most half skilled players can shoot a lane and load at the same time anyways so i dont see that as a advantage, and its a bigger targer to shoot at also, i would go for the rotor imo mate, batteries really do last for ever, and very strong 2, i went through 3 shells on my prohecy this year diving into the snake etc, but never broke my rotor apart from dislodging the batteries once when i went arse over tit in the woods one day and banged it very hard on a rock, probaly would of smashed most other hoppers, but on the other hand the pinokio has a few diffrent options for it and lifetime waranty doesnt sound bad, who sells these in the uk ??

ROTOR FTW PINOKIO'S ARE UGLY AND BIG!:D

and i think they are easier to clean and batteries last a hell alot longer.

Go with the Rotor mate.

Very strong hopper, batteries last for months, strip and clean in record times, consistent feed, you can even put luminous green highlight kits on if that's your thing.

Try and get the latest gen of the Rotor, aka the one that most shops have, or ask if it has the velcro straps and new feed arm with the 'fin' .

If you ever have any issues get in contact with Dye tech support and they will help you out no end.

Regards

Ed

I also think when the Rotor has tension the power cuts. So there is very little or no tension on the paintball untill the ball is shot and the next one drops. The only thing that is being powered is the LED light at the back.

Correct me if im wrong but was told that.. Might be a contributor to the amazing battery life!

Rotor all the way....
