A competitor for the Morlock?

how much

[Milky Spore]

Read more, no price yet. ;)

[Zaunji]

No solonoid? What are you meant to mount your's or something?

[GrimAssasin]

god that thing is tiny!

[hurleyhonda22]

No solonoid? What are you meant to mount your's or something?

thats what I was wondering

[Milky Spore]

No solonoid? What are you meant to mount your's or something?

I believe so. It says it's universal for all electronic markers and will require some soldering skills.

[hurleyhonda22]

wont it also require milling skills?

[splatter effect]

wont it also require milling skills?

Judging by the size of the board actually i would say no.

[heysueskreesto2]

very nice.

so basically you can choose your solenoid as well :)

[-=SyLar=-]

hows that gonna fit in a shocker?

[edudcixlsyd]

meh nothing special

[Uziel Gal]

No reason why it couldn't be used in a Shocker.

You'd just have to remove the upper board from the solenoid, and connect the solenoid directly to the new board instead. Same goes for the eyes - you'd have to swap from the stock ribbon eye harness to the DM style eyes supplied with the board, and they would be connected directly to the new board. The microswitch would be loose, as it would only be held in by the two pins, but that doesn't mean that you can't do it (then again, if you want the extra security of a board sat behind the switch, just mount the switch on a chunk of PCB). The DM membrane pad would be used to turn the marker on and off and to control the eye function, so the loss of the upper boards power switch also wouldn't be an issue.

So, while the electronics would be very different to the stock arrangement, there's no reason why this couldn't be turned to use in a Shocker. You just need to scrap the upper board (without damaging your solenoid in the process.....).

[Tabris17]

It's Morlock board jr!

[black_angus1]

Hmm..very interesting...I wonder what they will set the price at...I bet it'll be expensive. It's either that or hella cheap. But most likely expensive.

[Uziel Gal]

It's Morlock board jr!

Pretty much.....

[Milky Spore]

hows that gonna fit in a shocker?

It fits in all electronic markers.

[xXBloodLustACXx]

I doubt it'll be expensive, keep in mind it's just a board, no noid attatched or anything so it should be cheaper to make I'd think.

I think that's pretty sweet, it's ideal for custom marker mods like putting on a new frame, since it saves a ton of space that you'd normally need to jam a board into.

[Milky Spore]

Or for a gun that you can't get boards for.

[paintballjames]

Wow that thing is tiny. I might have to pick one up if its not that expensive.

[Zaunji]

It really shouldn't be more then like $50. Like bloodlust said it doesn't have a noid. Which should make it around $40, but it does come with all the wires and stuff so I think it should be around $50. The normal Ion T-board (the one that's discontinued), was like $70(I think, or was it like $55?) with a solonoid and hoses ect... plus they make you solder and everything which should not make the price super high. You have to pay them extra for the "Installation service," if you can't solder well.. So I'm guessing that the price will be like $50 (maybe $55) then the fee for them to assemble it will be like $20.

wow i wouldnt trust myself to do that with out breaking something, i would have to bring it to a tech

and how do you change dwell on this?

[Uziel Gal]

Well, chances are that it won't have the audio feed back found on the Shocker and Nerve boards, and it certainly won't have an LCD screen.

Programming will most likely be done via trigger pulls, as is common with the majority of aftermarket boards, with an LED flashing to provide feedback.

I imagine thats how it will work. Itd be nice though if they made it so you put an LCD on it. Maybe in the next version?

[-=SyLar=-]

i dont think it will work with sft reflective eyes, it sounds like it will work fine with the nxt tho

[edudcixlsyd]

It's Morlock board jr!
except it's going to cost the same and has about 1/2 the modes the morlock has and the morlock supports dual solenoids

[Uziel Gal]

Modes are true enough, but it sounds like this board IS intended to support dual solenoids - after all, it states that it will support closed bolt markers, and that (almost) invariably requires the use of two solenoids.

The board should also support both break beam and reflective eyes, though possibly not the SFTs own eye harness. Probably be easier to solder on an E-Blade style reflective sensor.

[black_angus1]

If it's less than $50, I'm going to get one and some eyes as soon as I get money to spend.

[Shifter19]

i agree with black angus im getting one if they are under $50
but i dont get how it would fit in my Spyder
the Spyder Boards have screws to attach them to the frame, would this just sit in there?

[Uziel Gal]

You can just stick it where you want it - with double sided tape for instance. It's small enough that it shouldn't come loose in a hurry.

[paintballjames]

Has he set the price yet?

[senghing27]

I see no such price yet....

Alas... I can Electro-fit my phantom!!!!

[IronCorps]

Damon over at SD has a knack of selling his products at extremely reasonable prices, i would expect this product to be no different. And since this is just the first bit he's shown us, there may be more options to come, such as solenoids.

[Milky Spore]

Yeah, you just tape it to the frame. I'm sure that's how it is in all markers.

[paintballjames]

Alrighty just checked out the website. They are taking pre-orders now and its expected to me released mid-jan (any day now). Its $54 so pretty good for an aftermarket board.

i think they started taking preorders in November, and then it was said to be released mid-December. lots of delays on this thing.

[paintballjames]

yeah i know they kept on pushing the release date back.

[im lovin it]

yeah i know they kept on pushing the release date back.
like all universal boards it's just not going to hit the market.

[paintballjames]

It did. 2 weeks ago...

[Uziel Gal]

"All" would also suggest that there have been no universal boards available prior to the Scenario Dreams one, whereas the Predator Electronics Morlock and Mini Morlock boards have already been in existence for a long time, and been released in several versions at different times.

Certainly some universal boards have failed to make it to market, but not all of them.

[apbrendanw]

does it support 2 noids though

[paintballjames]

I believe it does. The site says it only isnt compatable with the Mini currently.

[xXBloodLustACXx]

I really want one of these, anybody know of anyone that's used one so far?

[paintballjames]

Nope. No one has written a review for it yet either.

[medvedev]

Why does anyone need this...
Its a big gimmick. It's just another board that isn't that useful. Why not just buy an aftermarket board made for your marker...everyone else does it.

[paintballjames]

Its cheaper than most marker specific aftermarket boards around but has the same features. The better question is why wouldnt you buy it...

[medvedev]

Well, I have an aftermarket that was built specifically for my marker, and I didn't have to solder anything(though I don't really mind)

[xXBloodLustACXx]

This is really intended for project markers and guns that don't have big companies like Tadao backing them with boards. It serves that purpose quite well.

Otherwise I agree, no sense in soldering all that stuff if you can just get a T-board or something made for your marker.

[Uziel Gal]

^^^
Exactly.

It is much easier to buy a marker specific board - of course it is. To have handy plugs for all your cables, to avoid soldering and avoid having a mass of wires. You also avoid having to find any parts that aren't included in the kit (for instance, the Predator Morlock, their Universal board, is supplied with a slide switch to turn it on and off, but that isn't going to drop straight in to that many markers without haveing to cut a slot for it first - much easier to use a push on/push off switch and drill a hole to mount that; sounds easy, but getting a switch of the exact dimensions you need to best fit your marker can be more tricky.....).

Problem is though, that not all markers are well represented in the aftermarket board arena. Older markers, markers that are very new, or have only sold in small numbers, custom builds, electronic conversions - Tadao, Virtue, Predator etc. aren't going to make a marker specific board unless it is going to sell in worthwhile numbers.

For all those markers that need a board, but for which mass producing a board isn't economically viable, you have the Universal board. You get all the features you would expect from an aftermarket board - you just have to put a little time and effort in to installing it first.

this thing rocks
