Listed on this page are various electronics components used on various paintball markers and equipment. Soldering skills are required to install everything listed on this page unless otherwise noted.
Ion/Shocker/Nerve board switch - $1.55/ea
This switch (button) is used on many paintball electronics, including Shocker/Nerve stock upper and lower boards, stock Ion boards, PB Warehouse Nitro board, NoX Shocker board, E/X-Mag boards, and others. This doesn't work on the older Ion T-boards (rev-a, b, and c) or rev-b Virtue Ion boards.
This switch is slightly different than the one that comes stock with these boards. It doesn't have the "raised" button; this helps make the button more difficult to break off. | |

Omron trigger microswitch (top-actuated) - $3/ea
Replacement Omron trigger microswitch. These "top-actuated" switches are used in the following markers: Shocker Sport LS, Shocker SFT/NXT, Nerve, Impulse, Ion, non-Alias Intimidator, Viking, Excalibur, DM4/5/C (non-UL), Rainmaker, Wrath, Tribal, Bushmaster, Proto Rail (non-UL), Alien/NME, and others.
· Available in 25 or 80 gram. Some markers come with a 25 (SP markers for instance), but some others come with an 80. The 80-g switches provide a more "clicky" feel and can also help to control bounce; the 25-g switches are lighter. | |

9v battery connector - $0.65/ea
Connectors for 9v batteries, suitable for just about every electronic marker out there that uses a 9v battery. The connector has eight inches of wire and comes in two types:
· Middle connect: Wires connect to the middle/side of the battery snap. This is suggested for Shockers and Nerves, or other markers with a small battery compartment.
· End connect: Wires connect to the end of the battery snap. This is suggested for Ions, Impulses, and Shocker Sports, or other markers with frames that have more room. | |
|

Shocker Sport solenoid harness - $5/ea
This is a complete wiring harness pigtail for a Shocker Sport (1998-2002). This works for any Shocker Sport board available; DS, LS, or Glacier. The leads on the wires are stripped and ready to be soldered to the solenoids.
Please note that these are used harnesses I've taken off bad solenoids. They are still perfectly functional (tested).
Available while supplies last; once I run out I won't have any more available. | |
|
|
"Milli-Grid" precrimped wire - $1.50/ea
This is a pre-crimped wire that is used to form a pigtail used by the Milli-Grid connectors. This wire plugs into a crimp housing (below) to form a pigtail.
The markers that use this series connector are listed below.
This ships as a bare 3" wire with one end crimped. You'll need multiple pre-crimped wires to form a complete pigtail.
· Currently this is available in black, red, blue, and green (other colors will be available in the future if there's demand). | |
|
|
"Milli-Grid" crimp housing - $1.25/ea
This housing is used to hold Mill-Grid crimps. When installed the connector is used on the following markers:
· 6 pin: NME boards, Pulse RF transmitter, DM3 thematrixcenter eye connector
· 8 pin: NME, Shocker Sport HSW S-Frame, DM3 Dye eye connector
· 12 pin: Bushmaster (includeing Chaos boards), Morlock boards, Intimidator, Freestyle.
· 14 pin: Intimidator
The above pre-crimped wires are inserted into this housing to form a functional pigtail connector. Solder the other end of the wires to the marker components and you're finished.
This ships as an empty housing, nothing else included. | |

"Pico-Blade" pigtail - $5/ea
Pico-Blade connectors are used on the following markers: AKALMP boards (all but the bolt solenoid connector), Onyx, Mini, Quest, Alias Intimidator, Tadao Ion boards, and possibly others. This ships with 6" of 28 gauge wire, ready to be soldered to whatever part of the marker you wish.
Please note that the wire color (polarity) might be incorrect. The polarity is designed for a Tadao Ion board so double check the wire function before you solder the wires together.
Out of stock until further notice, sorry. | |

3-mm red superbright LED - $1.50/ea
Clear-tinted superbright red LED, suitable for board mods on most boards and markers, including LED relocations and laser eye mods. This is the red LED I use on my own modifications, using the lazer eye detectors below for eye mods in specific.

Fairchild infrared emitter/detector pair - $3.50 for one set
One pair of Fairchild QEC122 emitter and QSC112 detector eyes (these are infrared non-visible eyes). These are suitable for AKALMP boards, DM4/5/C boards, and others. Price includes one emitter and one detector
Eyes ship as shown, without wires attached.
Datasheets: Emitter; Detector | |
|

5-mm infrared emitter eye - $4.60/ea
Low-profile 5-mm emitter for anti-chop eye installs (this is the lowest possible profile 5-mm eye I can find). This type of eye is used in Intimidators and other markers with larger diameter eyes. This emitter is very powerful but still reasonable on batteries at the same time.
Eye ships as shown, without wires attached.

3-mm visible light detector eye - $1.60/ea
This is a 3-mm phototransistor (detector eye) that will respond to a huge range of light; this will work with both infrared emitters as well as some laser eye emitters. This detector works with any AKALMP board, Ion daughterboards (using any mainboard other than the stock or Blackheart), DM4/5/C board, Morlock, and some others.
Eye ships as shown, without wires attached.Datasheet | |
|
|
5-mm visible light detector eye - $2.90/ea
This is a 5-mm can-shaped laser eye detector that is suitable for most installs. Like the eye above, this detector will work with both infrared and visible emitter eyes. This eye has an emitter, base, and collector terminal for wiring (most boards will ignore the middle "base" terminal so you can just clip that off).
Eye ships as shown, without wires attached.

3x6-mm reflective eye - $4/ea
By my own experimentation I have found this to be the perfect eye to function with a Morlock board. It's a rectangular-shaped reflective eye, measuring 3-mm wide by 6-mm tall, with a depth of 4.6-mm. It will "detect" objects as far as 2-3 millimeters away if the object is bright and smooth enough (this is for most "digital" eye boards; analog adjustable boards will boost the detection range, however Morlock boards use a digital eye signal).
