APS Thunder Devil CO2 Single Use BB Grenade Shell (Package: Set of 12 / Shells Only)

"OK...first...

These things are great. Quality is way better now than it was a few years ago.

Now...be careful how you purchase these because even though Evike shows a discounted price for buying 12 shells plus a core for $28 reduced from $36 you can buy them individually for $26!!! The core's regular price is $20 and 12 Thunder Devils shells are $16.

Not really sure what Evike is thinking on this one.

SKIP THE SALE AND SAVE MONEY AT REGULAR PRICE.

"These dont fire super quickly like everyone says they do. Thats because people put waaay to many BB's in them. I keep seeing reviews that say "filled it half way and it almost exploded in my hand". 150 BBS is recommended and when you do this you get a good 3-4 second fuse. Pack the thing half way (alot more than 150) if you want a 1-2 second fuse. Anyways these are pretty much the best reusable BB throwing grenade out there. Super reliable and effective.

"PLEASE READ!

First off, these are great in the sense that they detonate consistently, and they also expel bbs consistently. Of course this is exactly what this shell was made for so I wouldn’t expect anything less. The only issue I have with these is that they detonate FAST, and by fast I mean fast. We tested them at my local field and we were averaging 1-1.5 seconds. That’s insane compared to the traditional Thunder B shell which usually takes around 4-5 seconds. This is caused by the smaller shell size, and I cannot stress enough how much you need to understand this before buying these. You may think 1.5 seconds is plenty of time, and it is for CQB, but in the field? Forget it. The first time I used one of these I nearly friendly fired my entire team because it detonated mid air. These are good for clearing rooms, or being tossed through windows that’s your covered on. As for open field throws, I’d steer clear of these otherwise you risk killing your self and your team depending on what your fields kill radius for grenades is (mines 20 feet, and it’s a struggle to get these 20 feet away in open field before it detonates.) Overall these are great, just understand that the fuse time is like a fourth of what you’re probably used to with Hakotsu. I just wish Evike posted the average detonation time.
