when the spyra guns blow up
• Spyra 2 and Spyra LX F...
What is the best watergun money can buy in 2022? in the battle for most powerful watergun between the new Spyra tictok gun and the classic Supersoaker. Who will reign supreme?
if you grew up in the 90s, you will be very well aware of the supersoaker waterguns! Starting with the supersoaker 50, then into the XP series, then XXP and the CPS, finally with the quick fill nozzles of the monster series.
The Supersoaker CPS2000 Mk1 was the worlds most controversial watergun being banned for being too powerful. But now spyra are claiming that they are the most powerful watergun in the world. Did they get banned too? are their claims true or false?
There is no doubt that spyra make some amazing waterguns. Fun and exiting with their unique electric technology. But are they really the most powerful.
Which waterpistol will you buy this summer as we go into 2022? - Розваги
Ahh I can still feel the pain of getting shot in the eye with the cps 2000
Ha! The 3k is totally my favourite!
I shot a guy in the eye wit a cps 2000 once. Nicho is that you😂
And he was using the MK2. The MK1 was even more powerful!!
Got hit in the eye today and it hurt so bad
Well the boy at the end took one to the eye from the Spryra2 and he looked like he didn't enjoy it. He may have got her good in the back but she got him best in the face.
It's not just about the volume and flow rate of water. The supersoaker 50 was special because it's tiny needle beam actually *stung* a little bit.
There was also one made in the early 2000's, called Flood or something like that. Two firing modes: A thing jet that flied fast and stung, _or a total discharge of its entire water reservoir_ *in one massive, heavy shot.* You could literally drop people to the floor if they were closer than 20 feet.
That's as far as a watersoaker shotgun is ever going to get, hahahah
i had a SS 50 as kid . It was the most fun . . . and remember you could pump it many times, and not break it . . . lots of fun water gun fights . . I had the fluorescent green tank and yellow one.
Some cps blasters have that ability too (such as the 2x stream on the CPS 2700) but yeah not many can do a needle stream like that
@@Hikaru109IchijyoI broke the ss 100 at the first day by overfilling it lol. My dad put a mark on the tank which I ignored immediately. An expensive lesson at the time 😂
That's what she said.
Ah, yes the CPS 2000... I felt like the Terminator wielding that weapon of Poiseidon
I believe the first MIB movie came out that summer, me and my cousin pretended like we were them from the movie with them lol.
@@Siegefya Oh shit yeah, forgot why I conflated the two
Frrrrrrrrr
I had the toned down, smaller CPS 2100 and I was unstoppable with that thing. So I'm sure the CPS 2000 had to be awesome.
One thing I noticed about the video that he never addressed though is that he is only firing one burst and done. But at least with the 2100 you could just keep firing at nearly the same pressure until you were out of water so long as you kept pumping it.
Is it not the same on the 2000?
As long as you don’t mix the gun types in a game, both options are viable for fun. But super soaker vs Spyra, the Spyras just don’t have the output. Spyras are meant to be more realistic and conservative.
Yeah
Probably when super soaker was made the engineer have a discussion like this ( e1 " we need to make a new water gun! Any idea?" E2 "i don't know maybe more fancy aesthetic?" E3 " do you guys have in mind Pokémon? The one similar to a big turtle with to cannon on the back?" E1/2 "yes..." E3 " do you know the big water blast he shoot from his mouth like a gyser? THAT! We do that!"
@@Nekovocal that’s probably the most accurate way to say things. Basically comparing a turtle from shooting water from mouth mainly originally to a reality where it operates like a gun instead
This triggers so many memories. I had a CPS 2000 growing up and I remember how crazy it was. Boys will be boys, so we obviously found out what happens when you take a point blank shot to the face and/or scrotum. Its barely even a toy…
Still I’m sorry that something like that would never make it to market these days. Sure, the blast of water feels like a punch to the face, but we had so much fun…
It would be easy to say kids nowadays are soft, but the reality is that _it is the parents who went soft and scaredy cat:_ if their kid gets a typical kid play injury such as a scrapped knee or gets the wind knocked out them via a football kick, they make a huge fuss, drives them home, and then rallies other Karen moms to force a law prohibiting kids from playing in parks.
