Hey Guys,
I want to buy a dual injector..... Would like to know what manufacture you would buy ?
Thanks

All of them are good, I have a Jacobs OLD style I love and I also have an bass tackle. The bass tackle is just heavy and bulky but a great injector.
-
I use bass tackle twin also. It would be awesome if CCM came out with one. I think Hi Rock might have came out with one. Not sure.
-
I use two CCM injectors and the 3.5 blending block from BassTackle, great for any size run. If your doing solid production buy a Shooting Star from Bears.

You like the shooting star? I was looking at it but didnt want to throw money at it till I knew it was good.
-
I like Jacobs over bears just based off of the videos. I followed the forum on bears and it seems quite buggy. Then there's no customer support for weeks or months.

I have the Jacobs one. The dual machine. I like it and I dont like it. But Jacob calls you right back to work out the kinks.

I just recently got rid of my shooting star system. I liked it but I had didn't find it to fit my actual need at that price. I now use Basstackles twin injector and Baitjunkys twin system. What I really like about the Baitjunkys system is the handle set up they have on the blending block as well as the individual handles for when you shoot the injector as a single. Both system have the pins in the tip so you don't dump the tip into your pyrex/presto pot.
Baitjunkys also has the Double Barrel Rack system that you can use on theirs and Basstackles dual injectors. It works great.

I have been working on my own system . What I want from it is rid of those stupid presto pots . Continiuos injection without stopping to clean an injector . Along with the ability to inject 2 or more colors at the same time . Through the same injector without the aid of a blending block . So far I don't think it would ever go over very well . It's liable to be the size of a jack hammer .

With the Baitjunkys Double Barrel Rack system, you can buy it with a heating system and you don't have to clean the injectors. Look at this video done by Frank. Frank uses a Basstackle twin injector system for the video.

The Baitjunkys twin injector has a handle on the blending block making it easier to move around.

I heard that Baitjunkys is coming out with a single system similar to the Double Barrel Rack but just for one injector.

Keep it simple to start! (KISS)
Bass Tackle Dual Injector with blending block.
Unless your doing a LOT of baits and need to go to one of the "production models" discussed.
Personally, I still like using laminate plates (or hand pour the belly) the best for most of my baits. The Dual Injector is more fuss that I need most of the time! I always seem to be at least one hand short whenever I'm using it!
And...I do like having two nice injectors!

I'm with Andy on this one.. I'm sure those other models are awesome if you doing production. I have one of the older twin injectors and haven't had any issues with mine, they can fussy but they have done some modifications to make the new ones a little less fuzzy.
