I'm starting to get sick of the copious battery munching capabilities of my halo, jams, half an hours cleaning time, massive spillage as i attempt to pot up with a lock lid etc...

should i get a rotor? i don't necessarily want a poll on this, just give me your honest opinions. i know every other person has one now, but are they really that great? have you had any problems with them? iv seen the videos on youtube, but i want your opinions:cool:

thanks -jon

I sold my Halo and replaced it with a Rotor. I had no issues with the halo and it performed perfectly for me with no problems apart from the odd, rare jam.

The only reason I changed to the Rotor was its so much easier to clean!

Got mine just after Christmas and I have used it at 3 walk-ons and all of the Freekz winter series on the same 3 AA batteries I fitted on the day I got it, putting roughly 14-15 cases of paint through it.
The only problems I have had are 3 jams, one caused by cheap, square paint and the other two from over filling the hopper and forcing the lid shut while playing!
The rotor has never broken a ball in the hopper or while feeding and keeps the balls coming consistantly no matter how fast your fire rate.

I would recommend changing to the rotor any day but not because the halo is a bad hopper, just only if you can justify spending the extra cash just for the easier cleaning and a non-fiddly on/off button.