Or whenever you want to head squirt guns and somebody came out with a huge backpack gun everyone was running lol
Cps 2000, man...reminds me ofy childhood. My older cousin at the time worked at Walmart and was able to get super soakers and other water guns for really good prices. He'd set up our summer time water gun fights, water balloons and whatever else Walmart had. I don't remember any of us getting hurt from it. Cps 3000 I think he was able to get like 4 of those. Good times. I don't see water gun fights like that much anymore. Awesome showcase thanks for sharing.
Would have been nice to see them shooting without slow motion.
But nice soakers.
Im a super soaker collecter and know a lot about them, theres a cps 2000 mk1 which is more powerful and was the actual one that go banned(45 psi on the mk1)25 psi on the mk2 (a longer pressure chamber than yours)but there extremely rare and the bladder is known to break never use a mk1 in a soakfest. Most of the CPS guns are much more powerful than spyra 1 or 2, and will soak more than a spyra. A spyra is basicilly a gun turned into a water gun which is really cool honestly. If you want a powerful gun get a CPS, want something more modern go for the spyra. Great video though!
I had an army green, pump one, with a screw on clip. Cant find it now? They would break and spill water. had 2 or 3... it said it was made in japan or china. You may have been able to turn the pump/handle, while spraying. Looked neat
The CPS 2000 has a kick too. It presses back into you. Plus, with the 30+ ft range, you can tag opponents from a distance they , generally, couldn't hit you
Its true. Probably the best kick of all of them!
and it had a backpack too so you could have extra water. it was a beast
@@G2Bryce you are thinking the 3000. It isn't as powerful as the 2000
@@jonathanwessner3456 yep. 3000. But the power difference in gameplay isnt noticeable at all! The 3000 is my personal favourite of every gun i own.
@@jonathanwessner3456 Nope! I have both of them! And the backpacks for both. Yes there is a backpack for the 2000 but they are rare and they don't work very well. They leak, which is why they didn't stick around.
Nerf NEUTERED Super Soaker. I had so much fun with the CPS 3000, and listening to the sounds of pumping in the video really took me back. Thank you! Over here waiting on my Spyra 2 because I’m an adult now and pumping is for… kids. 😂
Yeah, the spyra is fun for sure. But pails into insignificance against a cps3000
I agree! I still have my CPS 2500 and now I have a son wants to play water guns, but all the super soakers are sad shells of what we had.
That is a super nice comparison! Thanks for the upload
No problem. Happy soaking!
Such an informative and great video!! Keep up the great work.
Fanstastic video and helpful! Spray 2 electric is epic!!
Was curious of how the SpyraTwo would hold up compared to the CPS 2000, helpful video thanks.
Thats the big question ey
I used to have a soft spot for the Flash Flood :-D At close range it was epic. Currently running a pair of Spyra 2 and I've been really impressed. You have to be a little more "tactical" than just the "all out" with the Super Soakers.
My daughter came home from school and asked if I had any water guns. I checked the garage, saw my CPS1500, and said 'nope'....
I had the cps 2000. But I put yoghurt in it. I was 12 😣. That thing was so much fun.
I have a super soaker cps 2500 and it was slightly more useful than the cps 2000 because you can fire more short shots with the 5x setting.
It is a ton of fun
The End shot, perfectly 😂
The The CPs 2000 need Comeback😊 she is unbelievable.
