What type of hopper?

The gun I bought came with a regular hopper. Is it worth paying $35-$50 for an electronic hopper? What are the pros/cons?

Yes it is worth it, you'll shoot more balls quickly. What type of gun do you have? I think a exmpire reloader b will suffice its only $50. feeds 12-13bpm. the only cons i can think of is the battery thing.

depends on the gun. in most cases, its definitely a plus. unlike said above, it does not make you shoot faster, it just keeps your hopper from jamming up when shooting at a higher rate of speed.

VL revolution
or Empire reloader

I have a piranha e-force gti (brand new, just got it ) and it comes with a normal hopper (just a plastic bowl, no nothing on it). Yeah, my friend told me it prevents you from having to shake your gun every now and then from jam-ups, which can get you out, if you're unlucky.

Thanks alot guys, I plan on getting the Viewloader Revolution. I just saw this hopper though, and even though I'm not going to buy it, do you actually think it works?

I'm very skeptical of it. I can't see how adding a cone in the hopper will help balls feed faster.

Its still limited by the fact that A. the balls will eventualy stack in a way causing them not to feed. B., its still limited by how fast theyll drop, where as a halo will puch them down. The revvy would be much better than that.
