Hiya! I think i've been a bit to optimistic about my battery size.

[Yashy]

https://www.componentshop.co.uk/11-1v-1450mah-25c-continuous-discharge-lipo-battery.html I brought this thinking it will be the right size for my new gun.. I was wrong. the battery is a THICC BOY, wont fit in my stock.

 

I Can't seem to find any other batterysize smaller, can anyone guide me a place where i can find the right 11.1v battery size? Here is me trying to stick it in..... (literally)

Maybe something like this, but you may need to change the connector.

It's hard to say without knowing all the dimensions.

ah anyway I could find that in a single? (single battery)

 

EDIT: i dont know the stocks dimensions, however I have asked the seller and he has informed me it needs to be something like this https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09TSXBDZH/ref=cm_sw_r_as_gl_api_gl_i_KZYXATAAMFKFPDFTK37F?linkCode=ml1&tag=ashley0687-20

If you bought it from componentshop & the size differs from what is on their website, then return it for replacement for one thats the correct dimensions ?

alternatively if you measured the internal size of your stock tube, & subsequently ordered the wrong size, contact them & politely ask for a return/exchange, but be prepared for a "restocking" fee etc ?

yeah I sent them a email asking for a refund, however I didn't think to ask for a correct dimensions. Thank you will ask that.

Is there a reason why you seem to have abandoned your recent topic asking for advice on a suitable battery?

 

Hudson's advice in the first reply to that topic looked to be very close to the mark as this battery appears just slim enough to fit in the buffer tube.

Do you not have a tape measure or a ruler where you can get a rough measurement?

At a guess I'd say because he didn't like the advice given so decided to ignore it, just like in every other thread he started.

 

@Yashy I'm not being funny but if you're going to ask questions only to ignore the replies dont be surprised if pretty soon nobody wants to help you

I have that battery.  The dimensions given on the website are correct; there is no way it is going up a standard buffer tube.

This will definitely go in a buffer tube (I have just tried it):

I have the 1300 mAh version of that, which has a smaller cross section and will not fit in my only rifle with a buffer tube.

To actually be helpful for once... my AK 'hole' was a bit tight (oo-er) so I got a couple of these from ebay that fit great...

 

I imagine they'll even fit in an AR15 butt stock too but I've not tried yet.

Those are great for AKs if the gun is ok on a 7.4.

 

This is one in my only M4 with a buffer tube; however, it is a G&G and the screw plate is a long way up the tube.  It fits perfectly in the lad’s M4 though as that has the screw right down the end of the buffer tube.

Yeah I was looking into this https://www.componentshop.co.uk/11-1v-1300mah-15c-continuous-discharge-lipo-airsoft-battery-123mm-long.html This may fit, gonna buy the rebel one first though and see if that will fit. 

Also, I was looking into https://www.tactical-clothing.co.uk/product/titan-power-version-70-111v-3000mah-li-ion-nunchuck-battery-deans-connection-215479?gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAiAjp-7BhBZEiwAmh9rBSmkLsUkjVLFGT7nph_OsxCxO9vQgBMoswzHiIAd-nRmGKSDdCJ7pBoCPSMQAvD_BwE titan batteries.

 

Does anyone know why they are so expensive?!

Given the provided dimensions, the first of those will almost certainly not fit in a buffer tube.  I have pointed you at one (Rebel 11.1v 1150mAh) which will fit.  As for the Rebel 1450mAh, I will repeat that I have the 1300mAh version of that, which is slightly smaller in cross section than the provided dimensions of the 1450mAh but possibly the same nominal dimensions, and it cannot be shoved into either of the two buffer tubes that I have access to.

Li-ion batteries are overpriced and not ideal for airsoft; there is no way on this planet that one is going in your buffer tube.

I and others have tried to help you, yet you seem to be ignoring whatever anyone tells you and are just throwing up different batteries at random.  This is my last post on this thread.

thank you! I will look into that! If i don't find a battery that will fit or will fit but i may need to buy 1 or 2 to make sure i got the juice on the gameday, the gun takes standard m4 stocks, so I'll just buy a stock instead.

Why not just take your gun to a store and find one that fits?

Far too sensible.

[Galvatron]

@Yashy Jokes aside, Hudson's advice may be obvious but he's spot-on.

 

Most staff at airsoft shops are approachable and happy to help - I only know of one where the owner is said to be a knob (I don't recall the name of the business).

 

It's easy to get caught in the convenience of buying online but nothing beats the hands-on experience in an airsoft store.
