ive just bought a MP5K galaxy (i know nothing about airsoft)

i need a new battery and charger for-it

had a quick look around and can only find the 8.4v 1500mah batteries

where as the gun originaly takes a 8.4v 1100mah

can i use the 1500mah without damageing the gun?

i also need a good charger to go with-it

and advise or links would be great thanks

yeah Mah wont do anything to the gun i think lol, but you dont want to get a 10v battery or a 9.6 even as they will put more wear on the guns internals! 8.4v are good

Mah put simply is just the time the battery will last... so a 1500 will last longer than a 1100

 

[dolmar]

thanks for the replys and explanation on the battery rateing

i also need a good charger to go with the new battery

any thoughts as the price seems to vary quite abit thanks

I have a smart charger from Vapex, but im sure if you search ebay for Smart charger small tamiya then it should come up with decent ones

you can use the 1500 battery as long as it fits, mp5k's are tight, but it will also run fine on a 7.4 lipo, make sure you get a decent charger, pay's for itself in long run, something like a imax b6

Check out the componentshop they will have the battery and charger you need their I brought a basic 600mah smart charger which will charge the battery you need fine for about £10

Just a quick question. What colour is your gun? If there are multiple please list.

Hi is a galaxy MP5K all black with reflex red-dot sight

came with 3 mags 2 hi 1 low with 1 mag pouch for the folding stock

not sure what you mean by multiples??

as for the charger, will look into the imex b6

about £25 the right price for this (ebay)?

thanks for the replys

 

[MZKaleem]

i think he was checking if you were UKARA registered

about right price for the 12v version, but you need to get a 12v 5ah psu for it, about £35 for the ac version

Like I said check out the componentshop they will have everything you want/need there.

[dolmar]

thanks for the help

very informative site, seems straight forward, measured all of the battery in the gun (to be 100%)

against the measurments on the battery i wanted (all the same)

also very good over the phone with advise, so all should be good
