Damn is that board fast.

The good news is that it worked great. The bad news is that, well, it worked too good. With my low-rise twister feed, my 12-volt hopper is now way too slow. My gun might as well have been a blender this weekend, it was chopping so much paint. With the eye on, there was no chopping, but ever fourth or fifth shot, my marker wouldn't fire because I had to wait for my hopper to catch up.

I guess I got to go to the Halo or the Egg. I'm leaning toward the egg, unless someone's got a good reason why I shouldn't.

I'll attach pictures of my baby.

Very nice man.

if you want to go for hopper looks then go halo b

if you want to go for hopper weight then go egg2

both are very nice hoppers, i personaly like the halo b.

another thing that an egg is better not only weight but the fact it holds about 40 more balls than a halo b and is like 40 bux cheaper.....and it looks like an egg.

I hear both are just as fast and the egg goes for $70 or so and the halo is 100+. So I'm thinking the egg. And you're right, I noticed that the halo doesn't hold as many paintballs.

well my gun had the same problem today i seriously would recommend a halo i had to buy a halo a for $50 today just so i could shoot 20 times before id chop(at the end of the day i descided to dump my hopper and i chopped so much that the paint was litterally pouring out in massive globs) i never knew it was possible to outshoot any halo lol :eek:

What do you mean the color may screw with the vision eye? I'm thinking of getting the clear body for the egg. Are there any issues with that?

why would vision have problems seeing your hopper it sees the balls not the hopper so why would there be a problem

Really, what problems? I'm not getting a halo, but I was just wondering. Purely out of curiousity.
