Skywin Toy Claymore for Play Games - Trip Wire and Remote Control Included for Plastic Claymore Compatible with Nerf (Black)

I was incredibly surprised with the quality of this product. The spring inside is insanely powerful and the little basin that holds the gel balls is incredibly convenient to access.I used the product with yellow rubber balls and gel balls with great success. I wouldn’t expect this to particularly hurt anyone when the claymore goes off. However, the sound of the loud spring along with the onslaught of gellets catches people by surprise and creates a super memorable reaction.A couple things to note:Since the spring is so strong, it takes a pretty strong hand to hold it down to set the claymore up. You fold both sides of the spring down and raise the plastic up which can be slightly awkward and difficult. I don’t imagine most adults to struggle with this, but children under 15 may need some help.The claymores response to the remote is pretty finicky. And because the spring is so powerful, you really don’t want to attempt to open an already loaded claymore to restart the unit. I believe the setup that has had the remote work most consistent for me was to ensure the claymore/remote was powered off and on with every use.Loading with the foam/rubber balls is slightly more difficult because you need to close the claymore with the products inside. However, gel balls can be loaded in with a feeder which makes it a bit easier. Granted, you still really need to jam the gels in with your finger, it proves to be much easier.Overall, the product is great and I really enjoy having it for wars. A few caveats that make it relatively difficult to use for some age ranges. However, teens and adults will have a great time.

it is a bit pricy but of good quality and has a good range you can put whatever will fit in it and it will launch if you're doing it inside I recommend Orbies. Good stand sometimes a little much to set up and keep up in a game if you have an airsoft field with a structure why don't you already have this? but aside from Nerf or airsoft. this is just funny barracks games, house games anything I personally never used the trip wire but the remote is a ton of fun if you have the money to burn buy it.stay groovy

The remote is a little finicky, haven’t quite figured out what the issue is yet. Sometimes you have to turn off the claymore and turn it back on, sometimes you have to turn off the remote and turn it back on, sometimes you have to do both. But when it works, it’s so great. Tripwire is a foolproof way to ensure it works, but thats not nearly as satisfying as pushing a button from across the room and surprising the hell out of your friends and coworkers. Worth the price, but if you want something that is going to work every time without fail, this is not the one to pick.

Like with most things of this nature, I had pretty low hopes... Bet me tell you, I was wrong.This thing is pretty heavy duty and durable. Almost too durable as it has metal legs/stands that I wrapped in electrical tape so it didn't scratch up our floors.The range of this item is exceptional. I've been using knockoff Nerf rival balls with excellent results. According to my 4 and 5-year-old, these don't hurt even at close range, so it's good for indoor and outdoor.I've used both the tripwire feature and the remote feature, both are flawless. The remote is pretty cool and can work from rooms away. The battery rarely needs recharging, but you will have to provide your own AA's for the remote.It is a little pricey, but it will certainly up your game. 10/10 would recommend.

This item was not at all what we had hoped for. My 11 year old son spent his own money to buy the item and it just did not work. The concept is fine, but the remote and wiring system miss the mark. I'll say that the pressure plate mechanism is pretty solid and if you want to just use trip wire it will be just fine.

I bought these for Airsoft with a specific purpose in mind. The first unit I bought I modded with magnets (so it could stick to metal walls) and added a simple door alarm (so there was an audible noise along with the discharge). The unit modded worked for over a week of testing. Then I don't know exactly what happened but the remote stopped working. I pulled out the ol' meter to track power and the remote wasn't activating the release circuit on the board. I'm not sure how I damaged it but it's fried. Unit still works but has to be set up as a trip which no one has time for so it's a visible prop now.Bought a second unit as I still wanted to try this project. Unit didn't work out of the box and promptly returned.Was hesitant but decided to buy a third unit and try again (I still want this for games). I know more about how these work now as I pulled the first one all the way apart when it stopped working, so I was much more careful and deliberate with my modding this time and I decided to make other choices for the alarm (vibration instead of magnetic connection based). We'll see how long this one lasts.The plastic is solid. It comes with attached foldable stakes that are actually really nice (3 bolts to remove which makes unit much lighter). Battery is rechargeable but the plug is weird so you have to use the charger that comes with it. The wires are thin but should do the job and are pretty well tucked into a channel secured by hot glue. The board on the unit is not well protected and this shouldn't be used if there's any chance it could get touched by liquid/rain. The spring that pushes out the darts/gel/or BBs is surprisingly strong but the spread is NOT impressive. This is more a fun prop than a useful anti personal game trap.For the price, it's not worth it. $40 for 1 or $88 for 2 (do the math on that) is too much for what you get. Don't bother unless you have extra cash and a real hankering for it. $25-$30 would be a much better ROI.All that said, I'm generally happy with this product I just don't know how long it will last....and for a device that is supposed to have a pretty violent opening action it should be more resilient for the money.
