Basically it lowers the chances of paint breaking in your hopper even more.

Pretty sweet as you can speed the motor up and adjust the clutch so it delivers very quickly but slips if the paint suddenly stops in the feedneck :)

I have one, and whilst it sounds nice, I never had a break in my hopper before I fitted it. I kinda regret it now, but I have removed the magnetic clutch and just use the standard drive in it, but with the new drive cone.

The magnets are fiddly, the manual gives you abot 50 different ways to configure it with no real explanation of what the difference is, as it all depends on the pattern that you put the magnets in.

If I was you, either find someone with one who saw an improvement, or save the £30.

The way they are set up stock is fine for 99% of markers. There is no need to adjust anything.

Did you watch the youtube vids on how to set it up? Explains everything in full.

This product is designed as a drop in upgrade. Meaning just install and go. The option is there to have a fiddle, but I wouldnt recommend it, especially if you dont even understand the manual.

Even in the manual for the upgrade kit (not the Magna Loader itself) details 3 main ways of setting the magnets. I bought it online whilst buying something else, just thought "yeah why not" but then realised that I've never had a break in my hopper anyway. Sure, if you're shooting fragile paint I can see how the clutch slipping can help reduce the ballstack pressure to avoid breaks etc, so when I have a break, I'll put it back in.

The good thing about it is, you can easily and quickly change between a standard sprung wheel and the magna clutch, both using the new dome.

Well, quickly if you can split the shell of the hopper in 2 and then strip out the Halo eyes and top section of the feedtube in under 2 minutes :D
