I ordered a TKO impulse a month ago and I called the place I ordered it from yesterday and they said to call back in two weeks. I am getting pretty upset about and thinking about canceling the order. If I cancel the order I will probably get a RAT Impulse. Should I get a RAT w/ vision and run a 12 revvy w/ a X-board or get a regular RAT and run a HALO or get a normal RAT and run the 12 volt w/ a X-board? I already have the 12 volt w/ X-board or should I just wait two or three more weeks for the TKO? How long is the wait on a RAT?

yhea I think I am going to get the RAT but I don't know how I should feed it to keep from chopping. I also need my new gun by March 10 at the latest. I have a tournament then and would like to practice with my new gun for at least a week or two before the tourney.
The new SP Halo hoppers are super. We han a little test to see how good they were (they seem very fast).
We put one full tube (guppie) of paint in the loader and times how long it took to empty the hopper. Severl runs gave us a constient "under 5 sec" (4.8 sec). did the same thing with a X borard 12 V revy. On the revy, if we didn't count the 3-4 balls that always hopped around in the hopper at the end. we gut just under 10 sec. YES-- twice as fast!
Most of you know how I warn against using a low rise on an Impulse. We you can use a olw rise on the Impulse with a SP Halo and it will give you better feed rates then a rev on a high rise!.
Of course id you play front -- or play the type of games where your hopper is not directly above the gun-- The Halo is not going to help you here. Only VISION will help in low feed times.
