About this deal

During testing we rate Super Soakers and other water-spewing weaponry on build quality, water capacity, features and range, which we feel are the most important elements to a good water gun. Team Magnus Incog Water Guns 1,200cc: This gun had one of my favorite looks. It holds a lot of water because it's basically all capacity and no fluff. It doesn't shoot very far in comparison to our other tested units, but it'll keep you in the game for a while, taking about 1 minute, 15 seconds to empty -- even constantly shooting. Power: Typically measured in distance or PSI, a water gun’s power will play an enormous role in its overall performance and user experience. Not only is this area responsible for how far a water gun can shoot, but it will also play a massive role in determining a given model’s accuracy — especially from a distance. it as a Heavy Cannon it is still on the top ranks with the Monsters, MXLs and CPS2000s. The nozzles are each useful. The 5x is good for a long shot, the

With growing negative publicity associated with toy guns that looked like real guns (See: Larami Uzi review), both Entertech and Larami were facing tough times with their battery-powered water gun lines. Entertech was having severe financial problems and, in 1989, went out of business. Entertech never manufactured Johnson’s water gun. With the bankruptcy of Entertech in 1989, Johnson was without a manufacturer again and began to make more improvements to his gun. In 2003, the Max-D lineup was recoloured, having at least two varieties for each blaster, as well as expanded to include the Max-D Secret Strike. As well, a new line was introduced known as the EES (Electronic Enhanced Soakage). The EES lineup featured soakers that have sounds and sometimes lights+motion that is activated by pulling the blaster's trigger. Thankfully, the electronic component is not necessary for the blaster to function as a water blaster. As well, the electronic "enhancement" can also be turned off by toggling the switch to the off position. Water blasters released in 2003: Super Soaker Max-D Secret Strike, Super Soaker EES Sonic, Super Soaker EES Tempest, Super Soaker EES Turbine 2004

2008

The user-friendly reservoir improvement was first seen with blasters like the XP250 and XXP275. These blasters had a simple screw-on cap to seal closed an otherwise fully weapon mounted reservoir. This meant that only the cap needed to be removed to fill the reservoir instead of having to remove the reservoir. However, this also made it impossible for small sinks to be used to fill the reservoir since the entire blaster would need to be positioned properly beneath the water source. Thankfully, most water wars occur where hoses or larger taps are available, making this not such a major issue. The capped-reservoir has become the most prevalent reservoir system currently used. However, unlike the original designs, the caps now include a tether-anchor system to prevent the cap from wandering far from the blaster. Water blasters released in 1996: Super Soaker XP 15, Super Soaker XP 65, Super Soaker XP 105, Super Soaker XXP 175, Super Soaker XXP 275, Super Soaker CPS 2000 1997 Water blasters released in 1997: Power Soaker Super Mini Blaster II, Power Soaker Super Pumper, Super Soaker XP 85 Triple Shot, Super Soaker XP Pool Pumper Cannon, Super Soaker XP Pool Pumper Blaster 1998 Water blasters released in 1998: Power Soaker Double Bottle Blaster, Super Soaker 50: 10th Year Anniversary Edition, In 2009, the only "new Super Soaker released was a remake/redesign of the original Super Soaker SS 50 called the Super Soaker SS 50: 20th Anniversary Edition. While sharing similar overal styling, the Super Soaker SS 50: 20th Anniversary Edition features a non-removable reservoir with a screw-cap and uses an internal ball valve as the nozzle valve as opposed to the original's pinch trigger system. These changes make for a sturdier build and some improved performance. Apart from the Super Soaker SS 50: 20th Anniversary Edition, the remainder of the Super Soaker line was comprised of recolours of previous models. Water blasters released in 2009: Super Soaker 50: 20th Anniversary Edition 2009 marked the END of the "Super Soaker" - some of the later years of "Nerf Super Soaker" remain for reference Johnson and D’Andrade provided the stability needed for the continued development of the Super Soaker® series. Unfortunately, Bruce D'Andrade passed away in 1998, may he rest well. iSoaker.com owes a good part of its own existence to the success, reliability, and performance of the Super Soaker® series of water blasters. We would also like to thank Lonnie and Bruce for introducing the Super Soaker® to the world, and for continuously reinventing this now-classic toy through further enhancements and developments. Closing Thoughts Nerf Super Soaker Soakzooka: This was actually a great product, just not a category winner. Third highest soak factor, and was the only gun to actually shoot farther than its stated claims at 30 feet versus 25. In 2011, the Nerf Super Soaker line continued to expand with designs continuing to resemble Nerf-type guns. While there are many compliments on the designs of these new water blasters, because of the space limitations within these more slender builds, performance and capacity are notably reduced. One feature that two of the new models use is swappable magazines known as Clip System Canisters. Altogether, five models were introduced for 2011: Point Break, Scatter Blast, Thunderstorm, Tornado Strike, and Hydro Cannon. The Point Break is the only new model to make use of air pressure while both the Scatter Blast and Tornado Strike are pump-based blasters. The Tornado Strike features nozzles that rotate with each pump akin to the Helix (2006). The Thunderstorm is the first water blaster with the Super Soaker name to feature a motorized pump; actual output, unfortunately, falls short being outperformed even by the smaller Point Break. The Hydro Cannon is the largest of the 2011 models and features CPS-type technology, but is limited to its burst / "Flood" type large nozzle and limited reservoir capacity. While the large nozzle definitely increases the area drenched by the blast, the Hydro Cannon's range is limited since it cannot produce streams.

