What a difference a good battery makes

[Dusti69]

ok so heres a battery question then. i got a kraken ak and it looks like it comes with an 8.4 1200 mah battery which i already have one of and two 9.6 1200mah batteries in the same shape.
does a jg ak take the same shape/size battery as the kraken one does? and if so should i be ok for batteries then?
im just wondering cuz i heard the good aegs like jg and tm dont come with batteries.

The H stands for Hours, so mAH is related to time

[Dusti69]

miliamp per hour then right?

Its dependant on the company and gun. I believe the 416 series came as a full set up, high cap, gun, batt and charger.

ok heres the jg ak i want.

i see a charger but no battery. being that theres a charger there has to be a battery right?

i have two of these batteries and an 8.4 one like them

The battery is likely there, probably already in the stock or in underneath the styrofoam. If you dont know, That charger won't work in canada since its a 220V and a different plug system altogether. Sharp lookin AK tho man, look even better with an aftermarket metal body.

i dont have to worry about that since im in the states but what i really wanna know is if the existing batteries would work in it and how well.
being that those batteries are almost 30 bucks a pop id hate to have to go buy new ones that probly cost even more

Lol! We use the same powergrids, FYI.

You'll need a new charger.

Lithium ion batt

NiMH, Nickel-metal hydride battery - Not affected by the memory problem, does not function good in cold.

NiCd, Nickel-cadmium battery - Can develop a memory, works alright in the cold.

Tons of info around, even seaching asc comes up with hits such as http://airsoftcanada.com/showthread....ighlight=li-po

[Dusti69]

mine appear to be the nimh's but i dont plan on using them in the cold
im just wondering if my betteries would work in that star ika zuchi rifle which looks like an m4 basically
ok im assuming that since its pretty much an m4 on the inside that it would take the same batteries as other m4s so would this battery

work in an m4 or the star ika zuchi or posiedon whichever its officially called?

im not tryin to be "spoon fed" id just like a quick and decisive yes or no that might possibly save me 75 dollars please

....aw screw it. forget i asked. i went ahead and added the lipoly and charger along with the gun. id rather be good to go than be fucked later

[TokyoSeven]

Why dont you ask the retailer where the battery is housed and what the recommended battery should be.

[Dusti69]

well basically i didnt cuz for the extra bit you get the lipoly battery and charger with it ....i dunno.... im just in a frustrated mood
