Which hopper to get?
I'm happy to get a Vlocity but my brothers whining at me that the Halo is better and "all the pro's use it"

Halo B vs Vlocity

- Start date
there the only to hoppers ive used, and personaly i prefer the vlocity,
it feels nice on my marker, it weighs a little less and overall i prefer it. downside is it will eat batteries so will need to get an aftermarket board ive got two vlocities 1 with a gangster chip and 1 with a virtue chip both work awsome and have the custom modes to program the hopper. some people may say there loud only time i find this is when its empty. also there fairly easy to take apart.
Halo's good reliable hopper cheaper than the vlocity, and they dont really need a chip, only thing may want to get for it would be a 9v converter, don't eat batteries, quiet and sit fairl nice on your marker, (can't say weather easy or not to take apart asnever did with mine)
my prefernce would be a vlocity and a lot of pro teams use them aswell if you're into that sort of thing.
hope this helps.

in my opinion the vlo beats the halo in everything apart from battery life, its not ridiculously bad and a chip isn't necessay but it's a wortwhile upgrade (im still running mine stock)
though it depends really.
if you're playing woodsball with lots of breaks in the action and longer games than in supair then get halo as you'll run out of batteries like nobody's business with the vlo. But if you're going for supair then i'd go vlo.
They're both good hoppers and it really comes down to personal preference and price, you wont be disappointed with either but 'I' would go for a vlo

vlocity all the way. used them since they first come out and wouldnt change for anything. auto unjam is a god send and as mentioned the only problem is battery life, simple enough fix with an aftermarket chip. got a hyperdrive chip in mine and love it.
I run a halo, to be honest i have never had a problem with it. Vlocity plastics in my humble opinion aren't as strong and spare parts can be difficulty to get hold of in the UK. Try to find a feedneck.
We have used vlocity jnr's all year, played 5 milleniums and alot of other events, they been bashed around alot this season and used nearly every weekend this year, and we hav'nt had a single shell or neck brake on any of them. VLOCITY'S ARE ROCK SOLID
i got a vlocity jnr recently with a virtue chip and its amazing!
Even with the dye rotor and prophecy out i still went for the velocity as its perfect for me

i choose velocity and leave the lid on it, it stops the little 5p's getting in an soil nd stuff. (plus i think lids are quicker to reload but thats another argument i dont want to get into).
halo B struggles to work well in the cold! though it does have better battery life compared to velocitys and batterys are day light robbery =[

Hmm tough call id flip a coin but about the same. Vlocity is lighter but makes more noise, good size but a little higher sitting than the Halo.
Halo is lower profile but moe prone to problems. But then a lot easier to upgrade and fix. All in all about the same