After a lot of research, we've discovered that the Stream Machine TL 750 might just have the longest range of all the water guns we've looked at - more specifically, it can fire "up to 70 feet", which is a whole lot more than the majority of the competition. Want a water gun that can shoot the farthest? Take a look at the Stream Machine. T3 tests water guns by buying them from retailers, filling them with water, and then shooting our friends and family with jets of H2O. Johnson and D’Andrade worked together in continuing the Super Soaker® series. Whereas D’Andrade was committed essentially full time to Larami, Johnson had a wider range of inventive interest. He periodically planted seeds of invention for D’Andrade such as the pulsating mechanism that lead to Bruce’s development of the XP (Xtra Power) valve. 1994

2003

All users whether using CPS or air pressure blasters take advantage of the 3000’s weight at the start and amount of time it takes to pump while you still can. You'll need to park yourself in or near water to get much use out of these, but that makes them great for pools or a trip to the lake. If you're building your water gun battle arsenal, think of this as the closer range maximum carnage placeholder.

More premium options offer an even stronger performance. We've yet to go hands-on with it, but the SpyraTwo has been making waves in recent years (quite literally). Indeed, the company claims that it is the "world's strongest water gun". This is thanks to an electric pump that fires pellets of water rather than the usual stream. Which water gun shoots the farthest? During the development process, Johnson designed and engineered several prototype improvements to make the gun more manufacturable. It was during this time that he decided to incorporate a blow-molded bottle on the gun as a pressure vessel. The standard process in the toy industry is to use injection molding toy components in two (2) halves and then glue them together. This approach was too unreliable for use in constructing pressure vessels. Johnson’s use of a blow-molded bottle as a pressure vessel for the gun was the single most important innovation that made low cost, mass production of the gun possible. In 2002, the Super Soaker brand. introduced the Max-D series of water blasters. While air-pressure based, these blasters feature a modified trigger and pressure chamber system based on a low-pressure head loss approach suggested by Johnson to allow these water blasters to fire farther than their predecessors. However, 2002 also saw the disappearance of Larami Ltd. as its offices and such became merged/engulfed by Hasbro Inc. bringing into question what plans Hasbro Inc had for the Super Soaker line. Water blasters released in 2002: Super Soaker Splashfire, Super Soaker Max-D 2000, Super Soaker Max-D 3000, Super Soaker Max-D 4000, Super Soaker Max-D 5000, Super Soaker Max-D 6000, Super Soaker CPS 2100, Super Soaker CPS 4100 2003 Ammo” Capacity: Though it limits portability, the volume or reservoir of a water gun will directly determine how much “ammo” it can store — a metric that will directly determine how long of a firefight one can enjoy before having to refill their weapon. In our tests, we show that the PowerShot takes the water about 11% farther, about 34 feet, 7 inches, versus the single shot at 30 feet, 10 inches. Only the Temi water gun was able to beat the single-shot distance, but Spyra comes away the distance victor with its PowerShot mode.

