The portal gun replica that you have is Atlas’ from the Portal 2 Co-op mode. In this mode Atlas’ portal gun has two blue stripes on it, and it shoots light blue and dark blue/purple portals. But your replica shoots the normal orange and blue portals.
I know this is a 4 year old comment, but I just had to reply. He has the customizable portal gun. NECA had made regular, atlas, peabody, and customizable ones that could switch between the co-op and single player colors with strips that could be magnetically held onto the portal gun. So it's just a bit of an aesthetic thing.
Everyone waiting for more #Codegasm don't worry it will be back at the end of the month. I'm waiting for my new beast machine to setup an all new development environment on before doing another episode.
One idea I'd like to see is for NECA to make a version of this where the orange translucent parts covering the lights are removable and replaceable with one of three options: Light blue for the powered-up Gravity Gun and green and magenta for the other two varieties of Xen crystal that we see in the games. Because IDK about anyone else but I like green and if I made my own Gravity Gun I would absolutely use a green crystal instead of an orange one.
Barnacules Nerdgasm Yup, there are some pretty good concepts that people have made with mini screens, they even have the inventory items that function with the buttons.

Since the light is pretty bright it would be awesome to have it permanently on as a show piece, I wonder if there is a way where you can modify the prop so you can use a power plug instead of batteries
If he were willing to pop it open it wouldn't be terribly difficult. Since this is 3 C batteries it runs on 4.5v but most devices are tolerant of a little bit over what they recommend. He could probably get away with putting a usb plug on it and just run it off a standard usb wall adapter.
I honestly love watching your videos, and all the reviews you do just expand my mind to newer and cooler things I would've probably never found on my own. I don't care what anyone says, you're an awesome TH-camr and I know you'll only get bigger and bigger as time goes on. Keep up the good work Jerry! :D
Good video man. One good thing i like about your videos is how fluently you talk. You always seam to be able to explain things clearly its like you havw a script already in your head. I hate watching videos where people are like erm errrr ermmm errr thats one problem i had. Keep up good work! Can't wait for next video :)
I've had this thing since it came out, and Im stupid and left the batteries in since then, and one day it didnt turn on and a battery had popped inside and I was sure it was dead. I put in new batteries and it was still dead. I looked up a review and found yours, and that little note about the contact tab saved me! It turned back on with new batteries :)
The thumbnail you made for the portal gun vod makes it look like you are hitting a bong!!! I love this channel you are the best! I hope all the greatest things for you and your family.
Could anybody explain to me how he change his voice i want to do that for my own video how do you do this been trying to look up how or what software :*( any body? help thanks!
I believe it's a 3d mouse. It appears to be this one: www.amazon.com/3Dconnexion-3DX-700028-SpaceNavigator-3D-Mouse/dp/B000LB7G00/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1423391321&sr=8-3&keywords=knob+mouse
gotta admit, I like the gravity gun for it's price. I know I'm a price fanatic, but from using the gravity gun myself (my friend bought it), it's really good quality :) honestly though, the box reminds me of the steel battalion box from the original xbox with that giant controller.
Pawnshop96 After reading the reviews it actually acts similar to this with sound effects and it's weight. It would be amazing if he did a review on it if he ever decided to buy one XD
Did you get a stand for the Portal gun? I saw the gun in a shop near me and they where selling the stand for about half the price of the gun it's self (I thought it was quite expensive for a stand).
last time I held one of those in my hands was a while ago. flashlights and radios I rarely use and, actually don't have... Well $#!+, I really am ill preped for the Zompocalypse. Anyway my point was merely that I would not even know where to get type-C's Cheers for the response ;)
I got a mini version of the Portal gun but now that I can't return it and get the full-size, I'm hoping that they can make a mini version of this too. Volvo plz mini-size everything!
Here is a Theory question: could you pick yourself up with the gravity gun? so holding it then pointing it to yourself and using it on yourself so you float?
Gerry invent a tool like screwdriver that when you push it into a foam box these tabs open inside the foam so you can pull this type of packaging out of its box.
Barnacules Nerdgasm I'd come up with some sorta adapter so I could remove the batteries and run it off of a usb cable. that way I could display them with the lights on. 3 c batteries is 4.5 volts so usb's 5 volts probably wouldn't even need any resistors or anything.
We should support the people that make these guns, so that one day the guns will be real high quality guns that can make portals and manipulate gravity.
That detachable handle looks hollow, if it is, is the cavity large enough to hold additional batteries? And please make more vids like this, I know now not to buy without warranty assurance.
I just found your channel a couple days ago, and I am really liking it. I don't even remember which was the first video I watched, because I have since watched a bunch of them. I love the wide variety of products and subjects you cover, and you're very entertaining as well. You're one of those very rare people who can jabber on about just about anything and still make every word interesting. Question: I've been thinking about getting a SodaStream, and I'm wondering if you are still using yours and what you think of it now? I know the CO2 canisters from the manufacturer are absurdly expensive, but have discovered you can get an adapter and use paintball canisters that only cost a couple of bucks to refill. I imagine you already know this, have you tried it? (I looked for your followup video, but couldn't find it.) We seem to be "neighbors," by the way; I live just west of Mill Creek. Since you're an ex-Microsoftie, I imagine you're on the Eastside somewhere? (Not to sound like creepy-TH-cam-stalker-guy.) :)
From one nerd to another, you should bask in the glory of sharpening your knives. I'm not saying buy wet stones and hone the edge (but you should). Just get a carbide sharpening stick. They even have them on the back of some tabletop can openers for goodness sake!
Hey Jerry, This is the first and probably only comment i'll write on youtube. I just wanted to take a few minutes out of the day to just let you know how amazing you, your family, and your channel is to me. I recently subscribed to you because for the first time possibly ever I found a guy who is real. You know you have your guys out on youtube who have great content and while I'm not saying their content is bad or unimpressive, it doesn't inspire like your work does. I can't tell you how many times I'll sit and research 3D printing, or audiophile related information or something i'd never think to look into, all due to the spark of curiosity your videos ignite in myself and I'm in many others. I sit and look at your man cave from the other end of the screen and go wow, I hope that one day I can set myself up a crazy bitching man cave too! Its just nice to see a person who is always happy, and always exploring new things to get into, and better yet you bring us along for the ride. Don't ever stop being true to yourself or this channel. You have quite the future ahead of you. Cheers, -Dominic

