Hi guys, just wondering if the complete Halo internals would fit in an empire reloader b shell?? i want to buy a halo with damaged shell and stick the parts in my empire b shell, would this work?
Cheers,
Chris

Yes.
The only difference from the Halo and Reloader is drive operating system (board, eyes etc.) all other parts are 100% interchangeable.

I was told the empire doesn't have the eyes? so what is the difference between the two hoppers? is it just the board? if so could that alone be changed and work with the rest of the empire integrals?

the reloader b works on a microphone pick-up instead of eyes. When it "hears" the marker fire, it turns. The halo b turns when it "sees" a gap in the ball stack.
as the hole for the eyes is within the inner feedneck of the halo b, it will fit easily in the relaoder b shells.
not 100% on the local of the mic on teh reloader b tho'..........

Cheers mate. but if i wanted to just upgrade my empire reloader to the specs of a halo, what would i need? could u list the parts so i dont spend more than i have to
Many thanks,
Chris
To change a reloader b into a halo you will need the following:
- Reloader b
- Halo board
- Halo eyes
Then do the following:
- Open the reloader shells.
- Take out the board, catch cup and battery pack.
- Disconnect the battery pack and board from the rest.
- Get halo eye wires and insert them into the small holes on the feed kneck area of the catch cup and tape them in place.
- Take halo board and connect the motor wire to the right side of the board (if you are looking at it with the pins facing you) and connect the eye wire to the left set of pins.
- Put the internals back into the shells as usual.
- Replace battery pack and turn on.
The cone should start to spin constantly. To test the eyes simply stick your finger into the feedneck and the cone should stop spinning.
The reverse can be done to change a halo to a reloader.
NOTE: halo's generally require 6xAA's to work as opposed to the 4xAA pack which reloaders can run off so changing reloader to halo may require a 6xAA battery pack.
