Air Bottles and hoppers for an Ego 05

[RobsonGTO]

Stage 2 done, got my mask and my marker!

Just bought an Ego 05 and am now looking at getting a bottle, what am i looking for? is there different types of bottles to fit certain markers? Just want something that is going to get me on the field ready to go...

I was recommended getting a Halo B hopper, i think this should fit my ego without any issues an i right?

Many thanks

Andy

hi andy
get a 1.1 4500 psi air tank bud should get around 1500 shots of a full tank also the halo will work fine with it or a reloader b or b2
the halo and empire are the same loader shell with slightly diff internals halo has eyes too detect ball movement and the empire is sound activated

hey up fella, are u gettin into paintball to play a lot or not?

if you are then get ya sen a 5000psi kevlar bottle get about 1500+ shots off with an ego
if your not then get ya sen a steel 60quid!! 3000psi

as for a hopper save your self a bit of cash an buy a dye rotor u cant go wrong with them at all just watch the test

i own one and havent had a break yet and havent changed the batterys once and ive put like 10boxes of paint through it!!

Snax - Like the hopper, just abit concerned about the missing pieces, im abit of a noob at the momment so still learning about all the parts, ill get back to you on that one as i have seen a blue halo b for sale, but it dont have the speed feed...choices choices

Thanks for that advice synergy and paintballbandit, im looking to be playing twice a month to start off with and see how i go from there, 60 quid to get me started aint too bad...plus that dye rotor looks well cool, just abit out my price range at the moment getting started up an all .

Thanks again.

Its only missing a screw which im pritty sure its in my kit bag. lol indeedy choices forum is a great place to be when buying and selling

definitely go for a carbon fibre bottle with at least a year or so test left, its a good investment.

halo B, reloader b2- around £40 second hand, rotor- around 90ish at the moment, as everyone seems to want one (because they are the dogs danglies)

with the rotor you will save on batteries, but i still run a halo B, and they are awesome!

buying good kit saves you money in the long run, i wish to God when i started i had known what i do now, would have saved me a lot of money