NECA should make the supercharged gravity gun
The initialism for the Zero Point Energy Field Manipulator (ZPEFM), sounds like the sound the gun makes in-game.
I want this but a PIP-BOY instead, but this good of quality.
I should try to 3D print a PIP-BOY and then finish it with sand paper and a really nice paint job and slide in my iPhone.
Barnacules Nerdgasm Jerry you gotta do that man! Great video as always! #Nerdgasm
Barnacules Nerdgasm Yup, there are some pretty good concepts that people have made with mini screens, they even have the inventory items that function with the buttons.

don't look at the operational end of the device

It would be trivial to make a fake battery pack that had an A/C adapter. Maybe a future #JerryRigged episode in the works.
It would be easy to just run it off a transformer
Why don't you just take it how it is?
Luke Taylor you would have to keep on swapping out batteries, with it being constantly on batteries won't last for very long at all.
Been watching your vids since last year and you never disappoint. Great video man.
Funny that his slow-mo voice sounds exactly like my math teacher's normal voice.
1:22 what is the definition of "prop" in that sentence?

I gotta agree with you! As a Half-Life 2 player, I like that Gravity Gun replica, too! I really want one, but it's so expensive! :(
I kept seeing your Instagram posts about this gun and couldn't wait for the video! FINALLY!!! :)
The thumbnail you made for the portal gun vod makes it look like you are hitting a bong!!! I love this channel you are the best! I hope all the greatest things for you and your family.

are those D/C-batteries? Who has those still lying around?
Pretty cool thing though makes you wonder how you could "not open it" for so long?

last time I held one of those in my hands was a while ago. flashlights and radios I rarely use and, actually don't have... Well $#!+, I really am ill preped for the Zompocalypse.

you're so awesome Barnacules you're my favorite you-tuber please keep making videos man
whear did you buy the portal gun plez tell me I am a big fan of half life 2

Imagine aiming the guns at each others' operational end and pulling both triggers. i assume it would be comparable to dividing by zero.

Great review, thanks, any links to purchase these props? also your link to Ultimaker 3D Printer is busted. Keep up the great vids. KO
When will you do a 2015 setup video?
Those shaders are very well written
What is the name of the background music during the start of the video?
does the portal gun come with a potatOS prop
"Pinch it off" I love it.
5 years with no like
Nice review, looks cool piece of kit definitely nerdy stuff :)
Where did you get your batknife?
Imagine chell doing tests with both the Portal gun and Gravity gun in each hand,
Is there ever going to be a half-life 3?
I didn't realize the Gravity Gun was that big in the game.
Thanks for sharing.
