hey i just upgraded to the ion and had a few questions. first off if you leave your battery connected will it kill it? also is there a way to switch from single shot to 3 round burst to full auto without opening the grips?
So i have a Smart part Ion, i am Having a issue with, My Power Button LED is Solid Red, it will not change and unable to Fire, and will not turn off unless i Disconnecting the Battery, i have Tried to find info on how to Fix the issue and am not having any luck Finding out whats wrong, Any Help is very Appreciated
i have a problem with my ion and when i press the trigger once or twice and it wont fire, but then it fires on the second or third press and then itll shoot fine after that. but then if i stop shooting for a short time, itll repeat this problem again. can anyone please help?
good vid man...i just bought two ions. and for a entry level gun there are a lot of confusing ass settings. good job explaing the settings. very clear
run a dwell of 40, and rate of fire of 8 from the max setting. This will use less air per shot, and give the gun more time to recharge. Hense less drop-off at 17 BPS. Use a combination of 48. goto this link to properly set up your ion to shoot 17bps and be the most efficient you could use 1 of thousands of combinations of setting from the cheat sheet.
GREAT VIDEO!! you really know how to explain stuff i was trying to figure out how to get my ion on ramping finally did thanks man! oh ya my little grey button to change modes and stuff snaped off :S
wait, so i bout my ion used at a garage sale, and i wanna know how to reset the values because i know the player who previously owned it before me messed with the setting and screwed them up. is there a way i can set everything to zero, and then redo it?
It's an ion either way. It's design is not the most air effecient anyways. The difference between stock and lowering it a little bit will be negligible.
hi...i have the stock settings on my board and i want to change that settings but i dont know in how much i have to put my dwell (i dont have QEV)..please help me
thnx so much..u made the ion vids all easier to understand...... best 10 mins 27 seconds i ever used up in my life. i always got confused with dwell,rof, and the modes...so thnx so much ...that goes for a suscribe
i agree with not using ramping and full auto. it takes away from the tactical part of paintball. it turns into a who can spray better much... fuck that
one and probably my final question, why when i change firing modes, when i pull the trigger the light doesnt change. when i set it to full auto the light stays and it wont change from semi
would the best way to set the dwell be to lower it all the way to zero and then count how many times you click it, aswell what is the best setting to have your dwell and recharge on together?
thanks man that was better than the other vids that try to explaine dwell and recharge. also your explanation of the gun and the way it works was awesome dude. keep up the good work!
Thnx dude you helped me allot!! I bought a QEV so i needed to lower my dwell infact that was the only thing i wanted 2 know but now i know how 2 programm my whole board!!! thnx man Awesome vid!! keep up the good work!
I know you mentioned that making this video was against your best judgment. But, I for one am glad that you did. It's a good tutorial and it's helped me with my ION, which I picked up yesterday. Now I understand how to program it to my liking. And I do agree with you, I too use the SEMI. BUT the RAMP/Rebound mode is pretty kool. Thanks again!
A setting you can set your board to. It electronicly makes your gun shoot faster then you are pulling the trigger. For example psp ramping you have to maintain shooting approx. 6 bps and the board will electronicly make your gun shoot 13 bps.
so i installed a QEV in my ion xe,so i should be able to lower the DWELL? becouse i still have the stock DWELL and RECHARGE setting.the QEV should be able to increase gas effiency and i think my ion is wasting air ,i have a 3000psi tank it it goes down fast,can you help me
Yes the dwell can go down a bit, read the description of this video for how to set it. The QEV will just barely effect your efficiency so its likely you wouldnt notice a difference, you should just invest in a good tank. Also, whats up with the random capslock?
thank you,it really helped me,i really want to invest in a 4500psi tank,but i dont got much cash,im doin good to keep paint for walk-ons.lol i dont really know why i put the cap.
sorry that is completely impossible. If you understood how the gun worked you would understand that the dwell could NOT effect the pressure of the air in the solonoid. Message me and explain to me how a higher dwell would cause a blown solonoid.
Well, why would we know? Send it to SmartParts because all stock Ions come with it on the board. Maybe you don't have the Ion Stock board. The US version has Semi, Rebound (Ramping), 3 shot burst and Full Auto at 10 BPS. The UK ones I think only have Semi and Rebound.
For the people who have the blue light for their Ions, its not an issue, thats just the UK board. They use blue, we use red

You should lower the stock dwell settings, just a tiny bit. More dwell = better shot consistancy, less dwell = better air efficiency
High dwell will eat your air
