Buying laser tag equipment is a handful of decisions made in the right order. Get the first two right, where you will play and how many players you need, and the rest follows. This guide walks through each decision and links to the equipment and deeper guides for every step.
Where will you play?
The format decides almost everything else. Outdoor fields need long-range taggers with realistic shapes, headbands and scenario devices. Indoor arenas need compact blasters, vests that are easy to see in the dark and devices that fit a maze. Mobile businesses need equipment that plays anywhere with no site preparation and packs into a car. Our indoor vs outdoor laser tag equipment guide compares the two in detail.
How many players do you need at once?
Buy for the largest group you expect to host in one game. Our outdoor sets equip 10 to 12 players, enough for two teams and most bookings, and our indoor arena systems are sold for 12, 18, 24, 30 or 36 players. Single taggers and sensors of the same generation can be added later, so a club does not have to buy its final fleet on day one.
Which electronics generation fits your business?
Our current outdoor equipment comes in three generations. The 9th generation, Smart RGB, offers the best price-to-quality ratio, with statistics delivered at the end of the game. X-Generation, the 10th, adds live statistics over Wi-Fi on screens. Alphatag, the 11th, links up to seven devices to each player with Smart NFC. Our generations compared guide puts them side by side, and the rule is simple: keep a club on one generation, or check compatibility before mixing.
Which taggers?
Outdoor clubs mix classes so players can take roles: assault rifles for most players, sniper rifles for long range, sub-machine guns and pistols for close quarters and younger players. Indoor arenas use blasters built for the dark, such as the PULSAR blaster. Optics matter too: Prism is the proven classic, Parallax reaches further with a narrower hit spot, and FOKUS can be calibrated to each shooter. How laser tag works explains why.
Which hit sensors?
Headbands are light and quick to put on, which suits outdoor play and fast turnarounds; vests give a bigger target indoors. The Smart RGB headband weighs 220 g and shows where a shot came from; the Alphatag headband has five hexagonal sensors; the DEFENDER vest pairs wirelessly with the PULSAR blaster.
Which game devices?
Devices turn shooting into missions: first aid kits for respawns, digital flags and control points for objectives, and mines, grenades and bombs for scenario play. Start with two first aid kits and one objective device, then add more as you learn what your players enjoy. Our game modes and scenario devices guide maps each device to the games it enables.
What else comes with the order?
- Charging. A fleet needs chargers that keep up: the Spider charger charges six game sets at once and the Firefly charger six Smart RGB headbands.
- Control. A remote such as the Smart Nano or Smart PRO starts games and changes settings on the field.
- Statistics. 10th and 11th generation equipment needs a router for live statistics.
- Software. Our configurators are free for every generation.
- Warranty and service. Every item carries our warranty, and our service covers the equipment for its whole life.
