    reloaders don't actually HEAR sound, it's actually a small vibration sensor on the board.

      Shameless Plug for Synergy firmware for Reloader B

      With the new firmware ("Synergy") I've just developed, you can have adjustable sound sensitivity with your original Reloader B (not B2), in addition to other new features.

        I actually does use a microphone (electret mic) as the sound/vibration sensing element, and will pick up either if their magnitude is great enough.

            Not as much but they do break, near the battery door. I've also had to replace the raceway because of stress fractures causing the eyes to malfunction, all the hoppers have a caveat to them.

                I did think about the Empire B2, but I wasn't sure about the sound activated thing, so I guess I have three choices now
                I was kind of worried about a lag that the sound activation might have, but it sound like that is a non-issue. I think my other friend has a Empire I will ask him if I could give it a try on Saturday.

                At first I wanted a Pulse, but since they stopped making them and they are so new I am not comfortable with them from a reliability stand point.

                  Hey, is the only difference b/w the Vlocity Jr. and regular Vlocity the control chip, all the mechanical are the same?
                  That means I can buy a Jr. now and if its not fast enough get the Gangstar chip.

                    Size, the Vlocity can carry 200 rds, and has adjustable motor tension from no tension at all (eye mode only) up to a maximum setting of 7 or 8.

                      Yeah but isnt that controlled buy the chip?
                      What is the size difference between the two?

                        The jr carries 140 rds, has only one speed setting, you can upgrade to the gangstar chips on both models.

                          Actually the jr. holds 180... and I have both vlocity jr and v35... I use the jr. way more then the halo its lighter, smaller. I run pure semi so im not going to break the 20 bps cap on the jr. if you think you might top that you can get a gangstar chip. All and all if you are a front player go for the jr. if you play mid or back go for the halo or reg. vlocity. And to pick between those two is do you care about weight, looks, or battery life.

                            If you can find one, get a PULSE. I love mine, new shells straight from HQ and all. No breakage/crackage issues with'm yet.

                                The Pulse's worry me b/c since Draxxus stopped making them do they still offer support if you have a problem, and b/c they are so new to the market, i really can judge the reliability. Plus they are expensive, I am ordering a Vlocity Jr. on Wendsday.
