So this past 6 months have been relatively dreamy. My A1 has been performing wonderfully after a few trips to Ken.

So long story short;
First, my board was messed up, something wasn't working well with the noid. I sent my gun away to get the board looked at. I was told the noid also broke. My board was recently acting funny again, and odd fidgetty display.

So last sunday my gun just wouldnt shoot. My batteries were at 8v, not low enough to affect the performance of the gun. So i tried turning my eyes off and on as well, then i tried different paints. For some reason my gun would detect paintballs on the display but wouldnt fire.

I can only assume the problem has happened again.

I'm really down, things worked terribly in the beginning but this most recent 6 months were phenomenal. This A1 was my first topline.

I think I may have gotten a lemon.

Also, its serial number is #201, can I assume this was one of the first of its kind? Its red too, maybe one of the first?

201, yeah that's an early model, does it have the gen 2 parts? I got mine about this time last year and it was in the 2600 range. And as for the battery, I've ran to 6.2 v before having any issues so 8v should be plenty. You couldn't turn the eyes off and force it to fire? Could you hear the noid clicking at all?

I tried turning the eyes on and off and I could not fire it at all.

I do have generation 2 parts, which is odd to be, they shouldnt break.

And yes, my noid isn't doing anything, absolutely dead quiet.

Sounds like a solenoid. Recommend contacting Ken and trouble shooting.

Yea I still have Ken's number, if he hasn't changed it in the past 6 or 7 months. I could have always given him a call, just wanted to get the okay, I'm sure he's still a busy man.

Thanks Bob,