2005

Lonnie Johnson is also responsible for many other developments, both toy and non-toy related. He is pictured above with some of the items which would simply not exist were it not for his visions. Johnson provided the creative spark and has continued to actively provide improvements for Super Soaker®; however, the success of Super Soaker® has been a team effort. All-in-all, the entire Larami team played indispensable roles in the Super Soaker’s ® success.

In 2000, Larami Ltd. introduced the smaller brother of the SC Power Pak known as the SC Big Trouble. The SC Big Trouble also has four (4) nozzle settings, but its capacity was only about half that of the SC Power Pak. With the exception of the pumpless SC Power Pak and SC Big Trouble, all other SC enabled blasters allowed the user to choose between filling at an available Q.F.D. or by filling from a tap or hose. This sort of flexibility makes the SC based blasters quite useful on the field. However, the SC based blasters still appear to take second when it comes to sheer-soaking power when compared to the CPS series. Water blasters released in 2000: Super Soaker XP 15: 2000 Edition, If you're looking for the best water gun that balances price with power, the Super Soaker Hydra is a front-runner with few rivals. Thanks to a handle pump that unleashes a deluge of water, it'll completely drench opponents in no time at all. Although it'll get through its 65 fl oz (1.9L) tank faster than you'd expect, there aren't many alternatives within the same price range that can challenge it.In terms of power, range and soakage with practicality you can take on pretty much anything. However watch out for lighter blaster users as they can take advantage of your weight when full. As you deplete water the 3000 becomes more deadly and into the groove. Against the CPS 3000 Super Soaker XP 20, Super Soaker XP 40, Super Soaker XP 70, Super Soaker XP 110, Super Soaker CPS 1000, Super Soaker CPS 1500, Super Soaker CPS 2500, Super Soaker CPS 3000 1999 marked a new beginning for the Super Soaker line. Instead of just making water blasters, Hasbro was now launching the SoakerTag (tm) concept with a matching line of SoakerTag Super Soakers alongside. SoakerTags, themselves, are small body target devices that, when hit with a direct stream of water, will be blasted off. This device allows one to objectively determine whether a player is to be eliminated from a game or not as opposed to just soaking until everyone is dripping. The SoakerTag line of blasters, themselves, employed air-pressure or piston-pressure to power their streams. These blasters were known as the Liquidator (air), the Hydroblade (air), the Vaporizer (piston), the Helix (piston), and the Triple Aggressor (air). For small kids, Super Soaker released the Aqua Squirts line featuring small boat-shaped soakers with detachable figures atop of them. The CPS4100 was also found still in select stores, but noticeably absent was CPS-based blasters. Water blasters released in 2004: Super Soaker Aqua Squirtz H2O Racer, Super Soaker Aqua Squirtz Manta Ray, Super Soaker Aqua Squirtz Surf Speedster, Super Soaker Helix, Super Soaker Hydro Blade, Super Soaker Liquidator, Super Soaker Triple Aggressor, Super Soaker Vaporizer 2005 While Super Soaker made its debut in 1991, improvements to the design and other aspects of water blaster technology did not stop then. Since its first release, numerous new developments technologies have been added to the Super Soaker brand name. Water blaster models released in 1991: Super Soaker 30, Super Soaker 50, Super Soaker 100 1992 In 1992, Larami Ltd. marketed several varieties of water guns based on the pressurized reservoir and separate pressurized firing chamber models. Water blaster models released in 1992: Super Soaker 20, Super Soaker 25, Super Soaker 40, Super Soaker S.E., Super Soaker 200 1993
