When do you change your fuse for your gun
 
Hi I have a broxa mp5 8.6 battery and Im just wondering when I should change it.

Thanks

When it becomes disobedient and you kill it.

When it blows, you replace it.

Just make sure it swallows as well.

when it blows...tape a spare one inside your stock, 'cause when it blows your gun is dead.

You don't, when it dies you buy a GBBR.

when it becomes self aware...

You take it out and wire the gun without a fuse so you don't have to worry about it.

why is there a fuse if it is useless ? is it not a protection?

Nope, it's a problem waiting to happen.

The fuse works not only for a protection against mechbox damage but it also helps with figuring out what is a problem too. be it electric or mechanical. there is a thread on here that describes it. It is your choice to remove it though.

I remove the fuse on some AEG's and like to live some what dangerously :)

Yup...way outta control :)

100 for new gears or 4 bucks for fuses...your call.

Still a nice pic of your sister on your AV btw.

It's for making the gun idiot proof. If you're not an idiot, you don't need it.

If the gun doesn't fire and is locked up, don't hold down the trigger. If you have a fuse it will blow. If you don't have a fuse, it will heat up/melt the switch assembly.
If the gun doesn't fire and is locked up and you don't have a fuse, and you pull the trigger a few times there's no harm done.

1) If you don't know when to replace the fuse, you PROBABLY shouldn't jump the fuse or remove the fuse assembly.

2) If you don't understand the inner workings of an AEG, you PROBABLY shouldn't jump the fuse or remove the fuse assembly.

3) If you have very little skill or knowledge about electricity, you PROBABLY shouldn't jump the fuse or remove the fuse assembly.


I've seen WAY too many melted circuits & wires, swollen/melted batteries, contacts with huge arc holes burned in to it and melted/damaged accessories/furniture because someone thought they could "figure out" how to work with electricity but actually has zero to no electrical experience at all.

Personally, if I didn't have any electrical experience, I wouldn't be doing any work on something that I would shoulder up right beside my face!



IF you choose to remove the fuse assembly, the FIRST rule before connecting any battery, is to run a continuity test through the circuit to make sure there are no shorts (the gundoc should be doing this.)

SECONDLY, connect the battery and feel the wires and the battery itself. If you notice ANY increase in heat, DISCONNECT IMMEDIATELY. (A short circuit will result in a very sudden and fast increase in high heat.)

THIRD, if while using your gun, the action stops, DO NOT KEEP PULLING THE TRIGGER! If there is a stoppage of the motor, but current still keeps attempting to run through it, you can cause excess current load to melt your wires and even blow up the battery if you keep pulling the trigger!

Fuses are like condoms, you don't ACTUALLY need it, it's just backup safety.
All my AEG's are bareback, but they're clean, I know they haven't been in the same guncase as anyone else's dirty guns. Wouldn't want any of those ICS AEGTD's

You mean, guns, get Skankitinitis too?

ThunderCactus September 11th, 2010 21:18

Yes, then they have freaky mutant babies
