We are working on implementing x-board technology into the Evolution 2....that still has not happened, and I think that is where the confusion comes in.
The old evo 2 had REWORKED evo 1 boards in them. The new board is the same design less the old on/off (that sucked) and less all the bypass wires (that's why you must cut the yellow wire when upgrading to the new board)
Here at Brass Eagle we call that a "running change" .....simply put, we try to implement improvements as our production schedule allows and this was a simple case of running out of rework boards....and time to use the new boards...which gave us an oportunity to implement some improvements. We do that all the time, and we can't always inform consumers because we don't always know when the production schedule will allow it.
Anyway......Paintball Games International was the magazine that dubbed the "reworked" board the Y-board and you guys ran with it....THANK YOU.
Honestly, I don't think we realized how much of an improvement it was going to be!
Before the end of the year you will be able to get the board with the x-board technology and we will hype that event up for sure, because that bad boy is gonna rip......
Let's review what the x-board did for the 12 volt rev.
1. Quicker response
2. Faster feed
3. Longer battery life
4. Sun proof
5. Moisture proof
This new board for the evo II will have all that and more......keep an eye on viewloader.com for more.
