Dye R2 Electronic Paintball Loader

Apart from the counter's beep, I made no changes to this loader. I chose the r2 primarily because it was the only loader available in tiger stripe, but I've grown to appreciate how dependable and capable it is. Yes, some guys prefer their spires or tfx, but I've never had a jam or any issues while running reball. As a scenario player, I appreciate the ability to switch between 200 and 300 characters. In a fraction of a second, we've gone from zero to 260. I've used it on a variety of markers that I or friends own, and it's never failed me.

This hopper, as well as a spire 4, are both mine. I have both a CS2 Pro and a Geo 4 on my computer. On both markers, I've placed both hoppers. Both keep up with a 20-second ramp. 25bpm. br>br>If you expand the hopper, Dye can hold a few more balls and feeds them faster, but the spire had no trouble keeping up with both of my markers. br>br>Spire 4 has a lower profile and angles that make it less likely to be hit, as well as more durable plastic, easier disassembly and cleaning, and a more solid overall feel. br>br>I'm not interested in purchasing another Dye hopper. The spire 4 is the only way to go.

This loader has a lot of volume, which I like. This loader is a must because of the marker I'm running with; I'm new to the marker world, so I had trouble taking it apart at first and almost threw it out the window. But perseverance paid off, and I discovered that it was a very simple and straightforward task. The loader's neck, which goes into the marker, could be a little thinner and longer so that it clears the iron sights' field of view.

The hopper was great at first use, as you can see from the rest of the review. When I tried to put the top shell in, the inner plastic cracked on both sides, so I did the regular cleaning maintenance. It's extremely fragile, and when I returned it to trade my gun for it, they only gave me half of my money back. The item is significantly heavier than the spire I received in its place. When you have to open it to clean it on a regular basis, this thing should not break so easily for the money. I opened it about 5 or 6 times before using it, and each time it was difficult to close and felt fragile. When I tried to put it back on after cleaning it the first time, it snapped. This hopper should be avoided at all costs. It works well and quickly, but it is heavy and prone to breakage if not properly maintained. Unfortunately, I didn't take any photos, but I've never had a problem with Amazon returns. My gun, however, was broken, used, and the box was open, according to the trader. They will do anything to avoid returning the full value and only giving 50%. I don't think it's entirely my fault that the machine malfunctioned. I recently purchased a spire 3, which is fantastic. Even the second spire is fantastic. It just isn't equipped with the little extras like lights and a spring tray. The spire two is also a lot less expensive.

So, this is what it looked like when it was taken out of the package. The batteries are not included. I didn't realize something was wrong until I loaded it up with paintballs and it wouldn't feed the last drop. The batteries were exposed in such a way that I thought it was strange. When I opened my other dye loader, I noticed that it has a plate that feeds the paint in the back. On Monday, I'll contact the seller to see if we can work out a solution. Aside from that, this device looks and functions flawlessly.

It looked like it took a good 20 minutes of fumbling and a pinched palm to put the two halves back together. Yes, I read the directions and yes, I watched a video tutorial. I'm dreading the fact that I'll have to replace the batteries once more. br>br>While the loader itself is in good working order, replacing the batteries should not be too difficult.

He's never used a paint chopper before. It is very straightforward. Simple to work with. This is without a doubt the best speed fed hopper I've ever used. This is the only thing I'll be using! If you can afford it, I strongly suggest this hopper. It can hold its own against any paintball marker on the market.

I'm getting back into paintball after a long hiatus, and I've decided to go with a Dye setup (Rize Maxxed, Rotor R2) because I really like both of them. br>br>The loader is incredible; it keeps up with the gun's rate of fire, I didn't think maintenance was too difficult for a beginner, and the carbon fiber finish is stunning. Only one ball broke out of 2,000, and I'm not sure if it's because of how the Rize fire rate was set up. br>br>Like many others, I have complaints. The loader appears to be built on a budget. When I disassemble it to clean or change the settings, I have the impression that the plastic on the sides will easily break. The red lock switches on the middle part of the loader are made of plastic and can break if not re-positioned correctly. They have a chance of snapping off while assembling. I made this error, and one of the locks now has a small white crease on it. br>br>This took a little longer than I expected, but I'm happy with the loader overall; I've just learned to be more cautious when cleaning. For the price, the critical parts should have been made of more durable materials.
