Got a little time to make a quick video of the hAir trigger over the weekend.
Video is 5Megs. MPEG 1 format (should be compatable with just about everything)

n-joy!
ps- it is not for sale until protection is fully in place.
***UPDATES ***
4/24/04-
so far:
1) Won't be out for another 6-7 months, if all goes to perfect plan. This will probably be revised in the future, but for now it is what we are looking at.
2) We are currently in negotiations with AGD and if it all gets worked out they will be manufacturing and selling it.
3) Price has been projected by Tom to be $250-$350.
4) Will not be a "drop in mod" to existing frames. It will be an entire frame with the goods integrated into it. Word is it will probably in a frame very much like the Intelliframe.
5) It has been tested to work on RT/Xvalves. It currently does not use or require the ULT. It has not been tested on a classic valve, but *should* work-- how well I dont know.
6) There is no "waiting list" (that I know of). If there is I'm not the one keeping it. Please don't email me asking to buy one of the protypes, unless you have some 7-figures to work with.
*** UPDATE 9/13/04 ***
We now have enough legal fileings in place to start moving forward with these bad boys... but there is still a kink or two in the works. There is another company (who shall remain nameless at this time) who is claiming prior and broader protection. We are in the process of getting more information from them and hopefully work it all out very soon.
In the mean time I have been quitely working on how to install everything into an I-frame, Y-frame, and the Vert frames that are out there. Once all legalities are out of the way, I hope to at least be making these myself (by hand for now) and have some available for sale before the end of the year. Negotiations are still in effect with AGD, but AT THIS POINT there is a good chance they will not be picking it up. This is subject to change. Please do not flood Tom with requests.. there are reasons for every decision.
I am trying to keep the price around $250 (this would include the triggerframe), and offer some sort of a tradein discount on your existing grip if you send it in.
I cant really comment more on the legals yet. I will, however, say that the "other company" is not the G-force guys with the Super-68 marker.
out!
*** UPDATE 11/01/04 ***
Yep.. been a while!
As you all probably well know, ProTeam products is the company that we have "legal issues" with.
They are claiming to own all pneumatic triggers, so we are definatly affected by this.
From a business standpoint, there are a few options we have to proceed forward-- All of them take time and some of them require lots of $$$.
I can't comment further than this, except to say that, you would have all had hAirs in your hands right now.
