Rotor

Hi,

Just a simple question; is it worth me buying a rotor?
I currently have a Halo too, and I'm wondering if there is any noticeable benefits.

Thanks,

Jamie

I personally think the Rotor is the best loader you can buy - a Halo is perfectly adequate and will feed as fast as you ever need, but a Rotor:

- is better built (bomb-proof shell, no cracked shells or battery doors on this puppy)
- is MUCH easier to strip (10 seconds to get the whole thing in pieces)
- has incredibly battery life (I know people who have played 6+ events on the same set of AAs)
- issupremely reliable.....I'm yet to see a broken Rotor.

Only downsides to Rotors are a) they cost a lot and b) the don't like Reballs. So if you've got the money and don't use Reballs, I'd say go for it.

As Gadget said, get a Rotor... or a Spire.. either way, better than a Halo Too.

Rotor or spire? or Z2?

All three are very very good hoppers.
Can't go wrong with any of them.

I like my Spire as I have it set up to also take .50cal paintballs. It works fine with reballs too. Doesn't jam.
Rotor is very good too. Robust. You KNOW it will work. Only one I have seen not work, was due to rust as the guy took it to an island off Croatia and decided to jump in the sea with it Replaced the rusted springs and whammo worked again. Board was fine too.

I've not tried a Spire myself, but have had both a Z2 and a Rotor and massively preferred the Rotor to the Z2.
