Hey, thanks a lot hermano. Will do so shortly

rediculous

I ordered mine Monday, they said they will have them in Thursday and ship it out so we will see how they work.

Aluminum shells would cook your paint.

Possibly, but how long do you keep paint in your hopper?

And for never breaking another freaking HALO shell again (tonite I need to replace mine for paintball on Fri night), I could live with losing 150 paintballs every now and then cause I forgot to take them out.

Cool. I'd like to see a good review. If possible can you attempt to determine if it has any effect on speed or battery life?

Aren't the shells already made out of Lexan (same material as those unbreakable nalgene bottles)? If so, I dont think a material change is in order, but rather a design change. Nalgene bottles owe a good amout of their strength and unbreakability to their cylindrical shape.... Perhaps redesigning the shape of the halo shells would be a better solution?

My cone and knob came in today (pix in first post). I am very pleased with the crafstmanship, they both look very nice. They also managed to keep the cone weight to a minimum.

Cant wait to get them in/on my Halo and see how they work!

yay now i can have a $200 hopper

only 200$? Just think off all those people that purchased the original HALO then had to upgrade to software version gazillion each time it was released and then the rip-a-ma-jig to correct even more problems.

Ya know what would have been nice? Free software upgrades to correct our programming problems....yea...now that is a way to stand behind a product.

ok, sorry about the hijack. Thanks to MD/ST for the new drive cone. A great idea guys !

angelguy, yeah i agree

upping this thread becasue i broke one of the paddles on my drivecone yesterday(2 year old halo been through like 3 people)

not sure how it happened but it resulted in alot of ball breaks

so does somone who have tried these have anything to say about them?

[ilikePB]

I have one on my Reloader B and it works great.

well....it is just a drive cone that will not break so everything I have heard has been really good......well...other than odyssey voiding your warranty if you are using it. It appears paintball companies get really pissed when you "fix" their products....LOL
