    My new Warp Feed E-mag is ready to play!

    Thanks go out to

    Luke for the warp mount
    vf-xx for the warp in parts that I made into a working feed system
    Radio shack for the On off and LED
    AGD for missing parts and making the warp

    No I don't have a Warp body this is a test run to see if I like the Warp set up. So far just doing one hopper full of paint at home I think Ill enjoy it.

    Maybe after a Warp Body it will be MOTM worthy?

    Looks nice.... Love the flames on that revvy. You know you need to modify the rail for a warp body right? A small groove has to be cut to clear the feedneck on those bodies. So if you don't want to mess up this rail you should also look for a rail that allready has been milled. I think KC might have a few for sale...

    I loved the warp when i first used it, but due to weight and the extra headshots i went back to vert feed. Also the switch on the warp can be a pain, because during play you sometimes flick it, turning the warp off. I have a warp with the exact same mod done to it, and it had the lever cut for that exact same reason when i got it. But still i managed to accidentally turn the warp off so in the end i covered it with ducktape.

      good to see it up and running.

      Play with it a bit, if you decide you want to go warp body, maybe I can hook you up again.

        Looks great, I have a similar setup.

        Only thing that I notice while playing is that I constantly shut the warp off mid game.

        It was like:

          Thanks for the comments. I have thought about hiting the switch off, So ill bring a pair of pliers to the field so I can jut it off If i need too.

          I turned the 90* adp so the hose now comes from the back of the gun. Looks much better I think.

          I am aware of the groove that will need to be put in my Nicely anoed rail... another reason I didn't get a warp body before I'm 100% sure I like it, and I might just keep it this way so if I need I can always pull the hopper off and sticking back on top while on the field mid game.

            yeah so many people destroy pristine rails like that with warp cuts, its so stupid imho. For AGD history sake I say don't do it, get a dirt cheap rail to do that on.

            But it is your property, so do whatever you want

              Question too.

              For a 12v mod, I use 3 9v leads and have the 2 in series? and one reversed to connect to the existing 9v lead?

                - Three 9v connectors (radio shack $5 for 5)
                - Heat shrink (radio shack or just use electrical tape)
                - solder iron (maybe but if your don't know how to then just skip this)


                Cut the heat shrink into two 1 1/2" pieces. Slip the 1 1/2" heat shrinks on one of the connectors. wire up the the connectors like so\/ making sure that the top one has the heat shrink on it.

                Solder the connections together. Slip the heat shrink over the newly solder connections. Use your soldering iron and heat up the heat shrink so it gets smaller. DONE!

                The other way to do this is just twist the wires together and tape them up but this is the cheap and easy way and most of the time it will come undone.

                    I think there should be a regulator in there somewhere. Last I remember some warp boards could take 18 and some can't.

                      It will only be 18v if the batteries are wired in series. The diagram shown will wire them in parallel producing 9v at double the amperage netting 1-2bps on the warp. This is called the "big cell" mod.

                      PTP sells the 12v mod harness here (when they have them in stock ).

                        get me a bread board and a few resistors and you can make one just like they are selling.

                          no need for a bread board. you only need one resistor. I dont remember which one it is, but it is listed somewhere on AO.

                          luke at www.lukescustoms.com makes them for a few bucks.

                            You need a 12 reg in there. 18v WILL fry your board. I also find that if you do not put a capacitor in there, the vide sensor gets all weird and runs for no reason. Something about 'signal noise'. Plus, a cap will increase your battery life somewhat.

                              I'm not using the vibe sensor. got it wired into my solenoid
