that is a sound activated halo. Empire bought revvy's from VL and put sound activation in them, and made the reloader. They're just doing the same with the halo b.

Well if anyone who has 1 or has shot 1 could post that would be very helpful. Maybe someone who works at a shop or one of the sponsors could time one unloading a podfull or something and we could compare it to a real halo. As I am very interested in the changes in operation compared to the origional halo.
thanks, Deisel

I've heard they can feed 28bps consistently like the HALO can feed 22 consistently.

Yeah I have heard mixed things about them. Some people have said they are slower and others say they are faster. I will see if we can get one into the shop where I work and I will try it out.

Well it kinda looks like a halo ALOT so I wonder if empire is trying to make some money off a product that is already on the market.hmmmm....... :again:

yes the reloader is like a revvy, but instead of an eye it uses sound activation, i have seen them do 16 bps, i used to own one....it will be interesting to see what this reloader B does

I wonder if we'll have better luck with these than most have had with the Halo B.

Well i have had a chance to test one, Just turning on the reg Halo, the Empire one spins much faster in just motor speed. They have been recalled because of some board problems. However when it worked right it fed very fast. I wouldn't say it was any slower than the normal halo. But i did have a breakage (is this a word) issue which is why they recalled them. I could yell at my hopper and it would feed thus crushing the brittle paint. They worked great when they did. I'm sure it will be out soon again, plus the shells were the coolest things in the world they had sparkles in them. I used a blue one. Looked great but didnt work the best, they will be back and better.

I used one a while back, kept up fine, wouldn't go out to buy one though, to me it's just another thing to break, and another thing to pay money to get a new version software installed.

I'm looking foward to picking 1 of these up now that the have the bugs worked out of the board. They initially released a couple at WC and found how they had the motor acitvating whenit wasn't suppoed 2. I like the idea that it is faster than a regular halo, thats something i could utilize with an Hk speed, lol, but I don't realy give a dam that it can sense black paint, I would just make sure I didn't use black paint, no biggie, but I'd be buying it for the speed mostly.
