The 9-ball raceway and 5-finger Spire IR² drive allows the Spire to feed faster and more consistently while still being able to feed the worst paintballs imaginable without jamming. Improved sensors remove unnecessary pulsing and create a quieter, more efficient loader.
3-eye feeding technology continuously monitors the paint in your loader with 3 shielded infrared eyes. Two eyes monitor the ball stack, while one eye tracks the gap in between the stack across the entire feeding cycle, ensuring your marker never misses a beat.

The third generation Spire drive is constructed from a combination of nylon and flexible rubber to feed the most fragile paint on the market. The new upgraded Spire IR² drive is lighter, less bulky, and most importantly, more durable and reliable.
With secure construction and durability in mind, the Spire IR² features a durable nylon top and bottom shell that interlocks reliably every time.
The most battery efficient Spire yet, thanks to its proactive IR² feeding logic and optimized electronics. Combine the Spire IR with the Virtue N-Charge battery pack to get even better performance, reliability, and ease of use.
Upgrade with the Spire III/IV CrownSF II or Bunkerkings NTR speed feed in seconds. Not only can you swap back and forth from a lid to a speed feed, but you can now remove and clean each individual finger just as easily. Each spring finger offers the ultimate combination of feeding performance, paint retention, and sag-proof reliability.

Plug-n-play compatibility with the Virtue N-Charge rechargeable lithium ion battery The original Spire Spring Ramp is still compatible with the Spire IR², and will ramp those last few balls back into the feeding raceway when you shoot long strings at odd angles.

"Looks great works great"

"Only reason I bought the Spire 260 IR2 was because my old Spire 260 from 2014 finally stopped working because of a bad G-Force sensor. Couldn’t find the sensor So I took the hint it was finally time to upgrade after 10years of use…lol. Great upgrades with the new model but still like the OG model top cap of how it opened and came off with a manual lock/unlock button as well as the translucent back half. Overall I’m happy with my purchase. You can’t go wrong with this beast. Holds lots of paint, more intelligent than my smart phone, and just well built. Who else can say they got 10years out of their hopper with no issues? Virtue sets the standard as always. Appreciate you guys."

"Huge spire fan. I had a ir2 before the 260 came in but as a dominant back/mid player you find yourself needing a little more paint to sling. Especially if your playing woods ball. You can't go wrong with black either"
