    UV hoppers have a black light inside them. The idea is that some scenario producers allow the use of glow-in-the-dark paint during the night portion of their games, and the black light charges the balls so they're still glowing when you shoot them. This lets you track your shots and makes it possible to do paint checks at night if you don't trust players to leave on bounces like you do with normal paint.

    Most of the UV hoppers made have 2 issues: They're not motorized, so you have to shake&bake. They're clear, so everyone on the field knows where you are. Personally, if you want a UV product, I'd say check out Palmer's, they sell UV charging feed elbows that will do the same thing for cheaper and you can still use an agitating hopper.

    Muahahaha
