Here's a review on all the new crap I bought in 1 day, which has now led to me beingcompletely broke and bumming lunch money off my friends.
Ok here we go, on all $1411 of all my new equipment, here's my review on it.
Dye Lock-Lids (6)
Best pods ever. I filled them up to the rim, held it upside down and shook it pretty damn hard, to see if the lid would pop open. Not even close. But still VERY easy to open with just a click of the finger. Plus the fact that they hold 160 instead of 120-140, and still fit in my harness kicks even more ass. As for price, worth the extra $2 or so that you pay for them.

Trinity UniMount
It sucks. It's tough to turn on/off. it comes loose after a couple hundred shots. It was a ***** to wrap the teflon tape and get it to not rip up in the threading. Buy a Check-It UniMount over this one.

Redz 3.3 Dimensions Harness + Comfort Belt
The Harness
Awsome, looks beat any other harness (IMO), and it holds 3 locklids easy. It's a bit tough to get the other 3 in, but if I really needed 6 pods in one game, I could fit them. Obviously I can't say how durable it actually is, but it looks like it will last a good long time of rough play.
The Belt
Everyone knows about the redz comfort belt... It is uncomparable. Best belt for a harness, easiest to adjust, best fit, most comfortable, period.

Proto Switch Mask
Looks is obviously opinion, but the switch is def top 3 for looks in my book. Only mask I like better for looks is the invision, but when it comes to performance, I'd take the proto.
The bottom half of it is flexible rubber so you have a much better chance of paint bouncing rather than breaking on it, keeping you alive longer. The lense is a bubley shape giving you much more perefrial (sp?) vision, plus it looks cooler than normal flat lenses. It's easy as hell to take out compared to most masks, which means much faster/easier cleaning. The foam is comfy as hell too
Downside is it fogs a little bit at the bottom if you breathe hard on it, not a big deal but still there.

68/4500 LP Preset Angel AIR w/ Lok Socks
First tank I got had a leak and got less than 400 shots dry-firing using my 05 speed. I got it replaced for free, and this one is great. at the rate I'm using it up, I should get roughly 850 shots. Havent had a problem with recharge rate so looks good to me. PLus the lok socks just make my whole gun look that much sexier (if thats even possible)

Halo B
Looks great, feeds fast, feeds consistantly, seems to be doing ok despite complaints about angel ball detents. But there are definatly downsides to the halo.
Negative:
-Bigger than my angel
-Heavier than my angel
-takes 6 friggen AA batteries
-the battery holder rattles around inside (fixed it with electrical tape)

And of course, the 05 Speed! :headbang:
Looks..... You tell me, I mean cmon they are
imp:
Performance. I'll put it plain and simple. It shoots darts, lasers, ropes, strings, lanes, lines, whatever you wanna call it. It's accuracy is definatly a plus. A bit more of an arc than a cocker, but that is due to the soft face bolt, which on the other hand is much more efficiant on brittle paint.
ROF, you've all seen the video, as fast as a hopper will feed and your fingers can move.
Customizabilty (sp?), the trigger can be so finely tuned, anyone will be happy (if your not you should consider suicide please). Dont like the 90º frame? get the 45º as an option instead, or buy both so you can switch between them. Sure a kit is a good idea, but the stock barrel will whip ass anyway (just dont use anything higher than .688 paint).
Weight, size, etc. Find me a smaller, lighter (mass produced) gun and I'll send you a free case of paint. It weighs almost nothing and it's smaller than the hopper... Hell paintball pistols are bigger than it.
Reliabilty. No problems yet, trigger is a bit stiff but who cares it still rips better than an Eblade1, and at least as good as an E2 (better IMO). Eyes never fail, feedneck kicks ass, no leaks, bolt takes under 3 seconds to remove, field stripping.
Downsides?
-WIthout volumisers, when you shoot over about 12-13bps (rough estimate) it gets some real kick.
-trigger is a bit stiff (drop in kit will be out soon though to fix that)
-I hate installing macrolines lol
-The silver wasnt in stock, but thats ok Im liking the black more and more
Overall, good HEAVILY, I mean MASSIVELY outweighs the bad.
Reccommended Ups: Medium Volumiser on the right side. Drop in kit for trigger when that is released.
