This may have already been discussed.  If not which do you think is better for the A5, Response Trigger or E-Grip.  Why?

I got R/T b/c its cheaper and I guess impler, Plus from what Ive heard some fields dont allowed electronics but idk if thats true. I just like the mechanics of the R/t more than the "simplicity" of the E-grip I guess.

Response triggers are illegal at most fields and in all tournaments due to their capacity to sweet-spot or go full auto.

Go with the e-grip just as effective but legal most places.

u can play at fields with the rt if u allow them to adjust the rt to rid them their worries (i had 2 do it before) then when the days over u can sweetspot it again for fields that allow rt....rt is great because no elctronics to mess u up so rt>e-grip

If I were you I would get the E-grip becasue the e-grip has mutiplie modes and you can not use the r/t in tourneys.

One of my reasons for going to the e-grip is to conserve air.  If I go with the e-grip i should be able to play longer. Right?

Also how would I tweak my response trigger, so it will work better and more efficient.

The E-Grip will not use any less air that the R/T.

You "sweetspot" the R/T by turning the knob/screw on the side of the grip-frame in and out until you achieve Trigger Bounce which gives you a "full-auto" effect.

I thought the rt ran off of the air, and the e-grip ran off of a battery.

Nitro tanks aren't measured in ounces. They're measure in CU (cubic units - being the size of the tank), and psi (being the internal pressure of the tank). And fills are about the same as CO2, maybe a little more. Usually around 5-10 bucks.
