The Planet Eclipse CF200 is a force-fed electronic loader built around straightforward controls, rechargeable power, and easy access for cleaning. It holds 215+ .68-caliber paintballs and includes both a speedfeed and rain lid.
The DRV connection
During the launch presentation, Planet Eclipse explained that it worked with CRBN on a modified version of the DRV drivetrain. The CF200 uses Planet Eclipse's own control unit and software. Its layout keeps electronic force adjustment while using LED settings in place of a rear display and timer.
Five force settings let the player adjust feed pressure. The drive paddle attaches magnetically and has rubber tips, while a spring-loaded ramp helps direct paint through the loader. These features describe how the loader is designed to work; paint quality, setup, and conditions still matter when evaluating performance.
Opening and cleaning the loader
The nylon shell separates without tools and uses a locking mechanism to secure the upper and lower halves. Inside, the drive tray lifts out so the paddle, battery, and other components are accessible. Planet Eclipse also showed grey internal parts intended to make paint residue easier to see during cleaning.
A removable aluminum feedneck provides the connection to the marker. For reloading, the included speedfeed uses spring-loaded fingers and a large opening. The rain lid provides a second option for conditions where you want the opening covered.
Battery and included equipment
The CF200 uses a removable protected Li-ion cell. A USB-C charging cable, battery-safe charging bag, speedfeed, and rain lid come with the loader. Follow Planet Eclipse's battery and charging instructions: the supplied bag does not prevent a battery fire or resulting damage.
Listed weight is 586g, or 1.29lb, including the battery. Dimensions are 240mm long, 132mm high, and 116mm wide. The three launch colors are Midnight in Black, Ghost in Grey, and Wastelands in Earth.
Price and launch timing
Planet Eclipse's US store lists the CF200 at $199.95 across the three colors. In the launch recording, Planet Eclipse targeted the beginning of January 2027 for general availability, subject to shipping. That was the target stated at the announcement. Check the current product listing for store-specific availability and dispatch information.
For a new setup, compare capacity, power preference, cleaning access, weight, and controls alongside your marker choice. Those practical differences are more useful than choosing a loader from a headline feed-rate claim alone.
