Hi All, new to airsoft.
I picked up a slightly used Kings Arms P90
Which is supposed to use a 8.4 1600mah battery.
I went to a local shop to pick up a battery and charger.
They did not have any NiMH 8.4 batteries.
The sales guy told me I can use a 7.4 LiPo. he said it would be fine.
But this is contary to what I have read online.....

Also he sold me a cheap cheap charger "supposed to be intelligent" but it's really plain.
I asked about using a IMAX B6 balance charger and he said, those are mainly for RC control people that want to squeeze more performance out of their cars.
And that it wouldn't make much difference out of an airsoft gun.....
But I'm thinking I want to squeeze more performance our of my airsoft gun so should I have gotten that???

Dunno why he would rather sell me the cheap item :???:
