Anyone Have The Nisplay L1 Ball Machine

  • Ball Speed & Power-1 pts

    It's definitely underpowered compared to a full-size unit

  • Spin & Shot Variety-1 pts

    the top-end power settings are crazy with spin, and the comments on Kickstarter say you can't adjust it.

  • Connectivity & Controls0 pts

    The app has been mostly non-functional for me. It often shoots one ball and stops, whether I start a random feed or a specific drill.

  • Portability & Ball Storage+1 pts

    Capacity was fine, I fit around 55-60 balls.

    If you're an advanced player, I wouldn't advise it because the spin gets ridiculous at higher power.

    only one motor, so like the Slinger, topspin is permanent. You can reduce it by lowering speed, but that defeats the purpose.

  • Portability & Ball Storage-1 pts

    The hopper holds only 50 balls; with a 3.5-second return rate, you get under 3 minutes of hitting before retrieval

  • Build & Reliability-1 pts

    Durability is questionable since the body and hopper are vinyl

  • Ball Speed & Power-1 pts

    It generates more power and spin than tossing by hand, but it's less powerful than a regular ball machine that can launch the ball from one baseline to the other.

    It seems underpowered, and the ball trajectory doesn't feel like a real opponent.

  • Spin & Shot Variety-1 pts

    Maybe it's because it adds massive topspin?

  • Connectivity & Controls-1 pts

    The Bluetooth is unreliable, disconnecting and failing to reconnect.

  • Portability & Ball Storage-1 pts

    The ball capacity seems small. I loaded it up, and just as I got into a rhythm, it ran out.

    40 mph shots with college-level spin. I've lost respect for the Bryan brothers, all for the cash. To make it send the ball full court, you'd have to use an insane amount of spin.

    the topspin increases with the speed. That makes its higher speed settings almost impossible to use.

    That keeps the app and connection stable, so you don't have to keep power cycling and reconnecting.
