Looks like something I'll be very interested in if field testing is on the positive side, and a decent price point.

Sorry if I make you sad. Added a video. Notice that the drive shaft never stop or change rotation direction when the rotor reverse.

My apologies for the grammar comment, I was just teasing a bit, but I am guilty of being a stereotypical American and thinking "everyone" speaks English as a first language.

Its okay buddy, a lot of people on Pbnation tend to not look at the website, so Im of the opinion that you should put all of your pertinent information in the post you make, just so everyone sees exactly what you're offering. As far as it being a bit late, I still have buddies that use the Halo/Reloader series, and theres always the Invert loader. Though I am curious as to why yo havnt adapted it for use in a Prophecy?

halos are still a great loader. they just take more time to take apart than the newer loaders on the market. Not everyone can drop $150+ on something new. This product seem interesting to me and still relevant

A very good question. Halo, Reeloader B1 & B2 and Halo Too is an old design that is sealed to circuit boards and gears. Will also be easier to clean with SmartGuide installed. As long as you do not use the loaders as a hammer, these loaders are an inexpensive alternative if you do not already has one.

I'm interested. I still use modded V35's and B2's. They were and still are good loaders. I would like to try one of these kits.

looks like an interesting and cool design, i do plan to get a halo too in the near future for a loaner. and not every1 is a tourny player that can justify dropping $120+ on a loader. Trust me i bet Kee has sold more Halo toos than all of their prophecy's put together..... my only question was why was that video edited at the beginning right before he podded up?

Not even close. Do you actually play paintball? Everytime I go to the field I would say like 60% of people use a rotor or prophecy.

Dye Rotor is a fantastic loader and I don´t only say this because I invented it  .
However, if your loader is malfunctioning for some reason Smartguide is an ideal backup solution. If it works with wornout Reballs than will it work even better with paintballs.
And Smartguide use the same basic idea as Dye Rotor to unvoid high pressure in the ball stack. High pressure in the ball stack can break paint in the breach because the bolt is slighty bigger than the paintballs. It´s the second paintball that break and the next shoot will look like a barrel break.

I will be buying one for sure, it'll save me a ton of money on new delrin guts and the empire antijam for sure
people still use halos! They keep up with 12.5 bps just fine, and I don't have to pay a retarded price for something that goes faster than I'll ever need to.

At cup last year I used my V35, i have a Z2 and a prophecy. But I was having problems and brought my old work horse out and shot perfect!
I am willing to buy this and definatly give it a try if not expensive. I have a clutch kit and a tune up kit in mine now.
I C this making a little light, but not by mutch because all the weight is coming from the battery area.....
Cool idea, espicially the guy who helped design the rotor!!!

I would say up here it's closer to 85-90 percent realistically. I saw a DM4 a couple weekends ago. Still had a rotor.
Getting off subject though. This is a cool design. I might pick one up. I still have my cheetah/boosted halo.
