Airsoft Gun Battery Tips ! to read the number [751] Published:2016-01-06 11:07:51
Your airsoft gun battery should be the first thing you check when troubleshooting any airsoft gun that is failing to cycle. Be sure and check the fuse as well. Keep in mind that a stronger battery may be needed to cycle your gun, That will be much better.

Battery voltage (V) is determined by the number of cells in the battery pack. Multiply the number of cells by 1.2 volts to get the pack's voltage, e.g. 7 cells X 1.2V = 8.4V, 8 cells X 1.2V = 9.6V. 

The amount of voltage determines the rate of fire of the airsoft gun and how strong of a spring you can cycle in the individual airsoft gun.


Battery milliamp (mah) should be printed on the battery cells. The amount of Milli amp hours indicates the (volume of your battery) the larger the Mah rating the more reserve power your battery will store. 

This directly relates to how long you can fire your battery-powered airsoft gun for, and how long and often you will need to re-charge your battery.
