    You mean you have the cable plugged into the board? It will still give you some interference.

      Don't have an e-mag board so I did like you do for the angle warp mod and taped it into the solenoid leads.

        Since you're already running a wire for the Intellifeed, you could always just tap some power off of the emag battery. I did that when I was running an Emag way back.

        Hrm. I wonder if I still have that harness lying around.

          Ah you have a Morlock board. I think they have a port in the harness for an accessory such as the warp feed, but its been so damn long I dont remember what pugs they are.

          Those Morlocks (and Predator Morlocks) make emags

            Yeah it is a predator Morlock. and I did see that some of the ports pugs are unused but I don't know enough about it yet. so I just taped onto the solenoid lead and it works great!

            if you drew from the e-mag battery you would still need some voltage regulation for the warp. and the draw from the warp wouldn't be much that it would drain your e-mag battery pack too much... that would be nice not having 4 9v's (2 for revie 2 for warp) and the e-mag battery pack.

              Right, I put a regulator in the battery compartment of the warp. I wanted to run my revvy off of it too, but I never could figure out a good way to hook up the wires. Soldering to boards scares me.

                Maybe this will work

                    Very true. even a Radio shag shack will have some thing better.

                      To the people who accidentally turn their warps off during a game... your switch was installed in the wrong place! I sent my warp to Luke and he put in a switch near the hole where the hopper feedneck goes. It is facing the gun and there is no chance I will accidentally bump it. The only issue with its location would be if I set it up for a left-handed player; it might get bumped.

                      As for playing with a warp, I enjoy it immensely. If it were up to me every gun would have the option to be warped with nothing obstructing the view down the barrel.

                        I never looked into it, but I can probably set them up for a lefty. I would need to know ahead of time though because the machining is diffrent on the two halves of the case.

                          Instead of a toggle switch, maybe a slider would be better and not turn off as much?

                          As for my opinion on warps...




                          I've been meaning to do the on/off and led mod but haven't gotten around to it yet... Can someone paint me up a diagram of the switch and led mod?


                          IIRC the regulation system for running the warp off the emag battery was called the "X-power module". I don't see how it would be hard to make if you are electrically adept, though.


                          Me? I can solder... that's about it. I wired a Intelli-switch to my RT Pro. I have a 12V harness but I never use it, too much power draw and I never shoot that fast anyway.

                          I might try the big-cell though, any advantages besides longer battery life? Is it more effecient or something?


                          What I really want to try to do is get a contact board for the 9Vs so I don't have to use the battery clips, just shove batteries in and slide the door closed...

                            I saw some where you can take the contact board out of a revy and retro fit it into the warp...

                              I was a bit curious as to what the reason was for the last pic of your warp that shows no drive band?
