THIS ITEM WILL BE PLACED ON PRE-ORDER
Etek 4 - Marker for The Masses
The following features can be found on BOTH Etek4 LT and Etek4 AM models:
NEW One-Piece Body
New 3D machining with sleek lines. The Body has an integrated male
FRM the same as Ego11 and Geo2 to accept the SL3 Regulator
NEW SL3 Regulator
Internally and performance-wise, the exact same regulator that can be found
on the Ego11, CSL and Geo2.1. It allows the Etek4 to run with HP, MP or LP tanks without the need to
alter settings and inline regulator adjustments. It has a replaceable and reversible main seal as well
as self-purging feature to leave the firing chamber de-gassed after tank removal.The Etek4 now includes its own angled reg swivel...
NEW Angled Inline Reg Swivel
Similar to those seen on the Geo2.1 and Ego11, the Etek4 now includes its own angled reg swivel.
NEW 2012 OOPS
The new OOPS combines a low profile, ultra-easy on/off/purge function and front-mounted
hose exit. As with all Eclipse markers since 2007 the Etek4 utilizes the T-Slot Rail.
The Etek4 will also accept a POPS ASA.
NEW Zick2 Rammer Kit
The incredibly successful Zick2 kit is now to be found as standard on the Etek4. The Etek4
kit utilizes a unique rammer cap to work with the Etek4 rammer housing.
NEW Shaft4 Etek Barrel
Like the full-fat Shaft4 barrel, the Etek4 barrel utilizes a 2-piece, reverse threaded construction
with a longer rear control bore for increased efficiency and consistency. The barrel is internally
finished identically to the Geo and Ego Shaft4 barrel but features simplified external machining.
The rear bore is honed to 0.693" diameter and both front and backs are compatible with
Shaft4 Boost Kits and Tips.
Deftek Offset Feed
The feed is offset to one side by a small amount. This prevents the balls that tumble
into the breech from bouncing excessively and causing breaks and chops.
Cure Bolt
Again carried over from the Ego range, the Etek4 now has a Cure bolt as standard, as well as a
body-contoured cut at the rear so the bolt blends seamlessly into the marker body. The Cure bolt helps
the Etek4 to shoot the most fragile of tournament grade paints without worry of breaks due to the
bolt clipping paintballs in the feed stack. The Etek4 will accept Cure3+ and Cure4 upgrade bolts.
Direct Mounted Solenoid
The Etek4 Minifold mounts the ever-faithful SMC solenoid directly to the marker body, directly
adjacent to the rammer. There is just a single hose taking the LP air from the LPR to the Minifold
where it is filtered for added protection against debris.
Adjustable LPR
With the same LPR found on the Ego11 and CSL, the Etek4 offers precise control of LPR pressure,
without the risk of accidental over-pressurization of the solenoid or rammer.
Fully Adjustable Trigger
The Trigger rides in a self-lubricating trigger holder that clips neatly into the frame. This,
combined with the magnetic trigger return mechanism, creates a smooth, positive trigger feel.
It is adjustable for fore and aft stop as well as magnetic return strength.
Break Beam Sensor System (BBSS)
Using the same components and software as the Ego BBSS system, the Etek4 ensures that the
marker excels at preventing chopped balls in the breech. When enabled, the Etek4 will only
fire once a ball has loaded into the breech. If the BBSS system sees any kind of fault, the
software automatically overrides the system and the marker continues to fire at a greatly reduced rate.
LED Board (3 tru-color LED indicators)
These 3 clever LEDs allow easy programming of all the user definable parameters by greatly
simplifying the programming process. The top LED indicates 10s of units, the middle displays
1s and the bottom shows 0.1 increments.
Programmable Firing Modes
Etek4 has user-definable settings for Dwell, Ball-in-Place, Eyes-Off ROF, Capped ROF (un-capped in Semi 1),
Debounce, and Firing Mode. As standard the Etek4 has the capability to be set to cover every tourney regulation.
Soft Grips
The Etek4 grips follow the same design as the Geo and Ego grips. Comfortable, slim, grippy and soft.
The Etek4 LT utilizes glass-reinforced impact resistant composite parts for the frame, eye cover,
feedtube and OOPS knob. All other materials are the same high grade alloys found in the Geo and Ego
range of markers.
The Etek4 AM is of an All Metal construction that replaces all of the above composite parts with machined alloy parts.
