just for some info my setup is a dye rotor and a ninja 68/45. My main gun is my invert mini but i just got a new gun and I want to know if it is better. I got a 2006 planet eclipse ego from a friend and it is used and probably shot many cases of paint. The solenoid is broken and I want to replace it and use that gun. IS the 2006 ego better than the mini? I am pretty sure that it is but i heard that once you put 20 to 30 cases in it that a part wears down and it cant fire past 200 fps. Is this true?
Which gun is better and why? thanks
Ego, any Ego, is better than a Mini. Faster cycling speed (affects rate of fire), more board settings, secondary regulator (LPR, or Low Pressure Regulator - reduces the operating pressure of the bolt to a level that makes the gun much gentler on paint, and its own internals, than the Mini), world class customer service. You can shop for a used solenoid for cheap, or Planet Eclipse will gladly service the gun.
While nothing lasts forever, especially from the wear & tear a paintball gun goes through, it should be able to go past 20-30 cases provided it was regularly maintained. I've got a 5 yr old Smart Parts Ion that's gone through about 50 cases, and the beast is still rolling. With the quality of Egos, you should get at least the same amount of use, if not more. The 'noid going out is most likely not the gun itself being worn past its prime, but more the result of user error.
