Airsoft Canada - View Single Post - Hobbyking Batteries? aka "AEG noob needs battery advice"

I can solder and replace the connectors if needed, so that's not a big problem for me. Not sure about the fuse rating though, I've got a ton of spare fuses in the basement so if I do burn it out I'll just grab a higher rated fuse I guess.

Now that I know I don't have to worry about the discharge rate, I'll just get the highest mAh battery around $20 that fits my stock. I don't really care about the hardcase if it fits, its just the 5000 mAh hardcase is cheaper than the one without the case lol.

One last thing, is there a lipo charger you guys would recommend? I don't expect to use an AEG too often so would like to grab a cheap charger if possible. Also, are lipo charging bags necessary? I mean we technically charge lipo's all the time (iphones, laptop, etc) and batteries don't spontaneously combust on us all the time.

Hobbyking has a couple of cheap ones here (lots more on the non-airsoft specific charger page) but not sure what to look for.
