The CPS Splashzooka 65oz.

Classification: CPS | Type: LIGHT FIELD GUN

Description:  The CPS Splashzooka 65oz a good, pumpless water blaster with great shot time, good output, very good durability and interesting styling. The CPS Splashzooka 65oz is completely dependant on an active Q.F.D. for filling/pressurizing the blaster. Without an active Q.F.D., this blaster is useless. As such, it is highly recommended that any CPS Splashzooka 65oz. user should carry an additional blaster just in case a safe Q.F.D.-capable filling station is far from reach. When filling the blaster, it has an overflow valve at its top to allow excess pressure to be released (thus note which way the blaster is facing otherwise one may find oneself getting wet at the filling station).
The blaster, itself, feels very well made. One fault, however, with its design is that it is the first CPS-designated blaster without a shoulder strap. This is rather unfortunate since this would be a perfect blaster to sling over one's shoulder while using another pumpable blaster. The other thing to note about its design is that the CPS Splashzooka 65oz becomes rather back-heavy when filled. As such, the two recommendable positions to hold this blaster are either with the green-tube squeezed between one's arm and body or to hold the blaster with the green tube resting atop one's shoulder (i.e. bazooka-style).
The stream output from the CPS Splashzooka 65oz is roughly equivalent to a 2x blast. However, thanks to its rather large-pressurized chamber, its firing time is well into 30 seconds of constant firing. The stream tends only to fall off once the pressure chamber is virtually empty. One minor drawback to the CPS Splashzooka 65oz's pressure chamber design is that any residual water that is not pressurized by the CPS chamber is harder to remove when the battle is over.
Overall, the CPS Splashzooka 65oz is a great mainline blaster, able to take on most other blasters so long as there is an active Q.F.D. around. The 2x stream, however, is not as intimidating as the other CPS blaster's 5x or greater streams. This blaster is best used by those who run quickly and can take advantage of the times their enemies are pumping.

Pros: Well-built, decent reservoir, pump-free blaster. Sturdiness combined with decent output and long shot times creates a very good blaster for the soaker field.

Cons: Completely dependant on the Q.F.D. for filling/pressurizing. Somewhat back-heavy when loaded yet has no shoulder strap to make carrying easier.

Review By Tyler P. (Edited by iSoaker.com)

My brother's friend bought the Splashzooka and boy, we are sorry! That thing has awesome abilities! It looks like it has a rather small nozzle, but it packs quite a punch. Two seconds is all it takes to get someone completely drenched. If you fill it up, you have about 35 seconds of no drop off then 2-8 seconds of lower pressure. It lasts! Too bad it is only a Super Charger. When fully filled, it is a little heavy. It couldn't have hurt to put a strap on it.

Pros: Lasts, and lasts. Good fire rate. Quick fill

Cons: No sholder strap (weight). No Quick filler, no deal.
