    Ive always said revvy.

    Being the V is elongated in the shortening of the word, it seems right to me.

        Revolution -> Revy just no room for an extra consonant.

          Both will do…

          Halo and Ricochet don’t hold a candle to the Googley Eyed Revolution.

          Keep all that sound activated led Battery chewing novelty angle sensing tells you when to reload crap. Give me a classic Revolution with eyes and a speed feed. It will run everything all the way up to the new high speed Mech markers those I prefer a Rotor if I’m using it competitively.

            Its pretty simple...

            Revy = 9volt
            Revvy = 12volt
            Rev = Missing battery cap
            Evvy = Missing loading lid

            Revy. One V. And never "Revi"

              Revi is the plural of Revy.

              Dangerous Power had the Rev-I, which I've seen shortened up to Revi all too frequently.

              Yup. I stand corrected. I was thinking of the eVLution. 🤦

              I think you are right, at the end of VL and through the purchase by BE was a confusing time. At one point VL200 could be either a 9VDC motorized or non-motorized just depended on which one you bought.

            I figure I say it like it rhymes with "bevy" so "revy".

              I don't see "revvie" as an option.

                  Why are 2 "v"s even an opinion? It's REVolution not REVVolution. I don't know of any rules of English that start you need to add an extra "vy" when creating abbreviations.

                    Revvy. I don’t know why but I’m not open to change.
