    Emag/Xmag problem....:(

    Here's what's going on: (with the gun in electric mode and battery fully charged) When I pull the pin out to turn the electronics on everything works fine for about 5-10 seconds. After that the gun will not fire. I can still scroll through all the different modes of fire, so the electronics are still working. I can put the pin back in and immediately take it out again and it will start firing...for about 5-10 seconds.

    Without running any air through it, I can hear the solenoid clicking when I pull the trigger and then just stops working. I have to turn it off and on again for it to start working.

    Thanks in advance for any help.

        We will be seeing more and more battery related issues popping up. They are all starting to come to the end of their useful lives.

              Yep. Same thing happened to my Xmag. Picked up one of his bats and never looked back.

                I think they are all correst when they say battery , a little explaniation ; what you are doing is " load testing " the battery , it may read 18 volts with a meter after charging , but when you apply a load ( the huge E Mag solenoid ) it won't hold that voltage , it may be only 1 cell in the battery that crap , but thats all it takes
                Rig you up a 12 volt light bulb with a couple of alligator clip's , hook them to the battery & see how long it takes for the bulb to dim & go out , my bet is that it dims out much quicker than it took you to set up the lightbulb

                      Guess it's time to invest in some batteries. Thanks to all who responded, I can sleep better now.

                        hmm

                        it only takes one dead cell to cause weird issues. you seem to have atleast 2 dead cells in the battery pack you sent me (which i assume is the one you are talking about here). just wanted to give you heads up on why it was acting so.

                        BTW, get back to me as soon as you can. been trying to get ahold of you on your order.

                        -Chris
