No, turn the screw out till flush with the top of the LPR cap. Once done, turn in 2 full turns.

EGO10 takes the standard bbss or the laser. All Planet Eclipse EGOs, ETEKs and GEOs have the same eye set.

when tank pressure is very low basically on the edge of zero my ego 11 leaks out od the front hole under the lpr very slightly is this normal and just because there is not enough pressure in the tank to fully pressurize the marker? like to bleed off the little air left inthe marker or something?

They are not available anymore but you can install an EGO7/8 in it but you need to use the EGO7/8 manifold. PM me if you need details.

I have this issue with the training mode.
When I set it my geo3 to training mode with the rof cap off, the bps peak/actual screen doesn't refresh unless I switch screens.

I've tried changing the battery, and resetting the board. But the issue
still persists.

I'm posting here simply because I haven't gotten a response in the geo forum.

And bill, are you the dude who goes to boston paintball to tech stuff?

I have an 06 PEVS Ego that started having issues. It was shooting fine, but recently stopped functioning correctly. It seems like the bolt is not cycling all they way forward which doesnt allow the ram to make full contact with the valve. I have a fresh battery, LPR is flush, and the board has been set to factory settings. The issue goes away if I up the dwell to 14ms+, but that seems to just be a band-aid for the problem. I also took everything apart, tried a different LPR, a different HPR, different ram, checked the QEV's, everything... It will only function if I max out the dwell. Do you have any clue what the problem may be?

Thanks in advance.

EDIT:

I ended up taking my whole entire solenoid apart down to the armature to make sure that wasnt binding. I ended up removing the o-rings from the pilot valve and spool housing and then blew everything out with my air compressor. I made sure to hit every single hole on the housing to clear any clogged channels. Wiped it down, reassembled it, and now my Ego is shooting great again.

If anyone is having a similar issue, shoot me a PM and I'll try to help you out.

Hey Bill thx for ur support.

Got an EGO11 with almost 15 cases on it and while i was playing with settings (currently at 3/8 , dwell 15 , 2 cycles in ) noticed that when i was increasing the velocity from the inline there was a leak from that little hole on the grip. Also had very weird numbers on chrono ( 240 -280 ). Couldnt get my velocity higher than 275-280 since there was that air coming out from the reg's hole.
Also when i pop my tank i can hear a small leak near the hose on reg side which goes away on first shot or after a couple of secs.

Any ideas which o-ring might be or if there is another problem?

Thx in advance

Hello fellas....I am first and foremost a angel shooter. I happened upon a etek 1 that needed some hose and a battery...I then noticed the solenoid has 3 barbs on it and that there is one port closest to the solenoid that appears to be missing a part...I can shoot a pic if needed, but I guess my question is:

are there 3 barb fittings on the etek 1 or is this the wrong solenoid for this gun. I put a battery in and the noid clicks and the eyes work. I really want to get this thing rolling so I can make a decision to buy a newer pe gun or not. Thank you for your time. Brad

Usually the issues with an EGO11 velocity is the battery, regulator seat or the LPR piston. Change the battery regardless what the gauge states. Check the LPR piston seat. Make sure it is intact.

Got tired of waiting for a reply and fixed my Ego myself. Borrowed a friends 06 ego and traced my problem to the noid. I ended up taking my whole entire solenoid apart down to the armature to make sure that wasnt binding. I ended up removing the o-rings from the pilot valve and spool housing and then blew everything out with my air compressor.

Sorry but I was away for the last few days. The only issue left would have been the solenoid. Dirty or on its way out.

Change the #8 oring inside the HPR adjuster piston body and flip the regulator seat upside down. The oring is a pain to get too. Be very patient and do not use a pick to install. Use a blunt object.

There are three barbs. The front on is the input. The rear two are the outputs that go to the rammer banjo fittings.

Swap the HPR piston. Sounds as if the seal has gone bad.
Other things it could be is the solenoid is dirty or the rammer orings need to be changed.

I ordered and recieved the banjos- etek is changing my "angel only" mentality. I paid 50- for it and it shoots as good as a 400- angel. I'm sold.
