In a few weeks I'm going to purchase an Invert mini. I need help choosing a hopper for it though. I am torn between the Halo Belt driven w/ rip drive and the VLocity Jr. I am leaning towards the Halo because of the constant humming the Vlocity jr makes. Does the Halo make that constant humming noise while not being shot? It would get annoying during woodsball games. Are there any issues with the Halo that I should know before purchasing it? Is it prone to problems? Are there any reasons I should choose the Vlocity jr over the halo? Thanks, -250 ------------- I'm Thinkin Arby's |

Vlocity Jr.
Halo Bs are known for breaking down and having weak shells. Vlocity Jr.s also have better boards available. -------------

Sorry  *smacks head on desk* I thought a hopper wouldn't really fall under a customization category, oh well. Thats why I posted here along with the rest of the non-gun related threads.I am mostly looking for reliability, so maybe the VLocity Jr would be the better choice. I would just have to ignore the humming the motor makes. ------------- I'm Thinkin Arby's |

The halo is silent when not in use. I love mine. |

i just got a halo b for my mini works great ^^ my opinion is there are to many variables for an empire b to go off because it is sound activated were the halo is activated by eyes -------------  if you put 500 dollars into an A5 it is still an A5

My Empire B-2 is excellent, even with my deadly quiet 'cocker and DMLCD setups (J&J ceramics are great aren't they!) it feeds constantly without any issues. The three speed settings are also great in comparison to the Halo.
If course, http://www.ansgear.com/Hard_Corps_Torque_Paintball_Loader_Black_p/torqueblack.htm - ANSgear.com has Torque loaders in stock for $89 right now. ------------- <Removed overly wide sig. Tsk, you know better.> |

Vlocity Jr. Theyre cheaper, faster, MUCH lighter, and stronger.
Empire B2s and Halo Bs are the same thing made by the same company. ------------- Indeedly |
