    Do you use a LiPo bag for storage or just for charging?

    Stored in a LipoSafe bag, but charged in the kitchen on a glass chopping board.

    Store in a bag, charge in an Explosion Containment Pie Dish.

    I store all my batteries in an ammo box.

    I charge on my desk.

    I know they'll blame the Post Office but retailers really are ripping us off on postage! £7 postage on a £4 part! And they wonder why we go straight to eBay!

    I have some sympathy. @ak2m4 was saying that anything not sent recorded delivery risks having buyers claiming that it never arrived, right down to £4 parts.

    Sure, the same applies to eBay vendors, and it's even easier to claim, but they tend to be set to shift enough volume to cover those losses.

    tl;dr version - people are awful, we shouldn't ought to be allowed.

    Because they found out how much airsofters pay for BB guns made in Taiwan and assume we're gullible for other products too.

    Why do we get so many soam accounts? What can we do to stop it?

    I'm just saying, maybe we should consider purchasing a black magic curse to protect us against the other spammers.

    I should have, I fell over at my site, broke my leg, waited 8 hours for an ambulance and have been sat in A&E for 6 1/2 hours waiting to be seen! ?

    Unfortunately we cannot block all the spam from china. Luckily we do not comment on social issues otherwise the CCP would use their spambots to flood the forum with junk to shut out any dissent.

    I'm convinced that the pharma-spam was down to one post I made that listed some see-aye-ess numbers for solvents, a spambot picked that up and started flooding us with ingredients for Breaking Bad, and then other spambots saw those posts and it spiralled from there.  That's how you get their attention, but I've no idea how to unget it. :(

    I hope anyone that's playing today has a good day. I'm on nights this weekend so have just got into bed. Not jealous much! ?

    Just reported a load of spam adverts, how do you report the actual account?

    Are paintball eye pro suitable for airsoft?

    Rogerborg

    With the caveat that someone might know of a specific exception, and that you should always be careful about buying generic "Paintball airsoft motorcycle adventure military action sport hobby fancy dress" gear from eBay or Amazon: yes.

    (Legit) paintball masks are full face, full seal, and have to withstand higher energies than airsoft specific gear.

    I use a Valken Annex MI-7 paintball mask with dual pane lenses that's commendably resistant to fogging.  DYE branded masks are particularly well regarded.

    Thanks, my paintball playing mate wants to have a go but wants to use his own eye pro.

    Ah, right, then yes, he'll be fine.

    SkyRC S65. It beeps when its finished charging! Nice.

    To be fair, Nuprol chargers tend to give a nice loud bang, followed by a crackling sound, and a clear olfactory notice that they've put in at least enough electrons.

    My b6 plays a little triplet.

    Bit like a Makita(?)charger.
