Ups for ion:

[yngndrw]

Well I have an On/Off on mine, and it makes life so much easier. No more stuck tanks, no more needing to shoot down the gas to remove your tank, and I use mine as a safety seems as I only have a stock board currently - The gun can't fire without gas.

Well worth it IMO.

Alright, thanks for the help. Think I might go for one - Got my Ion today and found it extremely difficult to screw on and then unscrew the tank. Guessing this is quite normal considering the pressure?

Any on/off in particular you recommend? Also, how is it installed? Unscrew the original ASA from the hose up to the reg and screw it in between or..?

Cheers,

Well I'm just basing it off the site Tippmann 98's we use, some of them are a right pain to take the bottles off.

I do however have an A5 which isn't so bad, but that has decent tank threads which aren't all bashed.

I've never tried a stock ION ASA, as when I bought this ION, Suns had already fitted a CP drop and CP OOPS.

I am really happy with the CP OOPS, so I would suggest that - It's very light to turn, looks good and does everything it's ment to.

Alright, is that the same as a unimount? I'm not so good in that area of markers

i have on my ion the q lock like yours, i also have a CP sling blade trigger, its and absolutle dream, no side to side play what so ever, can go bloosy fast with it and can also go well with 3 fingers on the trigger, have an Eclipse drop forward on/off, the ones they dotn make anymore, thats a dream, bottles easy to screw on/off and the ion is easier to move around, abotu 2 inches closer i find it much better, i have a 16" all american barrel which is better than imagined, and as for the board, have a stock UK set to 20bps RAMPING QEV will be next and that shoudlk really be it

Okay, will make an on/off the next thing to get then Real bitch to unscrew at high pressure.

........ have a stock UK set to 20bps RAMPING ....

eh!! does the stock uk board have ramping?? , am i being a turd and not found it?? cos when i go to change mode, it doesnt. i thought the uk board just had plain old semi???

 

[yngndrw]

UK board has Semi and Ramping.

Cycle through the modes till you get to 'double blink yellow' then increase that as far as it will go.

'Double blink red' will get you back to semi.

Stock board is as setup from the factory will do 15bps.

 

[ION_CRAZY]

the stock board is capped at 17 bps, blackheart 20, there is no way to shoot faster than 17 with the stock board

right, so there are two mode, i get the double blink yellow/red, but im still confused, how can you tell whether your in ramping or semi, do you need to have the marker gased up before you know??

and whats this about increasing? you mean the bps, that the second set of flashy light aint it ( gad damm these ion maybe be simple to look at, but there is nothing like a dip setting to make life easy )
