I bought the short 25mm El Style Hard Lip Black Point, but my hard dartboard at home was getting very worn out and it was hard to pull out the barrel that was stuck in the long point, so I changed it. The only thing is that it's carbon, so when it rubs against the hardboard's wailer and sticks, black shavings fall out!

Of all the conversion chips out there.
I think it's the lightest.
It weighs the same as a software chip.
It's as light as a soft tip, so you don't have to feel uncomfortable when you make the transition!
As you use it, it will get shorter and shorter.
It is better to think of it as a consumable.

I recommend it!

I bought it last September and have been using it for about 5 months.

First of all, the weight is light, so I could use it without any discomfort as I do with soft darts.

I am also satisfied with the appearance of the darts, as my darts are all black.

The stabbing is also fine, and I think it looks good when it is brand new.
Of course, it will gradually shorten with use, so it would be better to replace it at a good point.

You may be wondering how long it will last.
After 5 months of throwing it almost every day, it has become about 10mm shorter.
When it gets to this point, it will no longer stick to the board.
Is this due to the fact that it gradually gets thicker?
You can shave it down to make it thinner, but since it is a set of six, you probably don't need to go that far.
It depends on how often you throw them, but in my case, I think I can use 6 sticks for less than one year.

I am a beginner who installed a hardboard and purchased it at the same time.
At first I bought it because it's as good as a soft tip, but
The hole in the board seems to be too big to stick in the board.
I put an aluminum conversion tip on it to try it out and stuck it in and the hole was smaller.
If you are concerned about the weight and don't mind the hole in the board, I would recommend it, but if you want to take care of your board, a long and thin conversion chip would be better.

I recently started playing darts and was immediately hooked and wanted to practice at home, so I purchased this along with a bristle board. It was one of Conversion Point's highest rated products, so I chose this one without hesitation. After using it for a while, I found it to have both pros and cons.
 The pros include, first and foremost, the light weight of the conversion. If you look at the weight of other metal conversions, they are much heavier than soft dart tips, so the center of gravity is quite different. In contrast, this product is very light, and there is no discomfort at all when changing tips.
 The disadvantage, as others have mentioned, is that the sting gradually gets worse. Especially since I am a beginner, I often felt the sting getting worse after a month or so of buying it, as I often fell off the board and hit the wall or fell off and got stuck on the floor. I think a good person can make it last longer. Also, although the sticking gets worse, it is not so bad that it becomes unusable because it rarely gets bounced without sticking.
 Overall, I think it is a great replacement for soft darts tips, which do not feel uncomfortable at all. However, if cosmetics is your priority, you should buy a metal conversion. Personally, I like the black color and design of carbon because it looks cool lol.

I bought the hardware when it was introduced to the store. It sticks with no problem. Even if the barrels collide with each other, they still stick, so I use it with no problem at all. I haven't had any problem yet.

I use a Condor tip, so I really like it because the size and shape are very similar.

I have only been throwing it for about 5 days so I don't know how durable it is.
I want to get a hardboard for my home.

Just right for home practice.

The fact that you can throw it as if it were soft is good.

The only drawback is that it wears out faster than a regular hard conversion.

However, the ease of use is not a problem, so I recommend it!

I use it for practice at home (due to the soft standard hardboard). I find it very useful because it sticks well and I don't mind the change in weight. As I use it, it gets sharper and sharper and the tip gets rounder and rounder, but I can handle it with a sharpener. I think it is very good for people who mainly use soft darts like me, although there are a lot of complaints for people who mainly use hard darts. I recommend you to buy it with a hard board.

I use it at home for practicing on my hardboard.
As others have said, it will gradually chip off. However, none of ours have broken yet, so durability depends on what it is.

It wears out faster than metal conversions, but the lighter weight means that the center of gravity doesn't move as much, which is nice.
The light weight of the conversion is also good for weight shift.
