Problem with ion-e

[dangerous bry]

Hi, Thanks for your reply, The first thing i did was change the batt. The hopper i tryed is non driven ive used diffrent balls same thing single shot no prob all day long if you go to fire 5balls/s it will be fine for about 20 balls then soup. The balls roll out of the barrel no force needed. I had it chronographed about 3 weeks ago it was running at 260f/s on co2 and bout the same on air ??? You tell me im about out of ideas its being a nitemare !lol! The worst thing it hasnt made it thru a rec game yet ive had to change to a site gun to get thru the day !!!!!!!!!! I rang a couple of p/ball shops thay said that it is "double tapping" what does mean plaese


Thanks again for your time and brain scratching
Bryan

Ok its pretty much a definate for me.......

You say you have tried different balls? What kind of balls were you using? Were they white box site paint of brand named paint? If so what kind?

As mentioned right up there ^^^^^ paint has to be looked after and kept warm or cold depending on the brand and type. You get winter and summer paint, and if you dont keep summer paint warm when its colder like it is now then it will soup (brand dependin), likewise if you shoot winter paint in summer it has a huge chance of not breaking.

You didnt answer the question about eyes on or off? Does the little light (power button) flash rapidly or double flash every second this is the only way you will know if your eyes are on or off. If you dont put any paint in the loader does the marker fire? Thats probs the best way to ask the question.

Bryan, do you have an anti-syphon tube in you c02 bottle, i know you said air makes no difference, but if you havent and the liquid co2 has gotten into your marker it can really bollox it up. If you get really stuck, i'll take a look at it for you, i'm no genius, buti can normally work through these things, and i'm not too far away.

in the meantime, you can check out the manual, (if you havent got it) here
