    Yet Another Hopper Question(s)

    Hey all, new to the forums...don't even have a mag yet (waiting to blow my tax return $$). Anyway, had a couple questions. Yes, I've already ran a few searches, none of the results were all that helpful. Is the inteliframe mod possible on other hoppers like a reloader or a ricochet? Second question; out of those three hoppers, do they all produce relatively equal amounts of noise when they agitate? And should this even influence my hopper choice? Thanks for your input.

    well the richochet isnt to noisy when ure just messing with it it is i guess but when on the field i dotn hear it.i like it becasue it had a sensor in the neck so when a ball drops it spins to push another down.i dotn think the others u listed do i think they are just sound and movement activated(correct me if i am wrong) if u do get a ricochet stay away from the 2K it has all the fancy features but it EATS batteries like littarly eats them makes them all acidic on the outside.go read some reviews on them maybe that will help you make up your mind.

      I use a reloader, and there is no need to intelli-wire it. they are sound activated and dont make too much noise

        thanks

        Cool, thanks for the help, you people are quick! So pretty much what you're telling me is there's really no point to the inteliframe then? That kind of stinks, I like the look of it, but if a revy and the like could keep up on thier own, I'll probably try and get a hold of one of those vertical frames, can't remember the name of the one I saw on here, started with a "C" I think....would the classified forum be my best bet to buy one?

          Chimera frame by RPG.

          I have a reloader oto adn its quiet. I actually took it apart to see what I could do...

          When I was putting it back togethor after giving up, I got an idea.. I put magnets on the lid adn shell, just like in the reloader 2. So now I have a magnetic lid.

            its not that its bad to wire a revvy, just not the best choice if you have enough money for a better loader. and rogue (themagsmith) or coolhand (logic paintball) can hook you up with a vert frame.

              Rogue seems to make quality stuff and has great feedback, thanks. Can't wait to start playing again.

                  By the way incase you didnt notice both of the 90* frames (chimera & logic) have intell capabilities incase you decide to use it down the road.

                    Yup, I knew someone would catch that too...thanks dude. I figured that out like two hours after I posted that (through searching...good tool), From the replies I've gotten from you mag owners though, it doesn't sound like that's really a factor in choosing a frame for my mag, considering the intelliframe looks good on paper, but doesn't make much of a difference overall. Which I was kind of figuring in my head before I even posted anything, because I really don't think I can pull the trigger 12+ times a second anyway...I'm looking for the most quiet hopper with sufficient performance for my ability, while the reloader takes second place to the revy in terms of appearance (IMO), perrformance and reliability are key. I've searched, and read pretty much every post concerning the brittle shell on the newer revys, some input on this would be very helpful, as I'm trying to be one of the many content mag owners on this forum. Once again, this is the third post I've made on these forums, and I've already concluded that I've made the right decision on my next marker, I honestly can't wait to start playing again.

                      Revvy question

                      I've been running revolutions and evolution for sometime. In terms of the revvy i've pretty much had them pounded to death and never had one break or had any problems with it. As for the EVO's if you get a new one the body problem has been fixed for the most part as long as you get the black shell but the battery door sometimes is fragile still. I likem cause they are lighter than a halo and for the most part you get the same performance. I just don't see the point of having a hopper you can't even physically out shoot of course I have the same philosophy with markers.
