Similar Products Used:
Evolution 3, Halo B, Empire reloader
Marker Setup:
Smart Parts Epiphany. Upgrades: nothin yet really. I have a egg3 on it and a pure energy 3000 aluminum tank on it.
Strengths:
The key strenths are its low profile, ability to keep up with most guns, style
Weaknesses:
The feed neck is very VERY weak, very thin plastic where the feed neck is.
Review:
This is a hopper for the price but then again it is a risky buy. My friend was taking his fasta out of his hopper and the neck broke. This is like the biggest risk of the whole hopper. Cause of that I dont know how it would hold up in a high impact game.
Conclusion:
My final recomendation is that anyone should by like an evolution 3 hopper, halo 3, an empire, or even a pulse.

Strengths:
Very fast, strong shell, sleek and low profile from the front
Weaknesses:
A little bulky
Review:
The fasta is a great hopper, and very fast. Not bad considering I only paid $75 for it. It has not failed me yet. My marker does not have eyes, and this hopper keeps up with it, even in full auto. Shell seems to be very strong. It can feel a little awkward because it is so long, but it have a very low profile from the front.
Hard to clean the inside of the hopper and soom area on the outside.
Review:
This hopper is very easy to use. We have 3 of them for my family. They are quite TOO. The LCD screen has a timer and lets you know how long you have been playing or how long the marker is on. I use it to remind me to reset my Dye when we are play in scenario's. 10 minutes and my marker shuts off. GREAT Hopper !
Conclusion:
This is a great hopper for Rec or X balls. I have these for all of my familys markers.

Weaknesses:
MMMMMMMMMMmmmmmmmm
Review:
i tested this hopper along with a Empire b and the results were very close maybe one or two bps faster with the halo b we tested it with a Lasoya Promaster, Angel 4 fly and a DP Fusion with the fasta keeping up with all the gun 22bps with the promaster , 21 semi on the angel and 23 bps with the fusion, i also tested the fasta with ramping with eyes off not one chop , i had a halo v35 with rip i had alot of breaks in the hopper which is why i sold it to buy this , i am very happy with the fasta is almost just as fast as a halo but holds more balls and lighter then anyother loader ,

Strengths:

Review:
very fast hopper, has cool features, i have the led one. Fairly reasonable price for 30 bps, 80.00 bucks on Action Village. Took me 15 minutes to grind it to fit on my gun, but once it was there is shot a full hopper with no chops. buy it if you can't afford a halo
Conclusion:
I would recommend this to any who is low on the cash
Well over the passed to years playing Turny paintball i have used a few diffrent hoppers like the revvy's eggs's Halo B2, and the Pulse(junk feedneck) most of them work really well but had a very low shelf life and didnt last me long some times feednecks would break or the motor would die. but in the last little while i have been using the Kingman Fasta. I find that it has alot going for it. because it is thick plastic it can take hits from close range. The feed neck is one of the main good things about it. its double layerd plastic makes it very durrable even when sliding or jaring. the battery use is average and the speed is GREAT for its price because alot of there other hoppers will run you 200$-150$ and this will only run u 80$ and works alot better and lasts alot longer
Conclusion:
Great product works well , really fast , super durable , super cheap. Best hopper on market
This is a very quick hopper. The looks aren't the greatest But Its very light and fast. In some places there extra plastic that really doesnt need to be there, But still the hopper is very light. For those who dont have a clamping feedneck, the fasta has a snug fit in the feedneck. This is a very good hopper.
Conclusion:
I would reccomend this hopper to anyone with a fast gun.
Lid
Hard to clean
LCD version no better then the LED version
Feed impeller
Review:
OK. I have only used this item for about a week now and I am rather impressed with it. The Fasta is fast and I have no doubt that it feeds at 30+ BPS, but it doesn't seem like a true force feed hopper like the Halo B. The extra ball capacity is very welcome and Kingman still managed to keep the size of the Fasta shorter then the Halo B and just a tad longer. The only real complaint I have about this hopper is that under high rates of fire from my VS3, the Fasta was not able to keep up as good as my Halo B with the V35 board installed. The fasta is not sound or eye activated, there is a little strip that is in the feedneck that when a ball moves over it, the impeller will spin. Also, Kingman decided that cheap stickers on the outside and on one side only was better then actually painting on the Fasta name and the Spyder symbol.
Now let me explain the stuff above:
Strengths:
Dual 9 volt operation - uses two 9v batteries for a total of 18 volt's
Price - I got mine for $72.00
Tough shell - the shell can take close up hits with no damage
Quiet - The hopper uses a very small motor and it is nice and quiet
Weaknesses:
Lid - the lid seems week and fragile
Hard to clean - There is a lot of nooks and crannies for paint to get into
LCD ver VS LED ver - The LCD version is no better then a LED version except for a game timer, thats all the LCD version has over the LED version.
Feed impeller - This item seems very week and looks like it could break, but only time will tell.
Conclusion:
Overall, the Kingman Fasta is a very good hopper. The LCD version is normally priced at $99.99 from Kingman, but I would only get the LED version. This is a very nice first for Kingman.

Strengths:

Weaknesses:

Jams at high ROF
Review:
When I first used the product I thought it would be a vlocity killer, but it jamed when i drop tested it. It clocked out at about 25-28 BPS. I think it was only my paint that made it slow.
At semi mode capped at 20 bps it was really smooth and somewhat quieter than my halo.
but at ramping mode (uncapped ROF) it jammed more times than fat kid squeezing thru a window half his size. i could do 24 bps.
Conclusion:
Stay away from this if you play speedball or x-ball. if your a noob this is perfect.
