Tips / 【L-style×MONSTER】Lippoint No.5 Red 50pcs
( 5 )

The barrel used was Joker Driver's No. 5 series EXTREME model AERIAL (NO5), and the type of platform used was Phoenix.
The period of use was 3 days.

The feel is the same as a conventional lip point.
I feel that the screw hole to insert is a little deeper than the usual 2BA.
Perhaps, the depth is lengthened to make it thinner and less likely to come off?

I don't know if this is the reason, but the tip often breaks off in the middle.
I was throwing it for about 8 hours a day, and the tip broke in the middle 3 times.
It took me about an hour to remove it, probably because I was clamping the tip tight with pliers.

It might be better to buy a set of special remover and not to tighten it tightly with pliers.
Also, maybe the strength might be slightly different depending on the color.

I'm using it with JonnyEclipseNo.5 21g and MONSTER RAPIER III No.5
I've been throwing it almost every day for the past two months, and my impression is that I've had about two or three that outboarded and snapped off at the tip like an AccuTrip.
Sometimes a buddy at home who uses the same barrel JonnyEclipseNo.5 21g says
I have never experienced a threaded part breaking off and remaining in the barrel, including other colors.
I don't know if it is an individual difference of the barrel or the way of throwing, but those who say that the threads break off inside the barrel, I think it is because the barrel is tightened with pliers or something.
I think most of the barrels break when they are pulled out from the board....
My barrels are tight enough by hand and rarely loosen, so I can throw without stress.

It is not so soft and it can be used for a long time even if it gets a little soft.
I think it is cost-effective.

Compared to the No.5 white lip, I feel that it is less likely to bend and break.

It feels just like a 2BA lip and I don't notice any special discomfort.
I often hear about the middle breakage, but I personally have none.

It is a little longer than the premium lip point, which is good for those who hang their fingers on the tip.
The material itself is also harder than Premium, so it is a little harder to bend.
The tip is a little thicker than the premium tip, so I felt that it is harder to stick than the premium tip.

Personally, I would like them to be reproduced because they are better than the premium lip points.

No.5 standard, there are not many choices, but I like this non-premium lip point.
When I first saw it, I was impressed by its thinness, like somen noodles.

I think the advantage of this one is that it is longer in overall length than the premium.
Personally, I believe that the tip has an advantage in length.
Especially if you want to take advantage of the smaller diameter of the No. 5.

(Although it may not be suitable for all players depending on their throwing style.)
I have no problem with the sticking feeling on the dartboard.

However, this product has unfortunately been discontinued.
As of writing this review, only the red color seems to be in stock.
If you have not tried it yet, please give it a try.
