I need a schematic of how best to wire up the UV LEDs. Also where is the best place to buy them. I really don't care if it has an electric motor. Its just going to to be so I can lend it out. I already ordered the case of glow in the dark paintballs.

Cool thanks. Welcome back.

My buddy had some super bright LEDs and we made some hoppers with them. They work great. So far we have 4 hoppers and one barrel adapter. Still plan to make two more hoppers.

I do plan to record the night games! Should make an awesome video!

Glad that the link helped out.
Did you guys use the Viewloader Revolution hoppers? I talked to a friend and we discussed using the this as glow-n-dark hopper because it already has the battery place, its also nice and shinny inside.

This hopper I had bought at EBAY. It was already painted and had UV lights installed. I just moved have of them to the bottom and feedneck. It has its own seperate on off switch. I used a black silicone I got from work to cover up the LEDs and wires.
