hi all, wanted to clear some things up.
in your opinion.
better than halo with v35 or z code.
heard that the sound activated can be a bit of bugger by pushing the balls down further past the detents by other noises other than the marker.

thanx

I'd of stuck this in tech;)

Anyway.... I've shot all 3 you've mentioned;

Halo B 'z board'
V35
Reloader

I didn't notice a massive increase performance wise between the halo and v35. I do seem to remember mashing paint but honestly can't remember if swapping back to the z board helped or not. That said though I have had instances of feeding problems/consistancy of feed with my Reloader thoough others I've used have been excellent!
I currently use a Reloader B and have a Z-board Egg as backup.

Sorry for the vagueness, hope it helps...

As Paul says some people loathe Reloader B's but I have nothing but praise for them.

Stick it on the lowest speed through winter for fragile paint and read the manual and it will be golden.

Only things you need to remember...

1. mount it on your marker, turn it on (away from chrono area etc due to excessive noise) and THEN pour the paint in. DON'T tip in paint then turn it on as it spins first and that can crush balls in the stack.

2. One you have turned it on then loaded in paint leave it on all day while you are playing, no need to turn it off after every game.

Apart from that I have found it to be the most reliable and consistant off the shelf Halo variant available.

Just leave it on - works fine, only needs 4 AA's too, save weight rather than using 6.

Used one all last year and never had the issue John C mentioned though - I love 'em. Three or four of the team have them and again - zero issues. Just leave it on speed 1 though, when I upped it to speed 2 or 3 I always started getting ball breaks.

Never outshot speed 1 anyway :)

everytime u turn it on it sets the sound sensitivty or something similar

so turn it on at start of day in a nice quiet place and leave it on
