Planet Eclipse GEO R5
Planet Eclipse GEO R5
THESE MARKERS ARE IN STOCK AND READY TO SHIP
The Eclipse Geo. The iconic spool valve marker that has earned its place alongside the greatest marker platforms in the game and a worthy sibling to the mighty Eclipse Ego.
And now, the Geo has returned. More than just a collection of updates, the Geo R5 platform makes giant leaps forwards with a host of incredible new features, a brand new GR drivetrain and an ergonomic package to reignite the passion for the Geo once more.
"FROM THE WAY IT FEELS TO THE WAY IT SHOOTS... THE GEO R5 IS THE BEST GEO WE'VE EVER MADE!"
– Jack Wood Lead Designer
Through numerous iterations, the Geo has always proven to be the spool marker of choice for players seeking something truly unique. Unmatched performance, supreme efficiency and bulletproof reliability are standards famously consistent with ALL Planet Eclipse markers, but it's the peerless, buttery smooth and incredibly stable shot characteristics of the Geo R5, wrapped in a progressive design package that truly sets it apart from its rivals.
"BUTTERY SMOOTH AND STABLE - TRULY PEERLESS SHOT CHARACTERISTICS"
RE: POWERED
The IV core drivetrain had become synonymous with the Geo line. Originally developed for the iconic GSL, its launch was a defining moment for spool valve marker technology. It was the first spool valve marker to incorporate Breech Sensing technology into the drivetrain, finally pushing spool valve efficiency into the realms of poppet valve markers.
How does this Breech Sensing technology work? Simply put, it uses the pulse of air behind the ball to help close off the main valve at a predetermined valve chamber pressure. By closing off the main valve before the valve chamber is allowed to fully empty, it traps tail-end air that is at a pressure that would have no effect on the velocity of the paintball. This trapped air in the valve chamber would otherwise have been released, and wasted, down the barrel. By trapping this otherwise wasted air, it requires less air to top the firing chamber back up ready for the next shot. The result? A huge increase in efficiency, with zero downsides. It was a truly groundbreaking piece of technology in paintball marker development. But, as always, we continually push forwards to make improvements wherever possible, the result of which brings us an all new drivetrain to power the next generation of Geo fans.
The Eclipse Geo R5 introduces the GR drivetrain. A brand new design with the intent of improving every aspect of the marker's performance. From efficiency, to feel, to sound signature, to the more hands-on features such as being quicker and easier to strip, clean and maintain. Every aspect of the GR drivetrain is an improvement over that legendary IV core.
Increased internal volume, low operating pressure, improved valve profiling and breech sensing technology all combine to produce the most phenomenal shot quality with exceptional levels of efficiency.
And of course a Geo wouldn't be a Geo without an SFR. The concept of Solenoid Flow Restriction was born with the Geo, giving the user the ability to tune the bolt speed and shot profile to their own preference. The factory installed high-flow SFR provides a range of adjustment that is suitable for almost every playing condition, but in very hot environments this can be replaced with the additional low-flow SFR.
"NEW GR DRIVETRAIN - IMPROVES ON EVERY ASPECT OF ITS PREDECESSOR"
RE: IMAGINED
The rebirth of the Geo offers much more than just the new GR core. With its completely reengineered solenoid and electronics layout package, the Geo R5 takes on a form and feel unlike any previous Geo. The traditional Geo "bump" between the trigger guard and foregrip has been removed. Instead, you find an ultra-skinny body, frame, and foregrip interface that brings the front hand higher and tighter to the barrel axis. The Geo R5 also has an increased space between the trigger guard and foregrip, to suit all playing styles. The traditional visible eye covers have also been addressed to create a clean, more streamlined aesthetic for the marker. Instead, the detents and breech sensor lightpipes are now concealed behind the new foregrip.
The wraparound rear grips now house the new solenoid assembly and the latest MME electronics package that features an OLED graphical user interface, USB, and Bluetooth® module, which can be used for parameter adjustments via the relevant app, or for controlling other Bluetooth® compatible devices. As per the current generation of Eclipse markers, the body and frame separate quickly and easily with no wires, cables, or hosing between the two parts. The entire Geo R5 package has been redesigned to be a much fresher and efficient platform to be enjoyed by both players and techs alike.

RE: ALIGNED
Completing the Geo R5 performance package is the outstanding S63 Pro 3-piece barrel system, which revolutionised the levels of control and precision that our high-end markers now offer the player. With its Eclipse PWR Inserts, that have widely been adopted by other brands, this 3-piece system not only performs beyond all expectations but it empowers the user to customise their barrel setup as needed.
RE: LOADED
The Geo R5 comes equipped with a huge range of familiar features found on our latest range of high-end markers to bring the Geo right up to date, and then some. Rake adjustable trigger, AA battery supply, ultra-small POPS assembly, low-rise feedtube and our incredibly versatile Eclipse S63 Pro 3-piece barrel system complete with Eclipse PWR Inserts makes this a truly devastating blend of performance, precision, quality, stability and enviable reliability.
