Battery FAQ

[Kos-Mos]

Dischare at 10 is an heavy load... you should try around 5A

And DISCHARGING as nothing to do with battery capacity at all... it helps maximizing battery life.

Ni-Mh packs don't need to be discharged every time.

And READ the first tread, which is the FAQ.... everything you have just asked is in there.

*get the 3000mAh pack. 2/3A cells have a better discharge capability than A cells

i have modified the upper hand guard to hold the batterie and was thinling of upgrading to a

#2708NC ATTACK PACK: 9.6v NiMH 2700mah Airsoft Nun-Chuck Battery
Connector: mini Tamiya (Marui)
Cell: Sanyo HRAUX 2700mah A
Pack Size (LxWxH): 4.00"x 1.32"x .66" (each chuck)
Discharge rate: 10amps
Or\
#E3016NC ATTACK PACK: 9.6v NiMH 3000mah Airsoft Nun-Chuck Battery
Connector: mini Tamiya (Marui)
Cell: ELITE 1500MAH 2/3 A
Pack Size (LxWxH): 4.62"x 1.32"x .66" (each chuck)
Discharge rate: 30amps


just dont want to hurt anything does the discharge rate affect anything besides the time the batt will last eg:more amps =less shots i also know that if i upgrade the spring later the 30 amps will be needed to cycle the gears

Thanks in advance for any help.

now I have a stupid question that is probably answered here somewhere If I put a 9.6 volt battery in my stock TM mp5 or stock JG M4 to increase ROF will I kill my gearbox or motor much faster than the 8.4 or will it not put much more stress on them.
Thanks!
Norm.

It will chew the stock components up really quick. Do these aeg's have the EG700 or equivalent motor ? If so then just upgrade to an EG1000. If you are persistent on using the 9.6v battery, at least upgrade the gears. If i'm wrong someone please correct me.

that sounds reasonable thanks
and no im not stuck on a 9.6 i just need a small ass batt to fit in a M4 upper handguard with the m203 on the barrel i'm gonna see today if the BB bastard 8.4 is a bit smaller than the stock JG 8.4 that i have now

Does anyone know if the chargers at WGC are compatible with the North American system, or am I going to have to buy an adapter?

You'll probably need an adapter at the very least. The other thing is Asia IIRC uses a 50Hz electrical system, we use a 60Hz. Don't know if that will make a difference, but you'd probably be better off buying a charger in North America.

[max.power]

Even something like this?

I don't know anything about the Hz electrical system, but this says 100-240 AC input. I'm just having trouble finding anything here in Fredericton. There are no hobby shops around...

[Kos-Mos]

I can order you one and ship it...

I am manager of a hobby shop.

Anything you want, I can have it.

Not sure if this has been covered before. I'm paralleling two small batteries in a fake ANPEQ. They are identical 8.4 1400mah minis and give me a crazy ROF, comparable to my large 2400 battery (which won't fit in the ANPEQ).

Can I charge them together or should I charge them seperately? I'd prefer leaving them together because I'm lazy, but I believe my TLP charger says its for 4-8 cell batteries while the batteries have 14 combined. Will my blue universal smart charger work better for charging them in parallel?

Thanks.

Charge them separately would be my advice.

[Kos-Mos]

You should charge them separately.

A Good parallel system would have all cells paired, then wired in serial, not the opposite.

would this be bad for a krakens gearbox?

the only upgrades i have in it is a G&P "explosive" piston head and a set of systema bushings
