Seems like PE used proprietary noids in alot of their markers, i had an etha 1 that was pretty much a paper weight cause the noid went bad and you can't get into them to service it

They used almost exclusively MAC solenoids until they switched to SMC.

PE used off the shelf SMC solenoids/pilots for the etek and Gtek lines, the original etha was rebranded fabco if memory serves me correct. Started with an off the shelf Asco solenoid for the 05/06 solenoids, then proprietary solenoid for 07/08.. 09 egos and geos they went to an off the shelf bullet valve but custom solenoid spool housings.. and stayed that path until 2011 egos which had the mac solenoid with flow restrictors and CS1 saw them move over to the SMC pilot valve. Unfortunately with the Geo the plastic solenoid spool housing failed more often than the bullet valves

It seems like each time someone asks PE on their technical FB page, their response seems to scoff at the absurd idea of continuing to supply parts for a 10+ year old marker.
Yet, my Intimidator from 20 years ago still works and I can get a new solenoid for it if needed. It also does not matter that it sat for a year without the solenoid cycling which apparently is a no-no of some PE markers. Others who own even older guns can testify to this no doubt.
With that in mind, I guess PE not only makes markers but they also in the building supply industry due to the number of colorful bricks out there with their name on them.
