    Halo or egg ? Opinionzzzz any1?

    Ok I am looking really hard at buying a new hopper. Money isn't an issue. I only want the best for my money.Couple questions.
    1.durability.
    2.any problems with the electronics? Rain, dirt?
    Voice all your opinionz. I want to know good and bad about each item. Or is there any other hoppers out there that is worth getting? HOLLA

    halo

    egg likes to spontaniously explode. Just random pieces will be cracked/missing, each time you pull it out of your bag....+ it's ugly

      Eggs may fall apart but they dont burst into flames like Halo's can (it has really happened before)

      Halo = Faster, better build quality, smaller capacity
      Egg = a bit slower, cheaper, lighter, larger capacity, uses 9 volts.

      Do a search, there have been a couple of threads about this topic.

        if your gonna get a HALO buy al least 5 because the motherboards and motors will decide they dont want to work or evn explode and the little light at the back will just flash colors at you untill your so anry you will want to smash it (thats what i did with mine ) but seriously in the past 2 months my teammate has gone thru 5 of them they just kept frying no he use'es and egg like me and me and him have never been happyer you can always tell when its off or on because they dident cheap out and they put more than one button/swtich on it and a HALO is not really as fast as its cracked up to be but they sure bounce good when you chuck em at concrete.

        final verdict get an Egg save yourself the agrivation.

          ok i would definatley go with a halo or reloader B... the shells are much much stronger...the only advantange to an egg is its board is good but the feed neck and feed cup break constantly and the lid wears down fast or breaks off very easy..half my team had eggs now they have halos..or the apache it is tested for some 20 bps and other than a thin shell i like richochets products!!!!

            Sometimes I wish some random or New company would come out with a new Hopper...that was like 20bps or faster, electronic or some new non-design, and held at least 175-80rds.

            Hmmm... gets me pondering....

              I used to think the same thing but I've come to think that since my pods only hold 140 I don't need anything bigger than 150-160.

              I know it's nice to be able to hold a few more balls at the beginning of the game but I don't know if worth the extra weight to me.

              On the other hand, I would be nice to be able to add a new pod of paint when the hopper was 1/4 instead of basicly completely empty.


              Back on topic...if money isn't an issue then get the Halo. It is simply the best hopper available at this time IMHO.

                Halo, hands down. I had a halo, loved it, but I was stupid, sold it. I now have an egg, it stinks. Looks very bad, the design of it is ugly, refilling it is, I always manage to drop at least 20-30 paint when trying to refill it.

                  Ok now, I am truly biased on this subject for I own a Halo B w/ rip. But in all honesty I would look for a PreBE revvy and put in a Z board. I have seen these on Guam and it is awesome. on my angel it looked kind of weird, but it saved me from a day of watching. I am surprised that no one else has tried this. It is really fast, better then an Apache but not as fast as my Halo but almost.
                  if not that get a halo nothing wrong and it wont turn into a bomb unless prompted.

                    Personally, I say Halo... as long as it won't crush the paint you're using.

                      If your gun has eyes or is not gonna go abouve like 12 or 13.
                      They are alot more reliable than any other hopper on the market, just not as fast as some.

                      If you want the extra speed get a Halo. They do have alot of problems with the electronics but from what ive seen its bettar than my egg was.

                        halo, for shure, eggs are crap, dont feed well and fall apart even if they did, halo is the only hopper i use, cuz its the only thing i cant outshoot (except for a Q or envy, but, those are...differnent and i dont want one) its also higher quality than most hoppers

                          Go with the halo and then get a victory board. Feeds faster than you will ever shoot, easier on teh paint, and less likely to have problems.

                              ive got both

                              evo2 with a z-board
                              and
                              halo b with a v35 board.


                              i have yet to use my egg since ive gotten the halo....you can not compare the two.

                              i had a halo a in the past and it was super crappy, however they seem to have fixed most things because ive yet to have a problem with my new halo.