I loved my CPS series guns as a kid! I used to dual-wield 3000's, one pack on my back, one in front. Was hella uncomfortable to run around in, though. 😅
I busted the seals on my cps 2000. 😭
Brings back good memories . I remember we kids got into a water gun fight. And this one kid's older brother and his girlfriend were in college and they joined in. He had that super soaker CPS 2K. It stung and I got soaked from a 1-2 feet . . . All of us kids wanted one, but he said it wasn't sold as of last year as it was now illegal because he said the government thought it could cut the skin and the government said some kid got his eyeball pushed out, when fired in the face . . . he said it was a lie. He didn't let any of us use it but we loved him when he was on our team.
True story. It got banned. Hence. Spyra is not the worlds most powerful watergun as it claims.
If only we could buy the original super soakers again. Some of these Ebay listing for super soakers run just as much as a Spyra or more. Maybe I'll get lucky and find a couple on garage sales this summer. Thanks for posting these comparisons.
I have the super soaker xxp250 for sale
Bruh, that kid with the fatigues and harness carrier went full commando at his old man and sister, even throwing suppressive fire to flush dad outta his hideout, hahah. _That was pretty cool!_
He definitely earned the rights to handle the powerful 2000CPS.
Some noise panels will help prevent the voice echo from going into the microphone. Or a few blankets.
The sound of the CPS2000 … nostalgic 😫
I think the Flash Flood Max Infusion was the best of the 2000's because releasing 15 ounces of water in one massive burst was incredibly powerful, it had lots of recoil and would actually push people back. Plus the Max infusion Backpack actually gave you a whopping additional 100 Ounces of water capacity which was it's original problem.
Idk what it was called, but i had one in 1999 that had two handles and nozzles, one on each side, but they shared a central tank. It was able to dump everything in about 5 seconds and held like a gallon, or dang close to it. It sure seemed like it did at the time anyways. I was 7 and remember knocking my 4 year old neighbor over by crossing the streams and aiming it at his chest. Never seen a squirtgun like it since. It had a hose attachment and filled itself in like 5 seconds. Youd leave it attatched to the hose with the hose still on, and just run back to refill as needed. It basically just shot everything in one shot, unless you literally just tapped the triggers. It was nuts.
@@alexcrowder1673sounds like the monster XL
This is the comparison I needed! I was caught up between buying an old vintage (I owned a CPS1000 as a child) or one of these new guns that look a lot of fun. Only downside for me is that I’m in Australia and it costs a fortune to get a CPS delivered here because the only ones available are either from the UK or the US. Might have to settle for the new ones. Thanks for making this video!
No problem. Was fun to make
I remember there being something called the monster xl or something. That gun read gigantic and was the biggest gun we knew of at the time
I had a Mk1 cps 2000. Lost the Cap and my parents tossed it out...:*(
I was 6 or so when I had it...so pumping it was a pain and carrying it was also difficult. That kick when shooting it was ridiculous. Definitely made me feel like a badass anyway.
0:27 Hehe that was my gun in the 90s supersoaker wars. I still have it to this day
I heard that the super soaker 2000 banned here in Sweden as it could reach train power lines with enough water to cause a ground contact.
I had the CPS 2500 as a kid, gods I miss that gun
thanks
man i had a cps 2000 when i was a kid, totally badass
No one stands a chance against the 2000 or the 3000! 😀
That's nice... I love these water gun 🔫
Yeah super soaker over spyra all day. Although, the new spyra developements could mean next years release could be something cool.
@@ElliottRecommends Wow, sounds good 👍 Thanks for the information 🙏
I had the cps3000 as a kid. I remember at a school water fight it really sucked because it only lasted a few pumps, and it took forever to refill, which totally stopped the game.for everybody. You would be sitting there hogging the fill station for a minute while the line formed behind you. Good times!
The cps3000 had a backpack filler. You sure you dont mean the cps 2000
@@ElliottRecommends not to sound sarcastic, but yeah, I'm sure it was the 3000. You run around a field shooting that thing and it drains in about 3 minutes.
@@sorenzx1923 couldnt be. Its the only gun that you dont have to keep reloading out of all of them 😀
@@ElliottRecommends mate, im not sure what to tell you, i had a 3000 and in the heat of battle you would spend more time reloading than unloading.
