Why is My Orbeez Gun Not Shooting or Working?
I love to play orbeez gun games with my friends and children for fun. Sometimes it happens that I am playing an orbeez gun game and suddenly the gun stops working. Meaning, as soon as I pressed the barrel to shoot, the orbeez gun did not shoot.
So I researched this issue deeply. Then I went and found out why is my orbeez gun not shooting or working. Let’s see with me the problems due to which Orbeez Gun stops or gets jammed.
Reasons why orbeez gun not Shooting or Working?
Your Water Beads are too Old
When your water beads are too old, they will not grow properly and will remain hard, which will cause them to not work in orbeez guns. Because the older the water beads are, similarly, the ability to absorb water will decrease in them. So, whenever you buy water beads, you must check their expression date.
Your Gun is Dirty
The more you use the orbeez gun, the faster dirt and debris accumulate in the gun nozzle. So always clean your gun before using it. You can use a toothbrush, wet cloth, or toothpick to clean the nozzle of your gun.
Low Battery or Connecter issues
Whenever you plan to play a gun game, first check if the gun is charged or not. Because most guns don’t get powered without batteries. So if your gun is not able to shoot or work, check if the battery is charged or not. If there is no charge then charge or replace it. If the battery is charged up and the problem is still not resolved, always check the battery connectors to ensure that they are properly supplying current. So if the connectors are damaged, replace them, then your problem will be solved.
You’re Using the Wrong orbeez or broken
When using wrong or broken orbeez in guns, it can still cause problems in its working or shooting. Because guns can’t shoot without air pressure. The one reason for not having air pressure is always because of the use of the wrong orbeez or broken. So always use the orbeez that is made for guns and not broken.
Which ammo is right for your gun? The instruction page that you are given for that gun has a proper write-up on it that mentions which ammo you can use in it.
The Gun might not be Pressurized Properly
When your orbeez gun is not pressurized then there may be problems in its working. There are two reasons why your gun may not be pressurizing.
- If you have been using your gun for a long time, this problem can still occur.
- It also presents a problem if the water level is too low.
The solution to these problems is that you refill the water again and again, and then this pressure problem will be solved.
Problems with Wiring or Motor
A burnt-out wiring or a damaged motor will also cause the gun to stop working. So if you think your wiring is burnt somewhere and the motor is not working, take your gun to a professional repairer and the problem will be solved.
Check the Trigger Mechanism
Sometimes the trigger of your gun gets jammed due to which the gun cannot shoot, so verify that your trigger is not jammed or stuck. If you find the trigger jammed, gently move it back and forth So that whatever is causing its obstruction will come out.
Further Investigation
If after checking all these things, your problem is still the same and the gun is not working, then do one more thing for it.
The company from which you bought the gun has also given you an instruction page, so under this instruction page, separate each component of your gun and then clean it well, and then put all the components back in the same order. It will solve your problem by about 80 to 90 percent
How to fix a Jam Orbeez Gun?
You are provided with an instruction page by the gun company on which you can assemble and reassemble the guns. So by following these instructions take apart all the parts then see which part is blocked or jammed and which part is dirty remove all the blocking from that part clean these parts and reassemble. This way you can fix the jam of the orbeez gun.
5 Power Boosting Techniques For Your orbeez Gun
If you want to power up your orbeez gun even more, then I have come up with 5 techniques for you, let’s see:-
Increase Air Pressure
If the air pressure is increased in the gun, its power increases, which makes it shoot faster, but be careful not to increase the air pressure enough to damage the next one.
Upgrade to a High-Performance Bolt
The function of the bolt is to push the balls into the barrel. So if we upgrade the bolt performance, it makes a huge difference in performance, which increases the speed of the orbeez and also increases the range.
Use High-Quality orbeez
Using high-quality balls also increases the performance of the gun. If you take good quality orbeez, they will develop their shape as well and not break during the shoot. A high-quality orbeez also increases their speed significantly.
Use a Longer Barrel
If a longer barrel is used, it releases the orbeez from the gun much faster, Which greatly increases the shooting range of your gun.
Use a Higher-Quality Air Source
When using up high-quality air, also increases gun velocity and range. Always use compressed and nitrogen air, But before using high-quality air make sure your gun is compatible with it.
