Battery in RIS Handguard?

[W.I.L.F]

Can you fit a battery in an M4 RIS handguard? Any help here would be much appreciated.

Depends what kind of RIS, but generally no.

Yeah you can in the standard KAC one, has to be lipo though.

Try ********* ****.

So an 8.4v 1500 mAh battery is out of the equation?

If you get the 7.4v 1100-1200mAh lipos at the ********* **** they fit perfectly under RIS handguards!

EDIT: Cheeky monkey, as far as i know you can fit standard 8.4v batteries in MOE handguards.

Yep, but RIS handguards are much thinner.

Im also about to embark on this route. If you cant fit a standard NIMH battery under the RIS, what options are there with PEQ boxes? What sorts can you get that would fit 9.6 batteries in?

The ICS CQB Battery Box can hold a 9.6 if I remember correctly, and it's pretty compact.

Re: Battery in RIS Handguard?

I'm seriously considering getting a lipo. Besides the battery itself, what would I need to get?

Re: Battery in RIS Handguard?

a charger that can charge lipo batteries, a turnigy or imax are good choices.

Charger, leads.

The rest is pretty optional really, an alarm is a good idea, as is charging bag.
