TECHNICAL PERUN UPDATE
A NEW DAY... A NEW KEEPING HIS EYE FIRMLY ON USABLE PERFORMANCE UPGRADES THAT CAN BE CARRIED OUT EASILY IN YOUR OWN WORKSHOP, THIS MONTH JIMMY TURNS HIS ATTENTION BACK TO PERUN AND TAKES A LOOK AT THEIR VERY LATEST DEVELOPMENTS AND WHAT THEY BRING!
I
’d like to start by thanking Perun again for offering us the chance to test their latest products, as they’re great little company working hard to bring airsoft forward and aid us in our search for perfection. You may remember a few issues back, I had the immense pleasure of reviewing a few of their fantastic Mosfets which I was very impressed with, especially the etu++. This time I got to have a look at their newly released products, the new hybrid system, both the v2 and v3 and boy, are these good! I would like to stress that we at Airsoft Action are all about open and honest opinions, no smoke and mirrors and Perun do not pay us in any way to test and review these products, we do it purely for the love of airsoft and seeing where our 6mm adventures may lead! As stated in previous articles I’m smitten when it comes to new tech; I get a real buzz when I get something new on my desk and being tasked with fitting and testing truly is an honour. I started doing a little research in lieu of their arrival, so had a small understanding of what to expect and Perun have created something I truly believe will be a choice contender. If you, as an airsofter, are searching for something that will transform your AEG, is easy to understand and operate, is of a respectable price and is going to give you an edge on the field, then look no further, as Perun has you covered. One thing I love about Perun is the fact they don’t overcomplicate things by adding features that some may see as unnecessary. They
make things simple for the users and not only do they keep it simple, they also make it cheaper than most, meaning it isn’t just aimed at the customers with bags of money. It really does prove the point that, for something to be good it doesn’t require large sums of money. By keeping it simple, I mean the fact that you don’t need anything extra for it to work properly, Perun get two-thumbs-up from me! The hybrid system has been designed to eliminate the need for a mechanical trigger system, making it much more reliable and also offer the user a whole array of features, allowing you to fully tailor your rifle to your needs - and enable the use of LiPo/Li-Ion batteries up to a whopping 14.8v which for airsoft is a huge voltage (and I’m yet to meet anyone who uses that voltage but if you feel the need rest assured the Perun can easily handle it). Information on battery capacities and “C” ratings can be found following the link supplied in the manual. Operation of these new units is fairly idiot-proof (which is a massive bonus) and it can be done on the fly, so no need for USB leads, apps, Bluetooth, or firmware. Providing everything has been fitted correctly, the hybrids work out of the box and come with factory settings already setup on parameters such as AB and LiPo alarm and trigger sensitivity; being able to adjust the parameters only makes it work better. When you look at Perun’s packaging it really is very simplistic; it doesn’t need to be fancy, it doesn’t need to be eye-catching because it’s what’s inside that
“IF YOU, AS AN AIRSOFTER, ARE SEARCHING FOR SOMETHING THAT WILL TRANSFORM YOUR AEG, IS EASY TO UNDERSTAND AND OPERATE, IS OF A RESPECTABLE PRICE AND IS GOING TO GIVE YOU AN EDGE ON THE FIELD, THEN LOOK NO FURTHER, AS PERUN HAS YOU COVERED.”
