I just got a new Spyder Imagine just a little cheaper eclectronic to play around with and need an electronic hopper the gun can only shoot 14bps so i dont need a hopper that can feed 30bps so whats a decent hopper that can feed atleast 14bps that doesnt cost over $75.00 im looking at a HALO hopper right now only because its the only somewhat decently priced hopper i can find that ive heard real good things about all the other hoppers i havent heard good nor bad... -------------

12V Revolution with X Board is the way to go then.
You can get them cheap, and as long as you don't get a black shell it will hold up pretty well. Feeds at 13 BPS if you install a JMJ Impeller, otherwise it feeds around 10-12. ------------- Which falls faster, a lead ball or your IQ after reading some of these posts? http://www.pennstatepaintball.com" rel="nofollow - PSU Paintball |

Empire Reloader. Probably find them for under $50 now. They are sound activated, and the people I've talked to say they perform better then the HALO.
Edit: I'd also suggest checking out pbreview.com and seeing what other people have to say about the other hoppers. |

| What's wrong with the black shell on the Revvy? Do they crack? If someone can put a link for a good hopper at around 50 bucks or less, thet would be great. I'm thinking I want a 12v Revolution. -Black shell. Where can I find it the cheapest? |

I say just get a Evlution 2 ,it a good hopper and you can always use it on your better gun. the egg hopper is a little big too me but hey it can hold 200 paintball. It also fun just to watch the balls go around and around -------------

| no, halo tsa is a good choice. the revvy, ricochet and reloader are all12-13 bps and your gun is capable of 14 bps. halos have very durable shells to. |

| I never shoot that fast. I conserve paintballs. Halos are expensive anyway. I've read A LOT of bad things about the Revvy's neck breaking. Can anyone clarify this to me? The revvy seems the way to go, though. And nobody has said why the black shells for the revvy are so bad yet. That person said the colors were ok though. I'm confused. |

Dont get the Halo TSA, there is no way it feeds 14 bps because I outshot it like every game with my mech tippmann, also the feedneck snaped. Go for a 12v Revvy. |

Considering that yer lookin fer a mororized hopper, and you already mentioned you dont want one that can do at least 14bps and in what price range are you lookin fer? Or you can cut to the chase by goin to http://www.pbreview.com - www.pbreview.com and look at the motorized hoppers, read up the pros and cons to each one. ------------- Do not steal....the government hates competition!

Feednecks break, yes. I mainly believe that's due to "Oops!" when playing, such as dropping the gun, etc. A Revvy would help, just the 12v with X-board will do good 'nuff. Don't worry about the color- its all the same material just with a different dye. Why someone thinks the black ones are bad is a mystery. Feednecks- buy a 3.00 elbow that has clamps on both ends (screws the tighten metal rings) and tighten it down. Your Revvy shouldn't move back with recoil (biggest problem they have) or fall off.

Yes, the plastic may be the same, but when you dye a plastic in its liquid stage, you change its molecular structure. I believe that the black dye molecules are larger, so when they are forced into the plastic's structure they strain it making a more brittle final hardened plastic product. ------------- Which falls faster, a lead ball or your IQ after reading some of these posts? http://www.pennstatepaintball.com" rel="nofollow - PSU Paintball |

I would say 12v Revo It's cheap and fast enough to feed your Spyder with paintballs.
