Hi All

So I wanted to buy one of those talking timers by Radio Shack to put on the back of my mask. I play back, I shoot a shocker and was wondering the best way of keeping track of time?

your idea sounds good

well, like most back players, if you constantly shoot 10 balls per second, every 600 paintballs you go through means 1 minute has passed ;)

LOL

No kidding. My problem is that this talking timer is discontinued and I cannot find one anywhere.


Someone got a link for the timer/ grip thing that can fit a shocker?

if u wanna go speed collar ness (Which i love, if they only made them for ricochets)... they hav timers for them

the timer grips look nice

and what i thougth of, kind crazy, but get one of those little lcd screens that can hookup to a timer, and place it on a bottom side of ur lense, with the rest outa view so it doesnt take up 2 much or ur space. i donno if it's totaly possible, but sounds like a good idea.

also, you can but a JT Speed timer (for the collars), and u can superglue it to ur hopper lid if u wanna.

take the wristband off a timex watch and super glue it to the inside of your lense;)
would that weaken the plastic?

why not just wear an old watch and glance at it periodically?


But a heads up display type thing inside your mask would be cool :)

No. Heads up display like in an F-15.
"Target at 2 oclock, range 20yds" says the HUD (heads up display)
"Time Check" you command
"5 min left in game" HUD replys
"Firing at enemy/opponent" You order
You pull trigger
"Enemy eliminated" says the HUD buillt into your 22nd century futuristic paintball mask

Actually it wouldn't be that hard to put a HUD in a paintball mask that just told time. You'd just have to carry around a small pack that contained the timer and power pack.
