Sweet setup, good to see what can come from a little work and initiative!

Voila! Now with Exalt speed feed convinience.

First I cut the top feed port area out of an old Reloader hopper. I wanted to be able to switch back to a standard hopper lid in case of rain (here in FL) so I kept the little retaining tabs.



Then I JB Welded the two pieces to the pod lid ring. Kind of a double step-up deal. The inner lip tood some Dremel work so that the speed feed tabs would have plenty of room. After everything was set up I split the inner pod ring so I could use the regular lid if need be.



Exalt s/f slips right over the top.





Ill have to scrounge up a decent Reloader/Revvy lid as the only extra I have is busted up. But thats about all the major stuff.

had the back ring pull off a pewter belt buckle,
tried to JB weld it back on.
it didn't hold, came right off 2 days later when i tested it.
any idea if it's the metal that it doesn't like or do i need to cut some shallow pits/grooves for the JB weld to bite into?

btw,
what does JB Weld cost down your way?
here in Ontario the small tubes are around $10.00 once you add sales tax.

well got Halo in hand,
any idea just how much voltage I can dump into the motor before i release the
Mysterious Blue Smoke?
I would actually like to run her off "C" cell batteries if possible, but not sure if the motor can take it and still keep the Mysterious Blue Smoke contained prolonging it's function.

should you ever release the Mysterious Blue Smoke from anything electronic;
it will never work again.
it's the Mysterious Blue Smoke that makes everything work properly.

and I'm not using an airsoft box-mag.
I'm going to make my own box out of
metal, or possibly use a .50 cal ammo box.
(i have one kicking around, use them for camera cases and such.)

I do not know how much voltage you can push through the system. Im guessing the motor can handle more than the board. But I know squat about electrical engineering. "C" cell batteries arent much different than "AA"'s other than their capacity. Their output is the same so you shouldnt have any issues using up to six of them.

Man I think you could come up with something lighter than a steel .50 box too. Those things are HEAVY. But thats not to say it wont suit your build ideally either.

1.6 v at about 8,000 mA

Here's a comprehensive list.

Revies were 2x 9 volts... But I don't know what got to the motor. You could always count resistors

Great! now I have to start collecting parts. . .

Wow.. Amazing work. Who wants to make me one?!
