powerfeed just doesnt send the balls up in the hopper and prevent chopping and a 12v revy would be anough you dont need a holo but it would be a +

a ricochet will be fine, but if you get a halo, make sure your powrfeed plug is all the way in. mine must have gotten loose and then it shot out in a game. and i mean shot out, it wasnt cool.

halos are quite heavy, i'd suggest against getting one on a mag, other than an Emag, cause a 12v revy, especially with x-board, will work fine

yeah, my 12v x-board used to keep up just fine, until my mini became an E. the halo weighs as much as a warp with rev, and it does make it really topheavy. i would just stick to your ricochet, it will work fine.

Um, not quite. Don't make me get my scale out!

12v Revy, w/batteries, weighs .94lbs
Warp Feed, w/2-9v's, mounting plate & hoses weighs 1.56lbs

HALO B w/batteries weighs 1.4 lbs

A mag with a "classic" (non-retro/X-Mag valve) really doesn't need an uber-fast hopper. A Revy or Rico will do just fine. The Revy will be the cheapest solution, as well. The HALO is overkill, IMHO. :)
