    Pinokios are really just Revvies on crack and pcp. They function the almost same, require no maintenance unless you blow paint up inside, barely eat batteries and best of all, they work, period. As for the profile, one of the nastiest front speedball players I know uses ones and he's never complains about it, so it's really just skill and not equipment issue. It also won't push through your detents like other force feeds loaders I've touched.

      That's what I meant about Rotors and Halos on mags - always have had a problem.

        i'm looking to pick one of these up now. They're on Ebay for less than $80 BNIB, but I'd rather buy one from an AO'er if you have one.

          I am currently trying to setup my E-Mag with the Pinokio and Warp. The nose cone isn't as noticeable and it isn't tall at all when configured this way. If I can ever get my Emag to stop leaking I might actually be able to play with it to see how it works. (nose cone is for defensive or non-mobile assault support.)

            I'm curious why you decided to use warp + pinokio? do you have a warp left / right frame?

                If you are a fan of revvies then you will like the pinokio. I own a prophecy and at times had issues with it and switched over to a Pinokio. If i could get the money up i would definitely purchase one and that will probably bemy main hopper. IMO it does seem to sit a little higher than other hoppers but the advantage to that is you will have a more unobstrcuted view if you sight down both sides of the feedneck. The feedneck is solid and ribbed so you never have to worry about that breaking and should you ever have problems with your Pinokio the customer service from what i have been told is stellar. The Pinokio is very easy to clean should you ever have the misfortune of broken paint in it as it is perfectly safe to run water through it as long as you keep the water away from the back half of the hopper with the electronics. If you batteries ever die in the middle of a game it still functions as a gravity fed hopper as well. All in all it is a solid performer and imo a worth while investment.
