lazy mans go to hopper?

[blackdeath1k]

OK. I'm toying with the idea of getting another FF hopper for me for next summer. But I'm lazy when it comes to my hopper. I really want to just hit the switch and it work. Don't want to screw with settings. Sooooo. What is the recamended lazy mans go to FF hopper?

I do know my wife's invert halo 2 in stock settings does not feed fast enough to keep up with heavy fire. Yet I never messed with settings on it. As it ended up on my wife's marker. Not mine. And she is perfectly happy with it as is. So I've been back running my trusty fool proof revy. Did jest trade a prophesy as I decided all the setting stuff was more than I wanted to mess with.

This is all ironic since electrical design is a big part of my day job.

rotor. only adjustment is a tension screw but i think most set it to flush and go. its the only forcefeed hopper i will use.

Honestly, I'm not a huge Dye fan (especially their markers). But as ugly as the hoppers are, a dye rotor is always my go to if I have one that is not sold as soon as I get it. The plastic on the hopper is solid stuff, not like the cheap plastic on almost all empire hoppers. The hopper has one external button and so so simple, press the botton and there you go. You should be able to pick one up for around $80-90. I used to get so tired of fiddling with halos and I can't tell you how many eggy doors I have broken. Buy a rotor you won't be disappointed. Oh, I have used many spires as well, I like em a little better than the dye b/c it is lighter and the shape is more appealing. The design is not as durable as the rotor, but the company has stood behind it's products every time I have had an issue.

+1 for the Rotor.

Hit the on button and go. Althogh, I will say that the Rotor is picky on paint. Picky, as in dimpled, or paint that's slightly swollen might give you some issues.

rotor is easy...valken vmax is easy.

Pinokio speed or spire. Pretty much hassle free.

Yup rotor all the way,good battery life,very tuff and just hit the button and go.
I have loaned out my eggs, halo's and a couple of the hard plastic revys and usually got them back with something busted but not so for my rotors.the only issue is the cost of buying a new one,usually 150$ to 199$

Its funny, when the Rotor first came out I said I would never get one and continued to rock my revy on my x-mag. Now that I have one I don't use anything else, there are so many things that make it such a great hopper. Its light, fast, super reliable, uses the oldschool super durable revy style plastic.

Rotor... Keeps up with all the settings on my Xmag and Cyborg. I haven't even wanted to try anything else unless it was a Revvy to slow down my markers.

[going_home]

Sold all the Rotors when I got the Spires.

Hands down the better loader.

i'm surprised at the number of people who like the rotor. i found that mine jammed fairly often and i'm tugging on the anti jam like a fool. never had an issue with jamming on my speed or spire. and if you're looking for light weight, pinokio speed for sure.

I've never had issues with my rotor. I use it straight out of the box and have never adjusted anything. Just throw batteries in, turn it on and go.

my .02:
I currently have a Scion (a halo + Z2 baby), I had a rotor (sold), and I used someones Spire (not the 260) this weekend when I couldnt get my Scion to work...i think it was operators error!

I would take a rotor if I had to make a hopper purchase again. Easy to operate, clean, and take apart. Like Skorpion said, I never changed a thing OOTB. The spire would be a close #2. It has a very low profile.

It's not even worth contributing to this thread at this point, but Rotor all the way.

I haven't had a break in it yet, but if I did, ridiculously easy to pull apart and clean without any tools. One button operation. No other modes to worry about. It just works.

Switched to a rotor this year. I feel like a fool for waiting so long. The rotor has been fantastic.
