Fast, easy to use, reliable, small and light, Look
Cons:
rechargeable battery not supplied
Finally got my brand new Spyder Electra '09 this week. This is my first marker in the last 2 years, because I quitted. Now that I want to make a comeback, I needed a marker that perform just as well as my old VS2, and that can be used with Co2, because I moved and now it is more complicated to get a 68/4500 tank filled (got to do 35 minutes in car to reach a place where it can be filled). So I sold my VS2, and now here's the new black Electra '09.
First part - home test Feel it
The new Electra feel anything but cheap. It's very solid, all metal, and everything was tight out of the box. It's smaller and lighter than ever (and that is noticable). I really feel that I will be able to move around fast, and in some tight place with this marker.
This marker is small, and personally, I'll have to learn to play with a marker that small. My hands get really close together, but since I have small hands, I'll be fine. What is nice is that there's alot of place for my fingers to move and walk the trigger, even with gloves on.
I was used to my infinity trigger on my VS2, and moving to the Electra trigger feels unnatural to me. It's a blade style trigger, I have never tried this before. However I think I'll be able to learn to walk it just as fast as my VS2. It is not as comfy as the VS2, but it's lighter and smaller, so I think things got eqal here.
Test it
Got some old paintballs, Co2 tank on, Vl eye force. I think this is really representative of a popular set up that tend to be right now. First I heard a little issssshh near the ASA, when I realized that my tank o-ring has been pinched (even if it's brand new). Got another one, and everything is fine.
The only word I found is WOW. This marker is really nice to shoot, nicely balanced. I got used to the trigger really fast, and the LEAP board is so easy to use, with really clear info in the mode you currently use. By the way, there's 3 modes available on the Electra : Semi-auto, PSP ramping, Millenium ramping. All of them just work perfectly, even with Co2. I've been able to shoot in semi just as fast as I shoot in ramping mode.
The stock 2 pieces barrel shoots fine, I don't plan to get another one. Actually, it is prolly the best stock barrel I've ever tried on a spyder (exept the VS2).
The Electra and Pilot are the first spyders that can be use with a regular 9V (since 2008). However, I really recommend to get a charger and recharchable 9.6V battery. And there's a problem here : why Kingman did not supply this with the marker ? I really think this is a mistake from them, and I hope they will fix this next year with new models.
The Electra comes with a clamping feedneck, that hold my VL eye force (heavier than Vlo JR) very solid. However you will need an allen wrench to tighten your loader. This is more solid, but less convinient to use.
The ON/OFF ASA is really nice to use, nicer than the VS2. I can turn it on or off with a tank on, which is something I was not able to do with the VS2. It's also doing is job pretty well, releasing pressure before I removed the tank.
Clean it
As usual, this spyder is just as easy to clean as any other spyders I've ever used. The bolt is delrin (no lub needed), and there's only one moving o-ring to take care on the striker. That means this marker is really easy to clean, everything can be done under 10 minutes. Eyes plates are in aluminium, which is great, and screws will be hard to break, just use the right allen wrench and you'll have no problem.
The grip is easy to open. However, the grip is not wrapped around : both side are plastic, with rubber on it, they feels really comfy to me, but routing the wires becomes really important if you don't want to get water in grip. Happily, this job is really easy to do. I had absolutely no problems routing the cables, and everythings just feel fine inside.
This marker is really easy to use and clean. I will not have problems to recommend it to new players, as well as for mid players, because it performes really well. I think I'll love it, and I'll forget my VS2 really fast .

I have had this marker now for a year. When I first started playing paintball I had bought a Spyder E99. I had quit the sport for about 2 and a half years and started again with the Electra. The marker gets lots of comments and looks at games. Some people are quick to tell you it's a piece of crap(Usually Tippmann/Woodsball players) others give it all the praise in the world.
My experience with this marker has been A+. Works great in woodsball and speedball and has been very reliable. The stock barrel is alright however I do recommend to buy a better one. I use a Dye precision 10" barrel.
Great for beginners and players starting back up. The price I paid is also in Canadian.

ive been a part of the Sypder Community for may years. My first gun ever was the sypder rodeo and i swore by it. Never had any problems with it, so i decided to stick with the Spyder line. i read many reviews on the new sypder pilot and electra. the pilot consisted only with a 1 piece barrel and no asa knob and no good look to it. i decided to go with the Electra. Right out of the box it looked mint. shot mint and felt mint. i was good to go. My first day in the field i noticed that the magnetic response wasnt responding quick enough. I did mess with the trigger adjustements but nothing that could affect the magnetic response. Sooner or later the gun just wouldnt shoot with any paintballs in it. My guns solenoid was shot and nothing i could do. i called Spyder and they gave me a hard time until i asked to speak with the manager. He was very apologetic and decided to send me a new board and a complimentary jersery for aggravation. I install it and it seems fine for the next 50 shots then realize its doing the same thing. Another half hour call and now they ask what battery im using. i was using a standard coppertop duracell, interstate and ultra life. Neither of them were "strong enough" to power the gun. i was forced to buy their battery and charger. Now that i have it, it works great but bad call with selling it seperate Spyder. (might want to fix the wording in the manual "works on any premium/alkaline battery) this is a beginner to novice gun. its fair in the woodsball fields but i wouldnt necesarily recomend it for the speedball field, good or not. doesnt really stand up to its standards and its hard to keep up with the game unless your good at what you do. I'd give it 3 1/2 to 4 stars. nothing pretty

got my electra of ebay for $171 and it came with an evo3 and a ninja air 48 3000. the electra is deffinantly a spyder used it on an indoor field and the only gun the was louder was my friends pilot. the board is good for the price and the trigger is very easy to adjust. the on off asa isnt bad but the nob is hard to turn if ur hands are even little oily. 2 peice barrel is a plus however the bolt can stick and like i said this thing is really loud

Love the as on/off. The two piece barrel is easy to clean and is more accurate than any other spyder barrel. I highly recommend putting a smart parts all american on though. The board is awesome, tadao has always been good. Highly recommend for your 1st or 2nd marker if your new to the game. Has Millenium and PSP.
The cons are its kinda load and the barrel is really innacurate (not new to spyders..). It says you can use co2 but only if you change the o ring on the hose side of the AS. The delrine bolt also gets stuck when you go to remove it sometimes which is annoying. 25 bps is total bull even with the upgraded board. 6 BPS for semi is pretty awesome though.
Overall Its a great value but beware of a few mishaps here and there.

light, fast, great looking, pretty acurate, has ey
Cons:
may chop some paintballs every once a match
This marker is in a way, awesome! first off, its realy light(gun only). its pretty fast too it goes about 18 bps the box says 25 but i think they ment with an upgraded board. it shoots accuratly with the stock 2 piece barrel. You have 3 mods(semi, ramp psp, ramp melenium) and this gun also have eyes wich prevent some paintballs from breaking as much. But the bad thing about it is that it chops paint sometimes. every game i play(a couple of hours) it only breaks a couple of paintballs and the other thing is that it is anoying to clean sometimes but you get used to it. Finaly I would recommend this to player who want to upgrade to a e-marker or that the dont want to spend alot on a marker.

the only problem i had with this gun was when i got it i started using 9V's in it and the eyes started failing and the gun wouldnt shoot. i found out that you need to use really good 9V's or get the spyder/kingman rechargeable 9.6volt. other than that great gun for the price
