Fast enough for mid guns
timer
magnetic lid

Review:
This loader was like 70.00 at the local shop and it was as much as the led so i got this one. I used it like the next day and it was amazing if i didnt have it it would have been not as fun. It feeds fast About 14 bps fast enough for my piranha so its cool.
Conclusion:
BUY it and use it well if u have a gun that doesnt need an egg or a halo B

LCD a little tricky at first but easy after a while
Review:
I got this hopper at a local store used for about $30. I didnt start using it for a while though because i didnt have my response trigger yet. But when i got it and finally used my hopper i could fire as fast as i wanted to with the response(though it didnt stop the gun from de-cocking if it shot too fast). I've never chopped a ball when the hopper was on but i have when i forgot to turn it on. The LCD screen was a little confusing for me at first but i read the manual and understood it.
Conclusion:
ill give it a 9 out of 10 since the LCD was a little tricky and for $69 it could load a little faster.Overall i would recommend this hopper to anyone wanting a good hopper under $70.
Spyder Shutter Java Edition with ACS Bolt. Odyssey Halo Backman LCD TSA. Kingman Rocking Trigger Frame. Kingman Java Preset N2 Tank - 48ci 3000psi. PMI 72 3000 N2 Tank
Strengths:
Keeps up with the Rocking Trigger. Variable Speeds.
Weaknesses:
Is a little slow with a side feed gun.
Review:
This hopper was a very good buy. It keeps up pretty good with the Rocking Trigger. Some times when I would shoot I would only shoot air because the balls were not coming down fast enough. But the main part is that I dont have a vertical feed, its side feed. But other than that it was a great hopper.
Conclusion:
I would recomend it to anyone who dosn't want to spend $120 on a Halo B. It works better with a vertical feed.
98c 14" barrel pro team bolt
mongoose reincarnation2 tsa backman lcd
Strengths:
Nearly everything is adjustable.
Weaknesses:
The halo stickers peel off.
Review:
this gun has a tilt and sound sensor it loads fast and I have heard the company has great customer service. I have seen no more flaws than this. When you lean left the paddles turn right. When you turn the other way the paddles do the opposite. I think this is a great buy because it works for me I hope you find this review helpful. Please private message me if you have any questions
Conclusion:
Buy it, it is a great deal and it has a one year warranty.
JT protium with a 14" silver teardrop barrel and smoke halo TSA LCD
Strengths:
Looks awesome, fast enough to keep up with most markers and holds plenty of paint.
Weaknesses:
Kinda big and the stickers fell off but i fixed it with super glue.
Review:
This is an awesome hopper that i would recommend to everybody. Its fully customizable (when i say that i mean that you can change the speed settings and stuff) and is fast enough to keep up with most markers without a problem. it is also very sturdy and will not break. And its very cheap at $50. And another cool thing is the way that it turns the other way when you tilt it so that it can get every ball.
EDIT: my feedneck broke so im lowering the rating
Conclusion:
I recommend this loader to everybody because it is cheap and it gets the job done. i give it a 9 because my feedneck broke

I got this hopper cause it could keep up with my full auto and held way more balls than other hoppers. Right out of the box it didnt agitate unless it heard extremely loud sounds. Since its sound activated I turned the sensitivity to the lowest setting and it still barely agitated. I sent it back the next day because I need a hopper thats going to actually agitate when my gun makes sound, and i dont have a particularly quiet gun either. Maybe sound activation was a bad idea here.
Conclusion:
Dont bother with this one. Get a ricochet, they are sensor activated and my Ricochets have never failed me.
Spyder Pilot. J&J ceramic barrel, Blade trigger, CO2
Strengths:
Good looking
Holds lots of paint
Fast
Tilt fed
Sound activated
Weaknesses:
Possibly a weak feed neck
Review:
I upgraded to an electric marker so I bought this hopper on the net. I have been very pleased with it thus far. It holds a lot of paint, which minimizes your need for reloading. It is very efficient with its battery usage. I have yet to replace my batteries. It keeps up with my spyder at 13 balls a second without chopping.
My feedneck has a crack in it. It appears to have retained its structural integrity, however, it is a cause for concern. I fear that it may rupture in the near future and hinder my ability to play.
Conclusion:
I feel that this is a very good hopper for the mid range player. I recommend it to all who need an electronic hopper.
Mach 404 , not a bad hopper but dosn't compare to this Halo.
Marker Setup:
Spyder Imagine, Whisper barrel, Shocktech supa fly bolt, CMI International drop forward, new shim and spring kit, Halo tsa LCD Backman
Tippmann A-5 w/ All American
Strengths:
Cool looks, fast, light, long battery life, even with 9 volts.
Weaknesses:
Stickers don't stay on very well but super glue fixes that.
Review:
This is a very good hopper. It has many differnt settings from motor duration to ball counter. I have shot on full auto and never broken a ball. With the Tilt Sense Activation or TSA, htere is never a misfeed or a break a ball. Also, the shell is very durable and can come in black, clear or smoke, mine is smoke and looks awesome.
Conclusion:
This is a great hopper and I would recomend it to anyone who is looking for a reliable and durable hopper.
The Halo Tsa loader disappointed me very much. The first day i got it the battery door broke, and the batteries didnt fit right and i had to put tape over the batt door so i could keep it working. A few days later while diving to a bunker the shell hit the bunker( did not hit very hard) and the shell cracked. After that i thought it was just a faulty one so i called odyssy and told them about the loader. The people didn't do it easily but they sent me another one. The very next day while playing with a friend, he hit the feedneck from a fair distance and it snapped right off. Fuming I called Odyssey and gave them a piece of my mind.
Conclusion:
I would NOT recommend a halo tsa to any one who wants a broken loader. i was highly dissapointed. I give it a 2 because the lid was magnetic and is pretty cool

black cp mini drop
Smoke Halo Backman TSA
black cp asa on off
black macroline
Strengths:
Great look
Awsome speed for all semi- autos
Never jams or chops
Weaknesses:
Well for the obvious, this wont work with automatic guns. Nothing bad other wise.
Review:
i definatly reccomnd this hopper to anyone who doesnt want 2 spend 130 on a HALO B.
I find this hopper as the one just under the HALO B. Not too much of a difference in the two for the most part. Maybe a lil less speed and not as costomizable.
Conclusion:
Get this bad ass hopper. Great for any semi auto cocker.
