Thunder B testing Finally!

[xPrimer13]

make a video with it filled with BBs and partially filled

[FLAMINGPICKLES]

i like putting a little baby powder in the plastic canister and then when u set it off it actually looks like a flash bang.... except refs dont like "homemade" grenades........

[xCapperHD]

i usually bring my multi tool and i can get the shell off fine

[AirsoftR3L0ADed]

LOL number 1 and 3 are both good. 

[jdizzle921]

Drill the two 1mm holes in the side of the Co2 housing and run the one penny (Or Dime) at the bottom of the housing cap. That'll work best for you Schwell. With those mods, it's comparable to the fuse time on a real bang. Make sure to use one of these on Tony for me as well...LMAO.

[GUNSandTRIGGER]

well if you put shims in it cant that cause early wear on the gas mechanism?

[SHWELL11]

@GUNSandTRIGGER Nope, it still functions exactly as it is intended. All the shims do is make the pin pierce the CO2 cylinder better. The design is really simple.

[HellPB]

@SHWELL11

It's like the adjustable cap on the TPX pistol. Since different brands of cartridges varies a little in size (lenght) and the manufacturer based the design off a single brand of cartridges.

[ExiledAngelXV]

The cheapo Crosman CO2 canisters seem to work the best in these. You can usually find them at Dick's sporting goods for a reasonable price. But that's what I've had with experience with these here in Ohio.

[theteamtoxicairsoft]

Ive heard scoring the bottom half of the can helps. Also teflon tape around the threads helps.

[sgtshoeman]

try taping the top and the bottom of the actual plastic on the outside makes it only explode in the middle no hard tiome getting it off and faser explosion :)

[Boomterm33]

a way to avoid the top of the shell getting caught in the top of the core is to score the shell where you want it to break. thus it works how you want it to. also to make them go off faster, drill holes in the co2 casing/ tube. tell me what you think shwell

[S4ndm4n7]

One thing I've found to be extremely effective when using my grenades is to not use the pin or spoon at all. I simply manually pull back on the little spring hammer, and release it to get as much puncture power as possible. It fully punctures the co2, and allows me enough time to toss the grenade out. Another (more efficient) option that I enjoy using is to remove the spoon altogether, and simply smash the hammer onto a hard surface to forcefully puncture the co2 and immediately throw

[snorlaxx1337911]

surely lots of cranck around you area

[xairsoftbrandonx]

Something you could do so that it does not break on the top is make weak points in the bottom. Get a knif and make small slices on the bottom.

[kfx70099]

my thunder bs actually go off in about 2-3 seconds idk why im happy though

[IRLBemused]

Thanks for the tests. Would recommend some vaseline (petroleum jelly) on the shell threads for a better seal and as you note some flour or powder which decreases the volume available for the gas to expand into. I also score the side of it to create a weakness where it is more likely to rupture. They can still go wrong but my success rate with this approach would be about 90%.

[The911Alliance]

43 second to explode...sad

[SHWELL11]

@The911Alliance It waspretty useless.. You could throw it, and forget about it, come back later and it would Blow.... LOL. Thanks for watching.

[gamewiz0070]

@The911Alliance 42

[woolenitus]

i played at cqb and one landed next to me and i didnt c it and when it went off scared the shit outa me

[123asd1]

hmmm if you could make it instant a stirng and a weight at a door way would be a great "claymore" alert mechanism

[Chuey75]

Great demo! I purchase the players pack a few weeks ago I use 1 dime(shim) on the bottom and vasaline on the plastic thread then tightened it real good, mines detonates in 4 seconds.

[killerteddybear101]

DO NOT TIGHTEN THE PLASTIC AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE!!!!!!I DID AND THE THREAD STAYED IN AND IT TOOK 3 WEEKS FROM AIRSOFT TECH TO FIX IT,....DOOOOOOOO NOITTTTTTTTTT

[Coy1750]

I had an employee throw one of these at me inside of a shop when I wasnt paying attention. That shit will scare u lol

[marinecorp556]

what about 3 pennies so it is almost instant. Our team has been looking for flashbangs that go off within 1 to 3 seconds of being thrown. Will 3 pennies do that. It is sort of a waste to thow a grenade and have to wait 10 seconds. You loose the element of surprise.