@@sorenzx1923 That's cuz you shouldn't unload whole pressure chamber at once lol, if you just tap the trigger briefly with every shot it lasts for quite a bit of time.
I borrowed the spyra 2 from a friend at a festival last month(-: My bf kept stating that me wondering round with a shotgun was not an ideal situation. It was described as a semi automatic tsunami.
Hey! I liked the video alot. You needed to put up a dry sheet or target to show accuracy and total saturation amount. I have a Yellow CPS1200 and I believe its perfect because a smaller person can play with it. The CPS2000 and CPS3000 are quite heavy for a small man or women. Let alone a child, this makes them great for power. But I don't want to play water guns and in 15 minutes I can't hold or fill the gun any more. Especially when run and gunning! Please find a Grey or Yellow CPS 1200 and a few others in this category and weight them empty and full. You would get crazy views because everyone is looking for working CPSs. They were are will be king!
I actually had a mk1 when I was younger, found it at a thrift store. Unfortunately, it's bladder was split. Had I known what it could actually do, I would've tried to repair it.
Where do you get the cps 3000
It looks like you got a lot of air in the LX while you were pumping it, the reservoir you drew from wasn't quite deep enough.
How does the SuperSoaker Monster XL compare to all these?
I joined the water gun train a summer too late, and the legendary CPS 2000 wasn't at Toys R US anymore. But young me saw the biggest SuperSoaker ever made and started saving. And became the terror of the neighborhood for the few summers it lasted. That hose attachment that pressurized your gun for you was a genius idea. If they could make a more durable port for that and combine it with these new gun's ability to charge up by dipping them in the pool...
I’d say its up there with the ones like the 2500/3000/2000.
Monstrous output (you can put put an overall output of 23X with both turrets at 11.5x!)
Good range and power (expected from a large cps weapon.)
Very useful for multiple situations with its many combinations of nozzles.
Capacity is 3.5L which lands it in between the cps 2700 (4L) and cps 2000 (3.1L) in capacity.
However its VERY heavy. It is a UNIT. and pumping the huge dual pressure chamber can definitely be tiring.
I love the headshot at the end of the video
The best comparison to choose a powerful water gun.
Thanks. I was surprised i couldnt find this anywhere else
Well the boy at the end took one to the eye from the Spryra2 and he looked like he didn't enjoy it. He may have got her good in the back but she got him best in the face.
Ich liebe den CPS2000 Super Soaker, unglaublich das der schon fast 30 Jahre alt ist, ich hab ihn immernoch im Keller!!!😍
I had a supper soaker 2000 and played with everyday with my mom and then one day it disappeared and never got one again I miss this
Is spyra waterproof, can it be used in the pool?
I had that purple one as a kid, it was a pain in the ass to pump that thing.
Wasn’t there a 2500 as well?
When I was as kid I was in a movie called "maniac McGee" I was like 8 or 9 and the first thing I bought with my check was this super soaker lol
You can pump out the remaining water from the Spyra LX. Mine doesn’tleak at all.
I wonder if any of them would be good to scare a mean cat away who is terrorising my moggies. 🤔
100% they would :D
The spyra ones are the most accurate
I wish I still had my CPS 3000 that I had as a kid. :D
When I was a kid in the 80s I had an electric water uzi that shot repetitive small squirts. It didn't really get anyone soaked but it was pretty neat and looked like a legit black uzi. Probably still in my mom's basement somewhere
I totally remember those! Those were the best! I was born In '85 but remebr playing with one of those at a young age. They were really cool! Totally an UZI!
@@JesusChrist_IsTruth-LoveForALL this is the same as what I had. i.ebayimg.com/images/g/Z6cAAOSwaSFhO4Cd/s-l300.jpg
I had the CPS 2500 best water gun as a kid
No super soaker 50? Real classic. I had the next series had a red water tank with two blue pressure tanks. You pumped the water into blue tank
The 50 is the classic. But was surpassed by the upgrades in the following years.
