Ok, here it is

Today was the first day i tested my new impulse.At the beggining wasn't firing even i had a new battery (the green light on the back was clicking ok but it didnt even cycle)After i changed the battery it fired about 100 shots very incostitent and then stopped again cycling.I changed again the battery it shot again about 100 paintballs again very inconstitent and then stopped again.Now its like dead as many batteries i have changed.(the green light on the back still working but nothing else is happening)...oh a few hours ago the Max-flow started licking a great ammount of air.Is this a diferent problem or has something to do with the other?

P.S.How do you say it?Bad luck?

We need more details....

Has it ever worked?

Vision or not?

What was the operating pressure?

Did you try adjusting the Dwell? ( I believe you need to)

What is your air source, i.e. CO2 or HPA ?

Its a vision impulse.I tried to work it at 160-180 Psi.I didn't adjust the duel but i dont think thats the problem.I also use compressed air (68in,4500psi)

The Dwell will change based on air source,i.e. CO2 or HPA. It is also effected by upgrades, i.e. VFF, delrin bolt, etc. Lastly, I have seen that the Dwell needs to be adjusted slightly based on the season. I needed a slightly longer dwell once winter started.
