{"product_id":"planet-eclipse-sl8r-lv2-paintball-marker","title":"Planet Eclipse SL8R LV2 Paintball Marker","description":"\u003cp\u003eBack in 2008, the SL8R set the standard for what an Ego should look like. The \u003cstrong\u003ePlanet Eclipse SL8R LV2 Paintball Marker\u003c\/strong\u003e brings that design back, built on the LV2 so it can still keep up at the highest level of play. It's a limited release with just 200 of each style, so if the SL8R was your dream marker growing up, now's your shot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt comes in three finishes: \u003cstrong\u003eCold Steel\u003c\/strong\u003e (blue and medium grey), \u003cstrong\u003eOcean\u003c\/strong\u003e (sandstone and blue), and \u003cstrong\u003ePure\u003c\/strong\u003e (all silver).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe 2008 SL8R Look, Rebuilt on the LV2\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis isn't a new marker with an old name slapped on it. Matt Mahoney, Planet Eclipse's chief marker designer and the guy who drew the first SL8R, revisited his original design for this release. The signature SL8R cuts are back, along with the frame styling players remember, tightened up so it all flows with the LV2 body. Planet Eclipse built it as a tribute to the Ego before the line rides off into the sunset.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy the SL8R LV2 Shoots So Smooth\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOld school looks, new school guts. The Lever Valve is the reason the Ego earned its reputation for a quiet, low kick shot, and the LV2 version is the best one yet. A bigger valve chamber and the Cure FT bolt bring the operating pressure down to about 115 psi. Lower pressure means a softer shot that's gentler on brittle paint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWant to dial it in? Dual SFR flow controls let you adjust bolt speed, and the Zick3 rammer assembly comes with both heavy and lightweight rammers so you can tune the feel. The SMC solenoid is user serviceable, and the hoseless layout keeps everything tidy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSL8R LV2 Barrel and Inserts\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlanet Eclipse didn't cut corners on the barrel either. Every SL8R LV2 includes the S63 Pro FL barrel system with a PE x CRBN Nano tip and two Eclipse PWR inserts, .689 and .685. That covers most paint you'll see at the field, and more PWR sizes are available if you need them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eElectronics and Setup\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe SL8R uses the latest MME (Modular Marker Electronics) package. Settings are easy to read on the OLED screen, and three buttons on the frame make changes quick, with a tournament lock on the board. NXL Pro Mode is new here, letting players and refs pull up performance and compliance data in seconds. Bluetooth is on board for E-Portal Lite, and a USB Micro-B port handles full E-Portal (bring your own cable). Power comes from a 9V battery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eComfort on the Field\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWraparound grips with sealed pushbuttons, a fully contoured foregrip, and a blade trigger with 5 points of adjustment make the SL8R LV2 easy to get comfortable with. Pick between spring or magnetic trigger return, or swap in a 170R, CS1 or GEO4 trigger shoe. You also get toolless eye covers, spare detents stored right on the marker, POPS ASA, the Deftek offset feed, and a low-rise feed tube with a lever locator. It's wireless compatible too, with an optional comms board.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eIn the Box\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSL8R LV2 marker\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eS63 Pro FL barrel with PE x CRBN Nano tip\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e.689 and .685 Eclipse PWR inserts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeavy and lightweight rammers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCollectible SL8R keyring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSemi rigid case\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpares bundle and SFR adjustment tool\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlanet Eclipse backs it with a 2 year manufacturer warranty.
