Question:

Paintball Hopper/Loader?

Should I get the Halo B, Empire Reloader B, or the Invert Halo Too? Money isnt an issue.

Answer:

All 3 are about the same. But I'd avoid the Halo B since many people have complained about the eyes not sensing their paint. I'd probably go with the Too because of it's price. You're getting about the same performance, so why spend more? Just throw in a Rip-Drive and you're good to go! However, another good loader is the Empire Magna, my friend owns one and he loves it! Vlocitys are good but the constant agitation can get really annoying (RerrRerrRerr). Eggys just suck. Don't bother with a rotor, prophecy, or pinokio. You really only need those if you want to shoot about 30+ balls per second (the 3 you mentioned shoot about 20), and that's just a waste of paint. Most tournaments have a 15 bps cap, and outside of tournaments, I've seen people shooting 18 bps that can EASILY compete against people shooting 30 bps. Remember, it doesn't matter how many balls you can shoot in a second, it only matters if any of those balls will hit the other guy.
All three run pretty much the same internals. The main difference is the Halo B uses eyes in the feedneck while the Reloader B Invert Too are sound activated. Other than that, they are pretty much interchangeable.
Invert Halo too is phenominal but the Halo stands out on top, if money isn't an issue i'd highly recommend you purchasing a rotor or a pinokio, but unless you shoot 30bps, you won't need those. The halo will keep up with any gun, its quiet, good on batterys, and good profile.
go with the Invert. the Invert and the empire are the same loader. they don't make the Reloader B anymore. I have had my Reloader B for a long time. sound activated loaders are great if you play lots of woodsball saves alot of batteries
never used the invert myself, but i would go with the halo b. it has a good speed and will easily keep up with most guns as long as your not going totally insane with the bps. you can buy upgrades for the board to make it faster and there are a ton of replacement parts available. they are very good for the price. the only hopper i liked over the haloB is the viewloader vlocity. i think it is a bit better than the halo as far as speed right out the box. it is quite tall though once you have it on the gun (the only setback) best of luck
