Re: how many batteries do you use a game?

Although one day, I had four batteries strapped onto the end of the gun. Each one was about a quarter charged

Re: how many batteries do you use a game?

after reading the previous post regarding lipo,s not lasting as long as nimh, ive just bought a 2100 7.4v and ran it all day in my 350 fps scar and it easily out lasted my two 1300 8.4v nimh mini batteries and only dropped one volt.
started day at 8.49v 3500 deliberate rounds later 7.4v with another 1v drop to go before requiring recharge to be on the safe side.
this was full auto bursts, and alot of single shotting which really hits nimh batteries hard as the continuouse cranking current required.
im new to lipo but im definatly sticking with them

that 1 mah = 1 shot is bollox

i had a 1400 mah battery and thats does me 5000 rounds

now i have a 3700mah battery and im guessing that would last for near 15000 rounds

I usually dont get through a 9.6V 1500 MaH in one day.
I have ordered a Firefox 11.1v 1200MaH LiPo so I will see how long that lasts.

Never understood people going through more than one battery in day, even a small one on my m249! But maybe its people going though auto all the time?

One 8.4v 4400mAh does me the day!

on a woodland game a 3300 large nimh will easily last allday but on urban single shot only nowhere near as long due to the constant high torque starts in single mode

Horses for courses, I play at CQB Scotland where its in your face full auto high cap madness all day and we aint ashamed of it! Even there though one 9.6v mini 1400mAh will last most of the day.

I use a large 8.4 3300mah in my m14 which last's all day easily and still has plenty of power left even after a week.

Same goes for the large 9.6 in my m60 go through more aa battries than anything lol and the 9.6 mini in my scar easily lasts all day long
