Normal sized tracer units vs minis

[Rogerborg]

It won't completely discharge itself, it'll shut off when the cell drops down to 3V or so.  It won't need balanced since it'll be a single 3.7V cell.

I''ve got lipo power banks that have sat around unused for months while retaining their charge.  Heck, I physically broke the charging port off of one, forgot about it for a year, then pulled it apart, salvaged the 18650 cell inside it, and brute-force charged it to 3V before bringing it up to full charge.  It's currently working fine in my backup torch.

Lipos aren't as fragile as the doomsayers say.

How do normal units compare to a hop unit tracer? I have 3 tracers but nothing that can fit an mp5 sd.

Just got a hop unit tracer, seems to work ok, Will update this once I have used it in anger.

Main advantage is it is fed off the gun's lipo, no need for extra batteries and can extend barrel into a mock suppressor.

Mine was built for the hop up, so fits fine and was factory fitted (MAxx hop up for ICS).

So single cell lipos aren't a fire risk then?

How many times have you been killed by one?

The smaller ones work fine on larger rifles, got an Xcortech Xt301 that I use on my Hi capa and my m4 also got a friend who has the lighter S which works fine too. Ive previously owned an ASG B&T tracer and the XT301 and Lighter S are much brighter and easier to use.

+1 on this.

If you need pictures of it on both M4 and pistol just let me know.
