emag battery

[soccer4minimags]

Excuse me for asking this question, I don't have an emag of my own, but how long is the battery life on an emag. Now I don't mean how long does a single charge last, but how many times can you charge and use the battery till it won't hold a charge anymore. Even the best lithium Ion batterys have a limited life, (1000 charges or so). At 80 bucks a pop, I am just curious.

I am considering a trade for an emag, however I am thinking it may be more trouble than its worth.

They are advertised at 20,000 shots off of one battery. Just from screwing around and pulling the trigger like mad, I got mine to 16,000. Sure thats 4000 off, but Im sure mine is a bit used and may not have been a full charge. And when are you gonna shoot 16,000 in a day anyways. I dont think I have shot that much...ever.

Is 1,000 charges for 80 bucks not worth it? I think a battery is 40 dollars not 80.

That AGD battery is a NIMH NOT an NICA. Better Battery it wont develope a charge memory.

Even at 500 charges[max] at one a week, thats like nine years. I have an old one 4 or 5 yrs still works perfect.

From AGD it is 80$

Mine died right before the Big Game II... I was very upset that it (the battery pack) only lasted about 3 years... I was left using either my Ebladed SFL or Black Magic... does any one have an Emag that they are parting out? $80 is a bit high for a battery pack.
