Warp Feed Hose length

[Ash]

What?s the maximum practical length for the hose on the warp feed system?

You should have enough to be just a tiny bit longer that the actual measurement. This will keep some tension, pushing the hose into the adapters so there is less chance of it pulling out.

He means how long can you make the hose, and the warpfeed will still feed

[Army]

Oh, ok. That's all dependant on where you mount the Warp itself. No hose is too long with everything mounted to the gun. A back-packed Warp would have to be experimented with to get the feed wheel tension high enough to push balls 3-4 feet, without breaking any. (It's been done BTW)

Thanks for the help. Just thinking as my air's remote why not make the ball feed remote as well.

I know this is a real old post, but it was the only post that I could find that had anything to do with what I was looking for.

I've seen elsewhere that people say the backpack feed system has been done. That's great, but I can't find any info on it. And I can't go anywhere and buy one, so that leaves me to build my own.

Does anyone know where I can find info on increasing the feed wheel tension of the Warp Feed? I need to increase the speed/power of the warp feeding through a longer hose (say 4 feet or so).

Thanks
