johnnyj Posted March 20, 2008 Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 Hi guys, Not sure if this has ever been done but i had a problem with the gun i'm building , m4 ca lower , madbull upper , madbull front end and G&G side folding stock .... with no place to put the battery and i hate the look of the most add on's for battery's like peq's and battery slings and ready mags .. so i had a simple thought as i only ever use low or real cap mags to place the battery in the mag So far i have an old sanyo 8.4 600mAh mini 7 sell and a nice working tm low cap mag . I have cut the inner of the low cap out and cut the spring down and made a new stop for it , its a very tight fit atm with the bare wire connections sticking out the top of the mag but so far so good ! my next task is to make a thin rubber block on the to of the mag that divides the connectors and to a mod on a old GB's wire's so when the mag is locked in there is a good connection also i now have to make a charger connection so i can charge the damn thing:P i would have pic's up but the camera i have here is so ###### it would not be worth it , but i will get some up asap with another camera as soon as get hold of it please dont flame to much hehe i was board john.

ED-SKaR Posted March 20, 2008 Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 Do you mean that you have a battery in every mag? or do you mean you have a battery that looks like a mag straped to the gun? Link to post Share on other sites
johnnyj Posted March 20, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 just cheap mini's in every mag sounds a lot i know but i have about 8 minis here that are doing nothing Link to post Share on other sites
IBICO Posted March 20, 2008 Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 I have actually thought about doing the same mod. It would do that you would not need any charging in the next 10 games or so :-D What I thought was to take vietnam type inner and put in normal size outer. Then I would have good space under to make the battery. Also make a dean-type maybe glued to the bottom on the inside so I could charge the batteries without opening the mag. It would also be possible on Mp5, but I think the short type magazines are 50 rounds or something? Link to post Share on other sites
msx361 Posted March 20, 2008 Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 Yeah but if you do a weekender or something as your batteries run low you start to run out of mags you can use. Its a good idea though. Link to post Share on other sites
johnnyj Posted March 20, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 i didnt even think of the vn mag and putting the inners in a standard size mag well never mind hehe i can get 8 1.2 cells in the middle of the of the low cap Link to post Share on other sites
DarkLite Posted March 20, 2008 Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 It was done before IIRC when someone made an G3K aaaaaaaaages ago - two contacts on the top of the mag and two corresponding ones inside the magwell. I would have though a lipo would have worked better, but to each his own. Link to post Share on other sites
IBICO Posted March 20, 2008 Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 Yeah.. The li-po is better. And if you charge the battery before a game you would probably have the battery last for a whole weekend. The mod would also make a shorter wiring and if you use good wiring you don`t need anything more then 7.4v li-po. I have got good quality li-po for my systema from China at 20$ each. But that was small size 20C batteries. In a normal aeg you could probably have 10c 1800mah that is super small. Only thing is making a charger rack to place your magazines in to charge them all at once :-D.. Maybe something like a 20mag rack or more.. Link to post Share on other sites
BigAl Posted March 20, 2008 Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 You could wire in a jack plug at the back upper of the mag for charging. Link to post Share on other sites
johnnyj Posted March 20, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 i am going to look in to the li-po's as they seem the way to go these days and bigAl thanks for the idea i'm looking for a set atm Link to post Share on other sites
jonarthur Posted March 20, 2008 Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 if your going lipo, cant you stick it in the front end ? Link to post Share on other sites
sealone90 Posted March 23, 2008 Report Share Posted March 23, 2008 Sounds like more work than it's worth. Link to post Share on other sites
