eHobby Asia’s New Storefront

http://www.ehobbyasia.com/ or http://www.shop.ehobbyasia.com/

Shout out goes to “Conscript” on the Airsoft Canada forums for pointing this out to me.  Like many other Canadian Airsofters, I’ve been a long-time customer for eHobby Asia (almost 3 years, I think).

It’s great to see them open a full web-side online store, outside the confines of eBay.

The site is easy to use, you get immediate shipping quotes based on your location, and the site is nice and fast.

Congrats to the folks at eHobby Asia, and all the best in the future.

Attention Retailers: New distributor of China-made products.

Leison E&T Co., Ltd. is a new distributor for many real-steel and wargame products.

Not much is known about them so far - but don’t get too excited people - this is for retailers only.

I was having difficulties accessing their company site with Firefox, but I managed to extract a URL to their Product and About Us pages, which should load the rest of the page for any interested parties.

Cheers.

Mad Bull Airsoft - New USB-Powered Chronograph, for the airsofter/event organizer that likes to take their computer everywhere they go. Just kidding!

News from Mad Bull this morning.   See below for the information from Simon @ Mad Bull.

Features:

Rechargeable (2xAAA rechargeable batteries not included)
USB Power adapter (You can charge it by your computer or you can buy regular USB home or car charger.)
Extreme power save function

More details:
http://www.madbullairsoft.com/English/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=34&products_id=176

MSRP: $150 or lower

What would be really cool about this USB Chrono, would be the ability to record results to the Windows Clipboard when connected via USB.  Event Organizers can keep a spreadsheet of the attendees’ chrono results during signup.

Would be a cool feature indeed. Keep on dreamin’ people.

No, you don’t need to take your computer with you to charge this thing - a cigarette lighter adapter for USB devices will work very conveniently - it’s still fun to think about.

Here are the actual features of the product, as listed by Mad Bull (I’m a fan of the tripod adapter on the bottom):

  1. Velocity: FPS/ MPS.
  2. Fire Rate: Balls per second BPS/BPM
  3. Pre-set B.B. weight v.s. energy (Joule) 0.20g .023g 0.25g 0.30g 0.33g 0.43g 0.89g
  4. Self-supply internal sensor light source. You can use it indoors or outdoors. Day time or night time.
  5. Extra large size diameter, (20mm. You can even measure the velocity of paintballs).
  6. External Barrel Adapter for aiming straight.
  7. Using 2 AAA rechargable battery Battery.
  8. Auto shut down in 120 second to save battery life.
  9. Blinking when low battery
  10. Handheld small size: 12.5*5.5*5cm
  11. Tri-pod adapter on the bottom.
  12. 6061T6Aircraft aluminum. Extremely durable.

Sounds pretty good to me.

Airsoft-News.eu - Down temporarily, moving to a new webspace.

Hey everyone,

Had a few emails asking why Airsoft-news.eu is down.

And while the image on their site is typically enough for most people to read and understand, I’ll spell it out too.

THEY ARE MOVING TO A NEW WEB SPACE WITH LARGER BANDWIDTH.

Readership increasses, and these are steps that must be taken to ensure stability.  Congrats to the crew at Airsoft-News.eu on outgrowing their old residence.

Cheers!

King Arms: New Products - Including LiPo batteries. Beats Mad Bull to the punch.

King Arms has released a bunch of new products recently.  Most notably are their LiPo batteries.  Mad Bull Airsoft has had an LFP battery system in the works for some time, but looks like King Arms wins the Lithium race.

At least we have an alternative to the cheaper quality LiPo cells from other manufacturers available today.

Other new products include:
