The EyeForce is the “high end” of Viewloaders value loaders.  It is a true force feed hopper that uses eyes, holds a full 200, and is rated for 18 bps.

The neck is too long for almost EVERY feed-neck.  To avoid issues with it breaking, the first thing I recommend is to cut it down so that it doesn’t stick out so far.  That’s really the only major issue with the EyeForce design, but even that makes sense since it is in the value segment.

There is 3 screws to take this hopper apart.  It comes out in 2 pieces, the top piece you can actually throw in the dishwasher to clean, then wipe off the raceway in the second piece.  While not as easy to clean as the Rotor or Pinokio, this is still stupid easy to clean.

Uses 2 9v batteries, gets pretty good battery life.  Not as good as a Pinokio, but better than something like the HaloB, or the newer Halo Too.  As stated, holds a full 200 paintballs.  The body is very sturdy, will easily survive even very rough play.  Because of the eyes, is not constantly spinning like the lower end Viewloader Force.

Advantages:

• Cheap
• Good Capacity
  
• Easy to Clean

Disadvantages:

• Feedneck way too long
  
• Eyes can get clogged

Conclusion/Verdict:

Overall, probably the best value loader out.  Will keep up with just about any shooter, yet only costs $50 brand new.  Easy to clean, decent battery life.  While not tops in anything, also doesn’t come in last in any feature.  Still one of my favourite hoppers to rock.

The Halo Too is Inverts first attempt to make a hopper.  Instead of starting from scratch like Dye did, they took a trusted design (Empire Reloader B) and built on that.  They improved the construction by using a much more durable material.  They used a board that is essentially identical to the Reloader B2 board, which offers the advantages of adjust-ability.  In order to fight in the more value oriented segment, they reduced the number of batteries from 6 to 4.  This reduces the maximum speed of the hopper, but it’s still plenty fast enough to keep up with modern tourneys.  And if you have a 6 AA pack from a Halo/Reloader or one of the battery packs, it’ll fit and go just as fast.

Size is identical to the HaloB/ReloaderB.  Although it weighs a bit more due to the material it’s made of, this is a very welcome change as the shells are MUCH more durable.  Halo/Reloader speed feeds fit on this, as do rip drives with the extended prop shaft.  I have never tried, but have read that the Magna clutch kit will also fit on the Halo Too without issue.

Advantages:

• Familiar Design
  
• Lots of after-market parts since it takes Halo parts
  
• No eyes to get clogged
  
• Light

Disadvantages:

• Capacity
• Heavy if you use the Pinokio Nose
  

Conclusion/Verdict:

While not a bad value at $70, the Viewload EyeForce is $20 cheaper, and holds ~20 more paintballs.  Is about the same speed, and easier to take apart to clean.  On the other end, the original Prophecy is now only $30 more expensive, faster on the same amount of batteries, gets better battery life, and holds ~50 more paintballs.  Kinda stuck in that “middle ground” where it’s good, but not good enough in any area.

GOT THIS INFO FROM THE BOX!!!

This is an awesome loader, more efficient than my brothers rotor. The battery life is immense, even though i have only drop tested I recorded over 150 drop tests, always consistant and the batteries were no were near dead. The ninja paddle only broke about 10 balls, this is because I kept the balls cold for the tests, this is a great result! Feeds perfectly with no stutter. Its a bit loud, but who cares? Its pretty much telling you that you are out of paint.

Advantages:

• Fast
• Light
• Strong
• Looks Good
• Good Battery Life
• Low Profile
• Wide Lid
• Dynasty Sticker Set

Disadvantages:

• None Really, If any it could be a little loud for woodsball.

Conclusion/Verdict:

If you have the money buy this hopper, it will not let you down, and can out perform many of the higher priced hoppers, that I have used
