Quick reply please!!
 

Hey guys, just got a gun from VelocityArms, and I was wondering if the batteries come charged already? I've been charging it for maybe 10-15 minutes and it's already warm in temperature. The charger puts out 600MA and the battery is 1500 MaH, I looked into it and I should charge for about 2.5 hours, right? The battery is already getting some heat...Is this normal, or am I just overreacting? A quick reply would be great as I don't want to kill the battery on the first day! :
Thank you!

The gun HAS been fired before being shipped to ensure it's quality, so do you think the battery is already charged? Thanks!

most batteries come with a little charge not much though.
what kind of charger are you using?
whats the room temp like?
calm down

Battery: Shuangbao 1500 MAH
Charger : has no name, but it's an AC/DC Adaptor
- Input: AC110V ~ 50/60Hz
- Output: 9V = 600mA

There is also a little wire that seems like it would be used to connect the battery wire and the charger wires together...I'm not sure if this is necessary to use because it doesn't fit on, and the battery and charger fit together fine without this. Thanks:smile:

Edit:Just read your post, what type of battery?

Keep it in a cool place out of direct sunlight. You should have tested it first just to ensure, but no worry do your self a favor and check out a good charger for yourself. In the mean time touch it every ten minutes or so and see if it is hot to the touch. We are talking hot not 'wash your hands in the sink' warmish here.

Warm is ok...hot (i.e. "Fuck that's hot") is not.

Buy a good smart charger. Might sound like a lot of money, but it'll pay for itself quick in peace of mind that you're not killing your batteries (a cheapo wall charger can kill you nice new battery) and they're actually charged for when you head to a game.

Not to be to picky but how did you get an AEG after this last post

You may want to ask somebody in person before posting on the forum, you are running a big risk of getting some sever comments. FYI warm batteries are normal hot batteries are not

Well I cannot view the link you sent, it says I do not have permission to view it however this IS a shared account with my younger brother..So, I apologize in advance if he said anything stupid :p

He can't read whats in the trash.

My guess is he bought it from VA like he mentioned in the OP.

Warm battery is ok, hot isn't.

Buy a smart charger they are like $50 shipped.

Shared account eh?

Alright thank you very much, I'll be getting one of those! :D

I was about to say..doesn't that break some kind of rule or something?! :confused:

Don't be so synical......I share my account with my younger uncle all of the time, he's 12 :D

Hmmmm.....how old are you? And I see you are in Ottawa, where do you plan on playing?

Uncle?!

I got a few buddies from work who got a nice large 40+ acres of land and we're gonna be playing there for awhile.

And to the others, by shared account I meant the user on this computer is shared. My younger brother (who is 16) is into paintball and such, and he probably seen this open under the history tab and started posting some questions...I think I've only posted maybe for 4 or 5 times on here...If that...You can see by my amount of posts, it doesn't match up. I'll have a chat with him later when he gets home from school, and I apologize for any confusion guys.
