balls in a day/case, I think that sometimes the ball to eye alignment wasn't the best due to ball sizes. The TSA feeds every shot. With the LCD I could adjust the sensitivity, rotation time, and tell it if I have an open or closed bolt gun. The Backman holds 210+ which let me carry 1 or 2 less pods on the field. The tilt sensor is great too, I could come out a bunker nearly horizontal and still get good feeds, try that with a Revy or Egg, and you'll get air not paint. Size it is just a little larger than the Revy, but because of it's angular shape I did get a few deflections when my hopper was hit. |

| Conclusion: |
Excellent hopper. For a few bucks more than a Revy you get a Much better hopper. |
