Birdshot isn't impressive in the least. Don't use a marketing gag clearly intended to be a parody of other similar "torture tests" as an example of a hopper's durability. That said, the rotor, spire, and Z2 are more than durable enough to handle just abojt anything you'll put them through.

Yes I know it was sort of a gimmick on the shotgun test, but it's still a shotgun...

[Aulldeath]

Just the shotgun test? The only "test" that was actually impressive was the water test. At least you can jump in a lake and only have to worry about the gun frying.

I didn't say JUST the shotgun test, I just said "the shotgun test," (cwhatIdidthere).

I have owned 3 Super Loaders in the last 10 months, the Z2 (which I still have) the Rotor (which I couldn't sell fast enough), and the Pinokio PL230.


I love my Z2. THe plastic seems a little cheap and flimsy at first, and the loading tray can be a pain in the ass to snap back in during a thorough cleaning, but the electronic antijam, the quietness of the loader itself and the battery efficiency have me sold. I have a Virtue Crown 2 for it, and with the magnets that clamp down, even losing the spring isn't an issue.

I sold my Rotor V3 ( which was my back up to my Z2) because it had all kinds of issues. It would jam any time I used Grafitti or Redemption, even when it was a relatively cool day (not hot and humid or anything). THe speedfeed provided by Dye was alright, and it did feel pretty durable. However the shark fin thing I had on there felt kind of useless becuase it never unjammed any of my jams. I would have to pop the hopper apart mid-game (often losing half a hopper of paint or more), clear it with my figners before I got it unjammed. I swapped batterys and everything and it had all sorts of issues. Luckily it seemed to be working better when I sold it to a friend of mine, but I wasn't willing to give it another shot after being disappointed time and time again.

My Pinokio is a great back up/ loaner loader. It holds a shit ton of paint, feels really solid (although the ridged feedneck is a pain in the ass when trying to load it in my Axe, nothing to bad though), and feeds pretty reliably (although I have had a jam or two). The only thing I don't like is it takes two 9volts, which are like 4 bucks a piece out at Wal-mart. Makes it irritating to feed, but the battery efficiency is enough that it's not a big deal. It does have a HUGE profile for it though, so I'd only recommend it if you were a back.

Out of all of those, I'd say get the Z2 if you have the money to spend for a Rotor. You won't regret it. If you want to save some money, check out the Pinokio.

Ok guys thanks for all the help. I went to the field yesterday and saw all 3 hoppers in action. After handeling them all i think im going with the spire. Its awesome looking and the tech working on my gun recommended it.

If you've got the extra money to dish out, do it cuz the v3 is sooo sexy. I got the cubix red one with my dm13 and love it. They have the nicer color combos, and perform the same if not better than the z2.

I like how people say the Rotor jams all the time, when 99% of all Rotor users have been happy with theirs for the past 2-3 years.
I just love it when a good prophecy fanboy get's the chance to bash the Rotor some more.
Rotor is simple, Prophecy is advanced. If you set your prophecy and your Rotor up the way they should they will both work great.


The Spine I have no idea on though. And why people call the Pinokio a superloader is beyond me. Actually, why people actually use the phrase "superloader" for anything is also beyond me.
It's a fucking loader, it feeds paintballs trough a hole, if it works for you why argue about it?

I love my rotor and have also used the Z2. I like the rotors overall performance over the Z2 (Which isnt much at all) Both preform awesome but i feel the rotor did better. What really gets me is the overall sleekness and look of the rotor. Can't be beat imo.

Fixed.

unless youre living in 2010, all rotors being sold by retailers are all V3

[The Knife Crazy]

get any rotor, you wont be disappointing