I also have the xxp250 which opperates as you describe.
If I were to take a guess, the latter blaster you described is the XP150.
I wash Hasbro would re release the cps soakers. They were so good. I still have quite a few in my collection.
Nerf bought out supersoaker. But their remakes are naff
@@ElliottRecommends they've not even tried with CPS. Hasbro owns Nerf.
the super soaker xp100 is the best thing they've released in years.
Xp50ap bests it in distance, I get 40’ easily. you have to hold the trigger forward to pump up the xp100 to match
The 50 is super misty tho
My phone to do slow motion to, but it would’ve been nice to see the guns shoot at normal speed
Jesus Christ I played with the original ones when I was in elementary school so mid 90s, I don’t think they had the back pack one when I was a kid but we talked about it and thinking it was a good idea when I was growing up. I remember the one that got banned lol that thing was gnarly for sure, we weren’t cool about squirting each other
It was obvious before and it is proven after, that electronics isn't up to the task, yet.
I owned a 2000. Back in 98 I terrorized the neighborhood kids like I was the Nemesis chasing after S.T.A.R.S. members 😈
..... STAAARS .... 🎃
STARRRZZ
Whoa-Aah.
is that a dorito around the 9:00 mark
Man, used to injure my friends all the time using the super soaker 2000.
You built their character
super soaker monster XL has joined the chat
I have one
I think I should try making my own backpack for it
@@zedig6580 I still have mine from childhood too. Even have the quick fill attactment still. #memories
You missed the Monster XL
I had the Super Soaker 2000 for about 4 years up until the CPS imploded on me.
Could not fix it.
The CPS system is just a long expandable rubber hose.
Do you still have it?
Damn I miss super soakers 😭
I got shot point blank in the eye by that thing
I had the 3000 and was a GOD on the field.
What abt super soaker monster xl
I have the 1999 one
Will try to shorten it down for you.
Huge output. Both turrets on the 11.5X nozzle is basically a 23X nozzle. However there are various other nozzle combinations and options too.
Range and power are definitely good. To be expected from a large cps weapon.
The around 3.5L capacity is pretty good too. More than the cps 2000 but far less than the 8L capacity of the 3000. The dual pressure chamber is huge though (over 1L) which is similar to the cps 2000.
It also has probably the best intimation factor out of any of the cps blasters.
However, its very heavy. Trust me it is an absolute unit. The large pressure chamber also means you need to pump a lot which CAN be tiring.
Overall yeah I’d say its up there with the cps blasters shown this video. Hope this little summary helps.
Nobody ever wanted to play anymore when I pulled out the CPS 2000 AND THE 2500 everyone ran inside their houses lmfaooo
The cps 2000 is the RL of water guns lol
The cps is a real life splatoon e-liter
People from the UK: who needs to hear me over the bird over there
I really like the counter on the Spyra but why isn't it better calibrated to the amount of water it shoots?
Well its in percentage thats why, they could easily make it a shot counter, but the design choice ended up at percentages.
@@laurenszalm7663 sure, it's just jarring to take one shot and have it drop several percent.
So the spyra lx is just a pump action shotgun to the rifle the 2 is
Make on of these cps3000 in electric, and it will be the perfect watergun
Yep! Ive been telling spyra this fpr the last 12 months. I hope they do
You need a super soaker power pak. That is the true king of the super soaker line
I used to think I was the king of my street with my cps1000 until my mate got himself the power pak. That thing was a different beast I’m glad he was on my team 😂
So what current water gun can shoot a liter of water or at least close to it?
None. Only the supersoaker cps 2000 and 3000. Ebay for those.
@ElliottRecommends well that stinks. 😆 Thank you for a reply though I appreciate it 🙏
Theres no modern (still being made) water gun that can
However there are other cps blasters that come close like the cps 2500 on the 20X nozzle
There’s also the monster XL that holds even more water in the pressure chamber than the cps 2000’s ~1L chamber (1.35L!)
