Made a stupid mistake!

My gas bottles sit empty....well until recently

Remember it is cycles that degrade batteries, so lowering to storage charge after every use, is in effect complete a single storage and doing this regularly will reduce the effective life of the battery maybe by as much as half of its expected life.

Is that manufacturer's guidance, or...

However I am just another uninformed airsofter in reality, and my opinion is not better than the next mans- so read what they manufacturer says- they probably know best

... dammit! ?

Airsoft batteries cost about as much as a bottle of BBs, and storage charge is not something that I worry about with any lithium based battery, whether it's phone, laptop, vacuum cleaner, or ebike.  I'm not making an exception for airsoft.

See dumb shit like this is why I use GBBRs.

Mags stored empty, or full, and with what gas?

They pretty much get stored as they are at the end of the day Lol. Red or green gas (whichever I've been using) but I dont top them off since I seldom run them empty , and if there are BB's in 'em they stay in 'em . In fairness I have left GBBR mags with a full BB load for extended periods and never then had an issue with the mag feeding all the BBs , although I am fussy about what BBs I put in my GBBRs

Mags empty but never not with a minimum of gas, frankly I dont really look after my stuff
