All electronics of the new CS2 are now
mounted within the frame of the marker,
removing electronic connectivity points
between the body and frame, and the marker
is fully hoseless. An SL5 inline pressure
regulator is housed within the marker’s
grip frame, along with a large electronic
information screen. AA batteries power the
marker’s electronics and are mounted in the
marker’s vertical fore-grip in a “Lock N Load”
system. Batteries, along with the marker’s
wrap-around rubber grips, can now be
changed without tools and the new “Rake
Blade trigger” offers multi-point adjustability
allowing players to fine-tune their interface
with the marker to their exact specifications.
CS2 include a clamping, low-rise feed tube,
Bluetooth electronics, a CS2 POPS push-
button on/off bottle adapter, anti-chop eyes,
a multi-piece carbon fiber Shaft FL barrel
system manufactured in conjunction with
Deadlywind that is delivered with two backs,
and of course the signature Eclipse hard
zipper case. At well under two pounds thanks
in no small part to all the metal machined
away from the CS2’s aluminum body and the
carbon fiber Shaft FL barrel, the CS2 is sleek,
lightweight and highly advanced, as it should
be at a retail price of $1499.
Teams using the Planet Eclipse CS2 have
already taken to the field at the first NXL
professional paintball tournament of 2018,
Other standard features of the new Eclipse held in Las Vegas, Nevada.
