Viewloader, who make some of… if not the… best loaders in paintball, called me up with a sweet deal on some VL XSV Vlocity loaders. just in time for Christmas! While supplies last, you can score these excellent electronic hoppers for just $109.99. Thats $70 off the old price and $20 below a standard Vlocity! Its probably the best value out there to feed any fast firing tournament and scenario marker out there. The heart of it is the same rugged design as used by professional team XSV, with different tension settings to maximize speed without crushing brittle paint. This edition also includes the Clockspring Propeller, a new drive cone that features springy arms to allow more room for paint to index into the catchcup while providing even more cushioning to prevent turning your loader into a brittle tourney-paint blender. However, the best addition is a set of long-lasting Ion-Lithium batteries and recharging base with both wall and car plugs. Not only are you saving $70, but you never have to buy batteries for your loader.
Again, this special is while supplies last… and I doubt they’ll last long. If you need a new force-feeding loader, here’s your chance to save big. If you’re Christmas shopping for a paintballer on your list, here is a great deal on something any player can use!

I don’t know why they didn’t include a charging port in the XSV hopper. It sucks to have to take out the batteries to charge them.
Making a mold for a loader shell is actually a very expensive process. It would also necessitate manufacturing a new circuit board for the plug. Thus they either make and stock two different boards, or use the more expensive board in both which is wasting resources on the standard models. From a practical sense that would have been a very bad business decision unless the price was raised. I’d rather use a screwdriver for 30 seconds than pay more money for a charging port!
