TridentOPS Posted February 27, 2019 Posted February 27, 2019 Hello! I'm about to buy a TM HK416D, and was wondering whether (after I install a LiPo Adaptor) the gun will take 8.4v 1600mAh batteries? As everyone seems to be saying they use 7.4v online, I wanted to make sure; as I already have 2 8.4v Batteries. Thanks, T.
Supporters Prisce Posted February 27, 2019 Supporters Posted February 27, 2019 7.4V = Lipo 8.4V = Nimh The Lipo is generally considered better.
Supporters jcheeseright Posted February 27, 2019 Supporters Posted February 27, 2019 A 7.2v LiPo battery will give noticeably better performance than an 8.4v NiMh. Don't get a LiPo adapter though, just have someone solder a deans connector onto the contact bars in the stock, it'll be cheaper and provides one less point of resistance.
Davegolf Posted February 28, 2019 Posted February 28, 2019 Your NiMH batteries will work fine as a stop gap, it is a bit like putting 95ron in a Bugatti tho. You will get these improvements from running LiPo; Longer battery run time Faster trigger response Lighter weight 2 decent LiPo batteries will cost you all of £20 You will need a specialist charger however.
