what is the advantages and disadvantages to a bouncebeam eye and a breakbeam eye?

Bounce beam eyes,you have one eye.It has an emitter and reciever in the same eye.The emitter emits the beam which will bounce of the ball when there is one and it will go back to the reciever and let you fire.Sometimes it wont work well with dark shelled paint.

Breakbeam eyes have two pairs of eyes.One for an emitter and one for a reciever.It tells theres a ball in the chamber when the ball breaks the beam between the two eyes.I personally prefer breakbeam eyes.

Overall,eyes are to prevent chops,and help you fire faster without chopping.

so there is no real advantage to either,? it boils down to personal preference?

One advantage to the breakbeam eyes is that they wont have a problem with dark shelled paint.

i would go with a breakbeam eye, but if money is a problem, go with the cheapest one. Theres not tah much of a difference.