[SHWELL11]

@marinecorp556 The problem I have had with 3 pennies is the pin piercing the CO2 when I am ssembling it. Therefore wasting CO2. It will come to testing. Once you have it working as needed, you can always let the handle go before throwing and throw it right before it pops. You can also drill a hole into the Sleeve, and this causes a fast erruption. So there are def options to get a fast pop. Good luck.

[ww298kscope]

@marinecorp556 then cook it (hold it in your hand for desired time after pulling pin/removing spoon, then throw)

[MarineRecon18]

@marinecorp556 look on opsgear.com those are a lot better

[IAirelandairsoft]

if yout worried about the top blowing off or spliiting just wrap tape around the top to reinforce it

[firstroundko108]

The black canister (Flash) blew up in my hand immediately upon release of spoon and the entire pot metal mechanism shattered nearly throwing shrapnel in my face and my friend's face. Only use the green waffle bodies!

[SHWELL11]

@firstroundko108 That sounds lke a faulty unit. Definately Faulty. I have had a total of 8 of these, and used well over 20, and never seen that happen. I will tell you that a unit that is not assembled correctly or modified can have issues. There is a user on Youtube Irelandairsoft or something like that has a vid of a failing unit similar to what you describe.

[firstroundko108]

@SHWELL11 I bought them when they were first released so that could be it. Scared the hell out of me though.

[daROCK1972]

The canisters, levers and pins are available in large quantities. But the firing mechanism is not...(Cylinders). Would I have to buy multiple start up packs just to get that??? I've been looking all over for them.

[SHWELL11]

@daROCK1972 Yes, that will be your only option to do this. I got one complete kit New, then 2 Starter Kits used. But they were Starter kits. But you are better off buying the complete kits. For the money you are saving by buying the complete kit. It is usually $10 more for the complete kit.. The Shells are $13. So a starter kit and shells is $38 on avg.. A complete kit is only $35.

[Singuy888]

Did you say "Singuy I hope this makes you happy" or Sim guys? I don't remember me requesting such a review...but awesome non the less and thanks:)

[SHWELL11]

@Singuy888 Yeah, I said Singuy, but meant Srpent.. I was having a brain fart. 

[SH1R3PRODUCT1ONS]

Haha, oh the people at Socom love it when our team brings these up there...

[tommyp2401]

Hey Shwell, I read somewhere just yesterday that teflon tape can prevent the leaking. I think you should post a vid trying it out.

[JordansReviews]

Shwell doesn't run. But that guy in the back does.

[PyroMonkeyyz]

dude you are a beast!!

[THExGOOGLERx]

could you put airsoft BB's in their to make a grenade?

[SHWELL11]

@THExGOOGLERx As mentioned in the vid, Yes.

[THExGOOGLERx]

@SHWELL11 ha srry thx man

[TheTacticalAirsofter]

would the grenade fit in a M203 pouch?

[SHWELL11]

@TheTacticalAirsofter No real idea, if it does, I am sure it is a tight fit. But I have no idea. 

[Serpent10i]

SWEET :D thank you SHWELL11 I have waited for ever for this :D

[SHWELL11]

@Serpent10i I hope it was informative.

[MrMonkekekeMan]

Would three pennies work? The one with two pennies is not fast enough for me because I play very fast paced CQB. I'm kinda hoping for around 3 seconds.

[SHWELL11]

@MrMonkekekeMan The problem you run into is the more you put in, the higher chance of premature piercing of the CO2.

[ReconCompany1]

those are the worst thunder B i have ever seen

[SHWELL11]

@ReconCompany1 uh oh.. They are? 

[ReconCompany1]

@SHWELL11 IDK if your being sarcastic but Thunder B's Suck... but not that much... I own three

P.S LOVE YOUR VIDEOS

[SHWELL11]

@ReconCompany1 Def sarcasm. I like them, but they do have their downside, and based on my experience they have quite the failure rate. But the design is pretty simple and ez to get working with enough enginuity. Thanks for watching man.

[johnnyjdizzle66]

Wow dude you multi talented talking on airsoft chat and filming at the same time

[SHWELL11]

@johnnyjdizzle66 lol..

[johnnyjdizzle66]

Wow due you multi talented talking and filming at the same time

[SHWELL11]

first.. you guys are so slow.
