how many batteries do you get through on a day of skirmish and what gun are you using?

Re: how many?
One.. only ever one. Whether thats an 8.4 mini in my P90 or the 9.6 4600mah battery in my M4 (you can see why that ones lasts). I guess I just dont shoot enough. I've played 3 games with that battery in my M4 without charging it in between ( I couldnt be bothered).

Re: how many?
2 9.6v at least with my F2K (1100Mah that came with it usually starts the day, gets swapped to a 1500mah for later half, and I carry a spare 1500mah) and a single 7.2v 500mah in my pistol (Cyma Desert Eagle AEP) usually lasts a while if i decide to use it.

No need for batteries just use a bolt action sniper

Re: how many?
I get through about 400 rounds a game, normally. I leave supression fire to the noobs, they seem to like it.

Re: how many?
Unless you are rather trigger happy or get bogged down in several heavy fire fights... I expect they will last you 9 games out of 10.
The rule of thumb (innacurate as it is) is still generally accepted to be 1 shot per mah. So a 1500 battery should feasably give you 1500 shots before you need to change the battery. As a rough idea, thats not too bad.

Depends how many shots you fire :D
Two 1500mah probably will be fine. If I was you though, I'd sell them two, and buy one 3300mah or higher battery. They are around £25, but then you don't have to change your battery at some point during the day! (Always when you are furthest from safe zone!)
