Halo Rip +35 vs VL2

Hi All

Well what an intresting thread.

Facts:-

VL holds 23 balls more than the halo (this without cramming the balls so that the loaders will jam)

Halo weighs 700g (with six Pack Battery)

Vl weighs 502g

Likes & dislikes.

The shape of the VL is funny & it takes quite q time to get used to potting up as the lid is on top. In my opinion (mine only) the VL is made of cheaper plastic as it took me only a few outtings to break it.

The halo is stronger, but weighs a little more.

Also performance especially with the halo using a 35 board is no different they both feed as fast as f**k. Both tried on Nexus Ego (ramp) G7 (Ramp) 05 speed (ramp) o5 didnt like the halo much.
The VL is probably slightly friendly on very fragile paint as the halo will normally break it.

The other thing is the Vl is only out in Black (can't see how much paint is left) or smoke.

Choice is up to you, but i have both & i will not be giving my halo up at all. In fact nor will i give up my backup Relaoder.


PLEASE NOTE

All opinion's are my own, so dont go slagging my findings unless you have taken the time & trouble to use both.

Cheers

Jules

Interestingly the 6 batteries weigh in at 60g heavier than the four. So if you are that worried someone is doing a 2 9volt conversion harness for the hao/relaoders


Cheers

Jules:D :p

i find the vlocity is awesome its really light and feeds very quick and the adjustable pressure on the stack is good feature and its easy to change settings, had my first break in it took it apart its quite easy when ya get the hang of things, but first time seemed tedious with the spring on the paddle but other than that my hopper of choice for sure
