Could this be the future of paintball?
I found this on *******, check this out.
Could this be the Future of paintball?
Quote:
The EVolt™ paintball marker is powered by a rechargeable 18 volt battery pack. The battery not only powers the cycling operation of the marker, but actually generates the compressed air required to launch the paintballs. Air tanks not included... and not needed.
The entry-level, first generation EVolt™ paintball marker is currently capable of cycling at a rate of over six paintballs-per-second with velocities up to the "industry standard" minimum of 300 feet-per-second. A fully charged battery gives over 500 shots at a consistent velocity. The battery may be recharged in approximately 90 minutes, and can be replaced in seconds. The ambidextrous "Bull-Pup" design includes a picattinny sight rail, removable clamping feed neck, "Timmy" barrel threads, angled foregrip and lockable velocity adjustment. Accessories are currently being developed.
Ok...maybe I shoulda made myself clear...I never said that this **** marker is the future of paintball. I'm just saying the technology could help our sport. Think about it before you get all mad at me.

Yeah, I guess I'll have to be bringing 1000 charged batteries with me to the field if I ever use that thing. I play back, I'll never be able to deal with 500 paintballs a battery, forget that.
