AO: We are back from the dead... again! After an 18 day outage, we are finally alive and well. Who knew how complicated updating software/databases from 2008 would be. I still have alot of tweaks to make, but my main goal was getting everything patched and updated to 2026.
Vbulletin 6 has changed alot since 2008 so we will have a ton of new features to dig into.
The eggy 2 and the no rise is a great combination. I just used one on my retro mag with a no-rise and lvl 10 last weekend and didn't have one problem. With the speed of the loader all the way up i couldn't get the lvl 10 to kick in even if i tried and that was fanning the trigger at close to 13 bps. They don't even look all that bad on the gun either and the profile isn't that much bigger than a a revy. As far as them being forcefed I'm not positive but from what I've heard they are but not as good as the halos. But the performance was good enough that I'm going to get an eggy2 over a halo b just because of the price and weight differnce.

me and manike discussed this, and came to the conclusion that drop tests are useless for the egg. it reacts to an empty feed neck, like a rev, therefore the first shots are STILL GRAVITY FED.
so, although its great at keeping the neck full, definately more so than a rev, it is still, in essence a gravity dependent loader. BOOOOO! *throws tomato*

Maybe i missed something with the halo...but how does it differ? Isnt that what BE is sueing them over...they use an eye to detect a paintball missing?
im not quite sure, but i believe the eye in a HALO detects the movement of the stack (seems unlikely, anybody know for sure?). this, combined with the springloaded drive cone allows the paint to be under constant pressure, thus the FIRST shot (and all subsequent shots) is force fed.
"The Fine Print: Discontinue use if your eyeballs suddenly get way smaller."
no it will not. the evo will feed my emags fine. one is a low rise and one is a micro emag. i have not had any trouble with them miss feeding. they also work well on angles.

Are the balls able to fall freely from an Eggo2 like the first few in a revvy thats not on(unlike Halo which wont)? Is that why the first shots are always gravity fed, because the eye hasnt applied any "push to them" ?

The HALO senses resistance in the motor when it pulses. You can actually take the eye out of a HALO (the belt drive models) and it will still feed.
The eye is part of a feedback system, and I believe the motor is slowed down when the eye detects paint, but the eye isn't necessary, and it doesn't wait for a gap in the feed-stack before it starts feeding (the paint is under a constand light spring pressure, so it feeds as soon as the breech is open.)
See you on the field,
