The XP 215

Classification: XP | Type: LIGHT/SUPPORT SIDE-ARM

Description: The XP215 is a great air-pressure-based pocket SuperSoaker(tm). Its style appears based on the XP220 and XP240, but its diminuitive size allows this blaster to go and be used virtually anywhere. Its range and capacity are excellent for a blaster this size. While its short pump does mean it requires 20 or so pumps to achieve a good pressure level, pumping is quick and easy. The trigger is depressed using one finger (perhaps using two if your hand is really small). Despite its small size, it is actually rather easy to grip and use. The transparent reservoir allows you to monitor water level easily and its shape allows basically every drop of water to be used.

While unable to thoroughly soak an opponent, the XP215 is a great surprise soak blaster for those covetted indoor water battles. Its outdoor use is more limited due to its small water capacity and thin stream size. However, the XP215 is great for annoying any colleagues from a relatively safe distance.

Pros: Pocket-sized, light weight, easy to carry, and packs decent power for its size. It also does not take too much effort to pump up the pressure chamber. The tank provides a respectable amount of water considering its rate of fire. The reservoir and tethered cap are a bonus.

Cons: Small blaster means very limited water supply and soak-power. Definitely not a blaster you can use as a primary weapon during outdoor battles. The blaster will also dribble out the nozzle if overpumped.
