Maybe post a picture of your battery and/or trying to fit the battery in the space with the lower handguard attached? Might not help but can't hurt to try.

I'll take some more photos today showing how it doesn't fit. The most frustrating part is that I only need a teeny bit of more space to get the handguard closed.

This is a very painful thread to read. Kind of like driving by a horrible car crash with bodies lying about. You don't want to look, but you can't help yourself.
All I can say is, keep trying there mate, cause an 8.4 mini will fit. I hope you are better with girls.

Everything I read regarding this (I am now an unofficial expert on this subject) is that you need a special battery to fit in this fore grip. An 11.1V split Li-Po seems to be the consensus...

As you can see, the inner barrel prevents the battery from fitting in. Notice how I can't fit the upper handguard back into the gun in any way no matter how I position the battery. And yes, the upper handguard goes in first.

i tried one today as my local site are ics stockists.
the only way a 8.4v mini will fit is by removing the short ris from the side of the handgaurd (including the plate inside).
even with this its a tight fit .
the ics was never designed to fit a mini battery, only lipo or split 8.4 custom.
only jg/marui fit a 8.4v mini as standard

I see. My next try would be one of these babies.

But I hear you need a special charger for these things, and I've got a nice charger already. Who's the person to talk to about custom batteries around here?

I sell Intellect split 8.4v 1500mAh batteries if you're interested.

I sent you a PM. I don't think those ones are going to work, though. Think I need a custom battery.

Edit: I could get one made at an RC store, right?

Well from the ICS instructions it looks like you're not meant to fit a NiMH/NiCD battery in there at all, just either a lipo inside or a battery box on the rail.

And that thing fits? Is that an ICS SiG? Also, where'd you get the battery? :P
