WGP '04 autococker, E-Blade, Worr Delrin Bolt, Worr Torpedo On/Off, Halo B w rip drive, QEVs, HPA
Strengths:
Agitator is great and pretty quiet
Tilt device
Weaknesses:
None really.
Review:
I have found this hopper being durable and reliable. Knows which way it is being tilted so it can use the agitator to spin both clock/counterclockwise to feed the balls better. The only problem I have had with it is if you are playing with the two 9 volt batteries, they don't fit quite snug enough. What I do is I play with the battery connectors and bend them out a bit to ensure there is good contact and also tore off part of the battery pack and placed it under the battery lid to ensure it was really snug. This way my hopper isn't tuning off in the middle of a a firefight. I also thought the instruction book was really poorly written. There isn't really an explaination to it at all but it isn't hard to figure out. I have even used this hopper with my E-blade before I got my Halo B, and even then didn't really have problems using it or outshooting it unless I was bouncing the trigger.
If I was going to be using it as a primary hopper I would definitly get the battery tray for the 6 AA batteries as they last longer than the 9 volts...it is also easier to get rechargable AAs. Would go with rechargable Nickel Metal Hydride...they are more expensive but longer lasting then the NiCad.
Conclusion:
A good hopper to buy in my opinion...even with my Halo B I keep it around as a backup...

1. It looks good
2. It is good on batteries
3. it holds a lot of paint
4. The Tilt thing
5. Very user friendly
6. It is a halo

Review:
I bought The HALO TSA Backman LCD loader from my friend brand new, never opened. It's clear, and let me tell you, not only is this hopper ugly as a mother, but it scratches very easily. The logos that say HALO will peel right off, and its a pain to keep supergluing them on. This hopper keeps up with my 98c with double trigger, but it looks like if I had a Imp or BKO, i would outshoot this thing in a second. I would much rather suggest going 12v revolution with x-board, they're made so much better.
Conclusion:
This hopper is not worth the 80 dollars that you'll pay, get a revvy if you want to save, or an evo II if you want to pay the 80. NOT THE HALO TSA

Weaknesses:
weak shells
huge
Review:
overall i think this is a great hopper for a gun under 18 bps. you should get this hopper instead of a revvy cause they suck and a egg cause they cost more but get a egg or halo b if u have a quik gun but if u have a mechanical cocker or impy w/o vision get this hopper or if ur gun cant shoot more than 18 bps.
i have had the hopper about 6 months and had no problems but the night before a big game my shell split in half and broke so alls im saying is the hoppers great but the shells need better quality and need to improve. the price is pretty good though i got it for about 70 or 80 so its good for the price. But id go with the evo 2

Review:
Basically this is simply a great hopper, when I first got it I was so happy because at first I was going to get the Zap Mach 404 hopper but after reading reviews on this same website I found out that it was a bad hpper and wouldnt keep up with my response trigger. So I decided to get this Halo and I am going to pay the dept back and let people know that if they are debating on whether to get this hopper or a different one, Just trust me GET THIS HOPPER. And if your gun can shoot faster then this hopper just get the Halo B I have also heard that that hopper is also a great hopper.
Bottomline THIS IS A GREAT HOPPER
Conclusion:
Just read what I wrote up there ^ again.

i am.. very. very. very impressed with this hopper.. its a great hopper, the design is beautiful with the low frontal profile, its skinny and short so theres a small chance of gettin hit in it..the sound activation and tilt activation works wonderful! i can hold the gun sideways and it will still shoot and feed.. the lcd h itas so many options, u can change the duration of the spin, the sensitivity, it has a shot counter, it has a timer, it shows u how many hoppers u went through, and theres so many many more options with it.. this hopper now sells for 70$ and its well worth
Conclusion:
this hopper is a wonderfull hopper.. i am giving it a 10 becuase its well wroth the 70$ if your upgrading your standard hopper, or even a revy, definatly go for this one.. its absouletly wonderful
