The Rip Clip is an electronic force-fed hopper for the BT-4 series and most Tippman 98 markers. It is essentially an electronic version of the Cyclone feed used in the Tippman A-5 and X-7 markers.

Hopper cycles paint as quick as you can tap that trigger

None found as of yet
Review:
Went through a case of paint ramping @ 13 bps setting @ 300fps never chopped a ball and never jammed. This is a vital upgrade for any BT that has an E-Grip. Makes your marker shoot so unbeleivably better it ridiculous. If you don't got one of these you need to step it up and invest in one cause its well worth it. Hats off to Ben Tippmann and Halo
Conclusion:
If ya don't got one get one. You do your marker no justoce without one

Review:
I got the Rip Clip because I was having issues with my marker un-cocking. I tried everything I could think of to fix it till I noticed that every time it un-cocked there was a ball jammed in the breach. I surmised that my revvy wasn't keeping up with my rate of fire. As soon as I got the Rip Clip, I was able to set my e-grip to it's max setting and empty a hopper on a single trigger pull! I had found the problem. The amazing thing is, my BT never once chopped a ball. It simply jammed them. That surprised me. Anyway, I am very happy with this product and I don't hesitate to recommend it to anyone. They now have a version for the Tippmann 98 custom. I would get this over a Cyclone.
Conclusion:
Highly recommended. It drastically improves your marker's cycle rate and feed reliability. If you are having cocking problems, it may be that your loader can't keep up. If you have a BT-4, TM-7 or 98 custom, the Rip Clip is a sweet piece of kit. It will load over twenty balls per second and do it quietly.

This is a very nice upgrade for the BT markers works great and feeds fast ,this hopper system made by Bet Tippmann and Halo , this is a must if you have a e-trigger on your BT marker .there is one thing if you get a x7 hopper it will fit on this and looks better than the stock hopper that comes with the drive system.
Conclusion:
If you are in the game and have a e-trigger this is a must have ,well that and lots of paint
