    The Cadlac Effect

    Every once in a while, someone gives me a good idea, and once in a blue moon, someone gives me a really good idea. This might be one of the top such occurrences in my life, a chance to create a seriously fun little gadget.
    Let me explain.

    In 2001 I invented the RT Enhancer, a neat little trigger.

    Check it out here: http://www.youtube.com/user/TheWaywardWarthog

    This year a guy who's name was only revealed as, "Cadlac" asked me if it was possible to incorperate the Enhancer design into an E-Mag trigger, and I immediately started feeling wobbly all over.
    I don't know why I never thought of it before, but when inspired, there was no stopping me. In the end, make your own judgement, but I think this thing has quite bit of potential, given the versatility
    of the E-mag with the different modes. I don't have an E-mag available for testing, so it will have to wait.
    For now, what do you think?

          That's a great idea... I really want to see that in action now.

              Well I want to see it in action too, but we'll have to wait. I'll be in the States for a bit towards the end of the summer, and I want to try it in my Micro E-Mag while I'm there. I just don't know if everything will work because it's been years since I've seen my stuff.
              What really makes me giddy is the thought of using it in hybrid mode. It just might go nuts.

              bunny-that E-Mag is my nemisis. I haven't touched it in over a year now and I fear I may never finish it simply because of its complexity. I always thought that the cocker would be my masterpiece, but the E-mag has a much more beautiful flow to it, and many more intricate parts, not to mention a few hundred more hours of work in it.
              Finishing it will take at least another 300 hours of work, and the thought of that scares me.

              I'm working on a different mag now, so at least I'm still going.
              Later,
              Dan

                I just thought I'd mention one more thing.
                That video is pre-level ten, and there are ZERO ball breaks.
                I'll admit that it had good days and bad ones, but when it ran, it ran, which for me, proves that the entire Mag design is contingient on tuning and nothing else.
                Long live the RT!

                      I can't believe no one has offered to try it out for you ( I've got an E Mag or 3 )

                          Looks like it basically has a floating trigger with stops and a spring that contacts the actual trigger so that you can set it to 'sweet spot' no matter how hard you mash the trigger, because it will apply a consistent pressure to the actual trigger.

                            ^^Right.

                            Now what would be different about that on an E-mag is what I want to know.

                              because the e-mag trigger has the magnets the affect the hall sensor. think hybrid mode, but MUCH MUCH easier to sweet spot to maximum bps.
