The Viewloader Force loader now brings force feed technology to bear in new price points, completely obsoleting agitating loaders. With force applied you can achieve faster out of the gate speed that allows you to get the critical shot in when you need it. This robust loader sets the new standard for the vast majority of players, offering speeds of up to 18 balls per second, a capacity of 200 paintballs, and the strength of the Viewloader name.
Loader Features
CONTINUOUS FORCE FEED�
18 BPS on marker feed rate
Jam free 6 blade force feed paddle
2 piece body design for easy cleaning and battery replacement
200 ball capacity
One 9 volt battery

| Review: |
I found this new loader in Dick's Sporting Goods and was curious about 18bps for $30. You do get what you pay for. The hopper unloads fast, but lacks any sort of activation, essentially making it a force-feed Quantum. Once the raceway and feedneck are full, the flexible impeller continues to spin and jostles balls around in the hopper. Fragile paint may turn this into a blender and the running motor makes a lot of noise. As with the Quantum, players will likely find themselves deactivating the loader between engagements. There are far superior force-feed loaders at sub-$100 prices, including VL's eVLution 3 ($60) and the upcoming Eye-Force ($70). |
|
| Conclusion: |
VL delivers force-feed for the price of an agitator, but the lack of any activation severely limits this loader's effectiveness. Eyes would be a fantastic idea for this loader - So wait for the Eye-Force instead. |

| Review: |
+++PROS+++
good feed rate- does 18 bps, can keep up with a lot of guns, so this will keep up with you
cheap- only 30 bucks, does 18 bps
holds 200 balls- dont have to reload as much, or as quick in beginning of game
- - -CONS- - -
loud- gets really annoying in the game, i turn it off because it annoys me so much
battery eater- you will only get a few games in, then youll have to change it
ugly- no big deal for the performance, but everyone says it is ugliest hopper they have seen, i dont think its that bad |
|
| Conclusion: |
Viewloader was close with this one, i wouldve easily paid 10 more dollars for something quieter
if you are strapped for cash, get this, good hopper to start out with |

| Review: |
Well, i bought this w/o doing any research first. I am disappointed w/ it because it just keeps trying to force the paint balls into the gun even when you don't want them to. It's kind of like the VL Quantum, as it never stops churning the balls, and i feel like i have to turn it off at some points during a game.
This is an alright hopper for the $30 that it costs, but i would recommend going for the one w/ eyes if you want it to turn off between shots and such.
I was disappointed in this, as i am a woodsballer, and sometimes there is a wait before the game gets going or if you want to sneak up on someone, you're screwed, because the loader stays on after you turn it on. I am happy to say that I'm returning this tomorrow and getting an eggy 3, which also shoots faster than this.
KEY FACTS IF YOU ARE BUYING THIS HOPPER:
1.) doesn't break paint inside of it unless it's incredibly cheap or old
2.) feeds at a max of 18 BPS
3.) bulky
4.) Takes 1 9V battery
5.) on/off button w/ LED low battery light
6.) continuously feeds- never turns off unless you turn it off
Basically that's it, so have fun. |
|
| Conclusion: |
I would recommend this hopper for beginners who want a fast hopper and who use Full Auto a lot, but for the more experienced player, i would not get this one, but maybe the version w/ eyes or an egg 3. |

|
| Review: |
The Viewloader Force is very fast, I ran a couple drop tests and 200 paintballs would empty in about 8 seconds on average, Which is roughly 25 BPS. It is a very good hopper for beginner players especially, and at 30 dollars, you arent losing much if you decide to upgrade to a better hopper later on. |
|
| Conclusion: |
If the noise doesn't bother you then this can be a very good hopper for you, It is cheap ($29.85 where I bought it) and loads paitballs at a very good speed. It has a large profile, and is therefore easy to be hit with, and without a clamp feed, It sits very high up on your marker. Overall, i give it a 7 out of 10 because it is large and goes through batteries fast.
PS- *IF YOU FOUND THIS HELPFUL, PLEASE MARK IT* |

| Review: |
This hopper is great for begginers and those don't want to spend to much money on their gun, but you'll have trouble affording the paint for it!
It feeds up to 18 bps, which is VERY fast for how inexpensive it is.
Does not chop my paint, all though I use hard paintballs (Brass Eagle Monster, Nelson Hotspot).
Very good price for the unit, though, only $30.
The hopper (when running) is a bit loud, and it isn't sound automated, so it gets annoying to reach up and turn it off and on. This results in you wanting to leave it on, which wastes battery. It also makes a low grinding noise when it's on but you're not firing.
LET THE BUYER BEWARE: this is a temptation to get trigger happy! |
|
| Conclusion: |
Buy this to save money on your gun, but not your paint. If possible, I'm going to install a sound activation unit (I'm good with electronics). Great performancee overall. |

| Review: |
This is a good hopper for any one even pros because it has 18 bps a 6 blade anti jam system and a simple on off system. this hopper has one of the smallest boards i have ever seen it uses only 1 9v compared to the evo2 that uses 2 9v and use 12v of the18 Halo speed feeds fit on this hopper |
|
| Conclusion: |
This is a great loader |

| Review: |
I recently bought this loader for 50 bucks at A localproshop, At first glance this looks like a fast loader and it is. The only problem is this loader and the Eye-Force have almost the exact same packaging. Very confusing.
So any way I took the loader out to play and it kept up great with my Wrath. I set my Wrath to full auto 18 bps and never chopped on a full loader! I do find myself turning it off impetwen encounters because it drains batterys and is very loud. |
|
| Conclusion: |
This loader is a bargin priced loader so you get a bargin priced features. I would recomned this loader for rokies and people who are poor and have no jobs like me. |

| Review: |
I dont really enjoy writing reviews because i find them to not be very helpful...look at my strengths and weaknesses and there is where you will find what you need to know. The only thing that im putting in my review is that if you are a begginer and you want an electric feed hopper to prevent jams and create a faster feed, this is the hopper for you! |
|
| Conclusion: |
If you are very into the sport i recommend a pulse or halo, but if you are a begginer with not much money, the price on this hopper is very cheap and the performance is not bad at all. Therefore, if you are a begginner, buy the hopper!!!
PS: My rating is really an 8.5, but that rounds to nine, so i put nine...hehe |

| Review: |
Works fine for speedball cause the noise doesnt matter(just extremely annoying). For a good hopper get a reloader b. I got it for $80 at my local store. i would reccommend it as a backup hopper. Definetly dont get this if u play woodsball because you will need to turn it off unless you want every one to know where you are. |
|
| Conclusion: |
If you need a backup hopper for speedball i would get it but stay away if you play woods. |
