For all the people who have used the Empire Reloader B with an Angel, why do you think it would work better with the Angel, over a normal Halo B? What I mean is, the problems people have with using Halo's with their Angels are ball breaks due to the force feeding. How does the sound activation change that?

The Empire Hollaback has three power settings and is not as likely to overpower the ballstack as the normal eye-activated versions. The low/med/high settings cause the drive cone to spin approximately 1/3, 2/3, and a complete revolution per shot. The force isn't as strong as regular Hollabacks and are less likely to cause problems. If you use a lowrise, you may want to try the medium and high settings. If you use a midrise or high rise, then then low setting is usually more than enough. So far, so good with my Empire Hollaback on the A4 and Speed!

More test results and video(s) on the way...

If the force ins't as strong, does that make it feed slower?

Yep, exactly what the JP baller said. From what I can tell, the low/med/high determines how long to send the "on" pulse for the motor to spin, which in turn determines the pressure applied directly to the ball stack. I have my Empire Hollaback set to medium because it works great with my Check-It clamping lowrise. The wound up tension is what I need to do quick snapshpots and shoot quick burst of 2-5 shots. Long strings of high ROF isn't a big deal to me, because any Hollaback is fast enough for me during sweetspotting or during coverfire. When the Empire Hollaback is set on High, I'm sure it's faster than any standard reflective eye'ed Hollaback.


JP, how bouts you write yourself some essays, eh? Now I'll know who else to offer stuff to before I offer it to ffry.

Hey Ft57,
Any long term issues with Speed's and the Reloader B? I want to make sure they are good to go before I drop the cash on one.

Steve im considering buying a empire halo and sellin my old halo B due to weight. If you just rock the 4 batteries insted of the 6 does it reduce the halo's speed or just it's battery life?

1. The Empire Hollaback allows you to shoot any color shell paint you want.

2. Normal Hollabacks will not allow you to shoot paint with black shells, black swirls, or dark colored shells.

3. The 4 battery option is definitely great to have. But I would just invest in the Lithium Energizers. The same one that Dynasty Oliver is holding up...



Juggernout,
There is hope, yet. 1. Bfart can get you those accessories/parts at discounted prices. 2. I'm sending you free gear for the inconveniences, cuz I feel badly for you.
Glad to have you on board as an HK Army Affiliate. You'll get all the benefits of your U.S. counterparts.

haah steve I wonder how many times you've posted that agg battery picture, seems like I see it every day. I want to get a new Hollaback really bad becuase the one I bought from a pbn member was sent broken of course I relized this after I put all my agg hk skull and shield stickers on it so now if I get a new halo i'll be Hk Army Supportless.

um might be a dumb question, but plz some1 help me out. My friend who plays nov. pan am, and who just had a speed himself and sold it, told me that a halo will screw with sensi. He told me it wont bend sensi rod or anything like that, but it will damage the switch that the rod sits on top of. I have a empireB already and im lookin into purchasing a speed, just looking for a little help/input.
I've seen a kid open up brand new speed, and brand new halo (dont think it was empire) and the sensi took a dump @ the chrono, not even an entire hopper. So ive seen something first hand.
Also if i need to remove sensi rod to run a halo, what r possibilities of breakin paint?
Thanks
