ECLIPSE ETHA

The Eclipse Etha is the entry point to the Eclipse Paintball Marker range.

Electronically controlled and pneumatically driven, designed to be supremely durable, simple to use and easy to maintain, yet offer outstanding on-field performance in a lightweight high-tech package, the Etha is a marker that feels equally at home on the speedball field or getting down and dirty in the woods.

Utilising a combination of 6061-T6 aluminium and high impact glass reinforced composite components the Etha is

built to withstand the harshest abuse that even the most hardcore player can throw at it. All external aluminium

parts are anodised, and internal components are either aluminium treated with industrial hard anodising, or machined stainless steel. Reliability and durability are highly valued attributes when it comes to Eclipse products, and there is no exception here.

The Etha is built to work game after game after game with the absolute minimum of attention.

But the rugged design and built-in reliability does not mean that performance has been forgotten. Great lengths have

“THE ECLIPSE ETHA COMBINES THE FUNDAMENTAL

FEATURES EVERY PLAYER SHOULD DEMAND TO RAISE

THEIR GAME!”

been taken to ensure that even this Entry Level Eclipse marker will be able to shoot as smoothly and accurately as markers costing many times more than the Etha asking price. For example, ignoring the simplified machining on the outside, the Shaft4 barrel included with this marker is internally machined and finished to the exact same standards as you will find inside the Shaft4 barrels attached to the Ego and Geo markers. As is the SL3 regulator that controls the velocity of the Etha. Both key factors in how Eclipse markers shoot and maintain accuracy. Both identical in finish and function.

Internally, a custom manufactured high pressure solenoid drives a miniature spool assembly that meters an exact amount of air per shot through a spring return bolt system. This gives the Etha a high level of efficiency and consistency, resulting in more shots from your tank and more balls on target.

A Break Beam Sensor System in the breech that only allows the marker to fire when a ball is fully seated and ready to fire combines with a rubber tipped bolt and reduced force action to ensure that every ball is handled with the utmost care to prevent unwanted paint breakages inside the gun and barrel.

That’s more time playing and less time cleaning.

With adjustable fire modes that make it competitive in any league on the planet and accessories such as the EMC Kit, the Etha is a marker that genuinely feels just as

comfortable playing behind an inflatable bunker as it does crawling through thicket and undergrowth or attacking a fort.

Its simplicity, reliability and durability are enduring. Its versatility, simply stunning.
