I'm about to buy a cm16 SrXl and I was wondering would I be able to run a lipo battery and if so what voltage and is it worth it? Very much appreciate any links given and thoughts on the gun itself
Most airsoft guns come with mini tamiya connectors fitted for the battery. These connectors create a small amount of resistance because the current path isnt so clean. A deans connector gives a better connection so cleaner path with less resistance. The less resistance the better the power delivery to the motor when you pull the trigger. This gives you a snappier response when you pull the trigger. Some people change to lipos which have a better power delivery than nimhs but complain that they dont see a difference from the nimh battery, this is usually because they are still using the tamiya so lose some of the benefits of lipo batteries.
So basically get the connectors on your batteries and gun changed to deans to improve trigger response.
Thanks I'll definitely invest in some then also I knows it's not related but what does it mean if the gun has an electronic trigger as that's one of the big selling points of the gun?
An electronic trigger gives better response and is supposed to last longer because there is no arcing.
Thats the idea anyway. Some people like them and some dont. I personally am on the fence I think they fail just as often as normal trigger switches but you do get a snappier response.

Hes on about electronic trigger not mosfetI am assuming that the SrXL has a micro switch trigger instead of the standard connector type. Would agree with the mosfet but I would always use gate nanos.
