    You forget that the tl63 was not fully functional....


    But as for the battery.... Honestly is it worth it? I dont personally think it is. You cannot shed off that much weight.

      tl63 not fully functional! what? mine works fine and there have been many other users that have had theres work fine too. there was a thread with about 15 people who said theres worked in mech and e mode.

        Yeah exactly what I said. Lets not mention the 2 cases of the trigger breaking through the frame. The fact that unless you have a setting you like that actually works in mech and emode. You cant just freely adjust the etrigger and expect it to work problem free with mech without adjusting the set screw....


        I am not saying some people dont have issues but I know at least 3 that it doesn't work "perfectly for"

          Cell count reduction...

          If you were able to reduce the number of battery cells that make up the battery I'm sure it would reduce the weight. But in this case it takes I think 14 cells to make up the emag battery. If you were to find a solenoid strong enough and sturdy enough to handle the workload without the need of so much VOltage or amperage then it may just work. I know this has been covered in previous threads but no one has posted their findings on this matter (I know there are a few out there tinkering).

            I've always liked the idea of a battery and case that was about half the size of the current one. I'm not a really heavy shooter so a battery that didn't last quite as long is of no concern to me.

                Make the battery round, the big bulky rectangular battery makes an otherwise pretty gun, pretty damn fugly............

                  i dont see why they make it like an angel battery? or they could be like matrixes and eblades and use a 9 volt battery

                    because our solenoid is FRIGGIN HUGE!! it takes a hell of a lot more force to do what ours does that what theirs does. That is the smallest 'noid AGD could use that worked reliably.

                      Then they need a smaller 'noid. Any other electro I've used has never had a problem using a Skinner type 'noid.

                        apparently an emag's noid has to do more work than a spyder or cocker's noid.

                          I seem to remember a post a long while back by AGD where he'd produced a smaller battery that provided less run time. I could be wrong - do a search.

                            Were can I find information on this battery you speak of?

                              The noid in a Hyperframe isn't that big...runs off a 9v. Get lots of shots from it. It has to handle the same load. Plus, wouldn't ULT allow for an even smaller noid?

                                Well I agree Lit Ion still can't handle 3Amp loads very well or for duration

                                Lit Poly on the other hand

                                I seem to have misplaced the manu's site but here's just one of many places the cells can be sourced http://www.edogfight.com/Catalog_page/BatteriesLiPo.htm

                                I'm not terrible interested in working on the project but thought the info might be of intrest to some of ya'll - I do love having 2 hobbies (Let's just say Lit batteries have allowed me to out fly slimers in both duration and lenght)