With both turrets on 11.5X you will essentially have a 23X output which I believe is the 2nd highest on any super soaker (only the 2000 tops that output with its ~25-30X nozzle.)
It doesnt have as much raw power as the cps 2000 but it has plenty of nozzle combinations to choose from which gives more options in combat.
Hope this is helpful
You need to either get a new mic or film in a room with sound deadening material on the wall or something. The echo makes this video almost unwatchable. A lav mic would certainly help with the outside shots. Good luck
This is so cool but we're could I find these water guns ?
The spyra are available fron the spyra website.
Supersoakers you can get on ebay
@@ElliottRecommends thank you
I can't find the super soaker 3000 with the backpack anywhere, could anyone help ?
Are you wanting one as i have a spare one for sale
@@ElliottRecommends I absolutely do, thing is, i live in Belgium, how would that work ?
@@Khobadan its wouldnt. It would have to be collected
Yeah that's can't really happen, can it :)
Back to my original question then
Electric water guns have been around forever. Thought they did make a better one.
Y'know, we had electric water guns in the 90s too. And they were better than the spyra by a long shot. No waiting for a refill, you had replacable magazine shaped tanks for them...
Hell, even Super Soakers had replacement water tanks that you could carry
So no indication what they were called so we can see them. Just. They were. Lol
@@ElliottRecommends The old Entertech ones, man.
Microphone?!
I'm not gonna lie, I would probably have gotten one of these if I didn't just get a splatrball gun.
Still have my cps2000 nothing comes close I did have to disassemble it and redo the o rings with fresh petroleum jelly
Yeah, they're not hard to recondition. I did the same with my CPS3000
Oi, yeeew gawt a LOOOIIIICENCE FA THAT!?
First the 2000 wasn’t banned, second with quickest possible “tap” shots the 2000 has as many shots as the Spyra and for the 3000 the medium size nozzle (10x) has the best range and it’s 198 of those faster tap shots on 5x you really need to learn how to properly use a CPS cannon.
Also you’re a brave soul letting a kid use an XP 250 those things can’t take any kind of abuse I live in terror anytime a lever trigger blaster is in any hands other than my own.
Interesting perspective. But in my experience, i wouldnt agree.
@@ElliottRecommendsA CPS cannon firing valve can be fully opened and closed in 0.2 seconds if you release as soon as you fully pull it open and still hit max range. From there field life is a simple calculation of total shot time per tank in seconds multiplied by 5.
I’ve got a 2000 and a 3000 kicking around and I know what I’m saying is objectively true.
@@stephenboshears4832 Figured the FPS-playing kids of the modern generation would understand trigger discipline and not dumping your whole mag/pressure chamber.
@@ToxicAtom Tap shooting for increased field life and angling your blaster for increased range both sound obvious but are ignored very frequently. Just mastering those two skills puts you ahead of most people in water fights. Although it’s easy for others to learn them on the fly just by watching so that advantage can be short lived.
" the only way to win was to put a super soaker on each team" *sees girl face blast the boy with a full spyra shot* lmao thanks for the review sad my cps2000 broke when I was a kid, might actually buy the LX to be fair!
And where can I purchase all of these? 🤔
Spyra From their own website, and the other guns aren’t sold anywhere unless you buy it from someone who already has it they were no longer being made
The most powerful cps is the monster XL
Is that the CPS 2000 Mk1 or Mk2?
Mk1
Mk2 because the pressure gauge is similar looking to the cps 2500
@@ElliottRecommends Thanks! I had a Mk2 myself, but it was always a little difficult telling the 2 apart.
But maths..........He says it holds 3 liters , shoots a full liter every shot, and you get 5 shots per tank.
🤣
correct!
You get like 3 and a bit with the mk2 and slightly less with the mk1
The super soaker 100 is peak water gun. Simple As.
I had the 2000 3000
Entertech was the best growing up they had electric back in the 80s
