Electrum Model E Stealth 16mm Review

This paddle delivers control-oriented 55.4 MPH power, plush 16mm+ feel, spin-friendly low twist weight — a versatile option in a elongated shape.

Price: $220. Swing weight: 110. Twist weight: 5.2. Weight: 7.8 oz. Power: 55.4 MPH. Spin: 1810 RPM. Core: 16mm. Shape: Elongated. Face: Carbon.

Pros

• Elongated shape gives extra reach on defense, overheads, and two-handed backhands
• Thick core (16mm+) provides a soft, controlled feel with a large sweet spot
• Lightweight at 7.8 oz (bottom 8%) — reduces fatigue during long sessions

Cons

• Below-average power at 55.4 MPH (20th percentile, avg 56.4) — you'll need to generate pace with technique
• Limited spin at 1810 RPM (16th percentile, avg 1987) compared to newer paddles
• Low stability — twist weight of 5.2 (bottom 2%) means off-center hits will twist more in your hand
• Narrower face means a smaller horizontal sweet spot

Best For

• Players with Arm Issues: Thick 16mm core absorbs vibration while light 7.8 oz weight reduces strain
