Re: best battery to use on CA m4
Hi Craig, I'd go with a standard 8.4v battery. If its a more expensive model you could probably go with lipo batts (7.2v) or a normal 9.6v. Depends on the actual gun. Lipo are more bang for your buck but need more maintenance. Hope it helps

Re: best battery to use on CA m4
We would really need to know the make of your M4 to say because the model of the gun is not really relevant to what amperage battery you should use.

Re: best battery to use on CA m4
Depends what variant of M4 you have as to where the battery compartment is.
Stock batteries are 8.4v NiMH types. A better bet is a 7.4v LiPo. MAH rating depends how much space you have. Stock tube batteries will be in about 1300 mAH, a front handguard in about 2200 or 2600 mAH

Make sure to read the title.
CA M4's are actually quoted in their manual as being able to use 11.1v batteries, I know mine could run on one easily enough and it was a 2007 model.

Re: best battery to use on CA m4
i think a 9.6 would do you alot better and im sure most would agree to give you better response and a higher rof without being mad lipo's requite a different charger so a 9.6 will be better if you need to ask this queston

Re: best battery to use on CA m4
I have run CA guns on 11.1's out of the box before, however if you are not able to effect your own repairs should it end in tears 7.4's are your friend until you have gained some knowledge.

Re: best battery to use on CA m4
If it's your first gun go lipo - i did and I have never looked back - lighter, charge quicker, cheaper, more charge from a given size battery...

7.4V 2600mah nunchuck LiPo if front wire to the handguard. A 1300mah equivilent if rear wired to the stock tube (though if you procure a crane stock the nunchucks are also advised).
Go LiPo, you won't regret it.
