Battries... where did u buy?

Just curious where has every one bought their battery? Online... walk-in-store...?

Most Canadian stores are useless not supplying crane stock batteries, which Im trying to find for my new CA AEG (read sig)

Trying to find the best "bang for my buck". Anything coming through customs into Canada is going to charge me nearly double in the end for the value of the battery 0_o

My last few batteries came from here. http://www.airsoftparts.ca/store2/in...oducts_id=1781

I have a similar Sanyo battery for a Hurricane crane stock, it's a monster and it's never let me down.

Technically yes, but if you buy a battery 10$ + 5$ shipping and pay 10$ custom, it is still cheaper than a lesser quality battery you pay 45$ + shipping in Canada.

www.cheapbatterypack.com is a good place for decent battery.
If you can modify a battery pack yourself, you can go to your local hobby shop and buy a 9.6v pack made for Traxxas Rustler, Stampede or Slash. The cells are placed correctly end-to-end. You just have to open the pack and separate each stick, add wires and it will work.

Non, depends a lot on your gun.

Check inside the tube. If the plug is whitish and about 1/2" wide, it is a Large Tamiya you need.
If the plug is whitish and about 3/8" wide, it is a Small/Mini Tamiya you need.

If you are not first owner, it can also have a Dean's Ultra (T-Shaped) connector. Theses are red, easy to see.

Charge time depends on the settings on your charger...

I assume you have a charger and not a wall power supply... that would not work properly.

Cells are good enough for airsoft. I would not put theses in a RC truck... such as a E-Revo with a brushless system.

I use a Duratrax DTX 7 cell 3800mah 8.4v pack from a hobby store $50 out the door
Lipos? I suggest using www.hobbyking.com, they have 15c for ridiculously low prices, sure theres shipping and handling, but if you're buying more packs at say $12 dollars a lipo pack (3S1P at 15C and 2200 mah rated at 11.1v), the savings add up.
