EP Battery foregrip

[MANN]

After creating my last EP sleeper mag I thought I would offer some of the parts here on AO.

Battery foregrip (only the foregrip & internals are included in the sale):





This marker complete without barrel hopper or tank is only 40oz. My mini weighs 32oz. My Emag weighs 62oz.

Here is a rough sketch of how the foregrip is made. This sketch is not exact.



As for specs
The complete foregrip with carbon fiber outside tube weighs ~5.6oz
The complete foregrip with aluminum outside tube weighs ~6.3oz
The overall length is ~5.25" long
The outside diameter for the foregrip is 1.0"
The foregrip uses 3 batteries

The foregrip does require the rail to be drilled to allow for the wires & bolts. Here is a sample pic of the holes on the bottom of one of my rails.



There are a few ways you can order the foregrip. All foregrips include 6 X Rechargable 750mAh batteries, 1 battery charger, & 2 X top mount screws

Option A (raw)
1 X raw(unannodized) bottom cap
1 X raw(unannodized) outside tube

Option B (Carbon fiber)
1 X gloss black bottom cap
1 X Carbon fibeer outside tube

Option C (Black)
1 X gloss black bottom cap
1 X gloss black outside tube

Option A = 142 shipped via usps priority with ins
Option B & C = 152 shipped via usps priority with ins

All foregrips will include directions on installing the foregrip.

I do not have these in stock currently. The estimated time it will take is ~ 4 weeks to ship. Please post or pm me if you are intrested.

My feedback.

questions.

I have a few questions on the setup if i may ask them. maybe others are having the same.

1) what is the total voltage of the three batteries together?

2) How is charging done? i assume that the bottom "cap" would unscrew and then you just put the three batteries onto a charger?

Thank for your time,

the batteries are 3v each. When 100% charged I am getting 10.2v

Yep the bottom cap just unscrews, batteries are placed in a charger. The charger holds 2 batteries at a time.

Can you do one in a 15* slant?

shot you a PM

Josh, Awesome job. This is exactly what AOer's needs for a electropneu option...

I have hacked up ALOT of pieces to try to make 15* ones. It can be done, but it is very difficult to drill and tap holes on an angle. I am sure there are people here with better machinery/equipment that could probably do that for you. (maybe luke) I would be more than happy to sell kits with "extra material" at a discount rate if you want to try.

Thanks. That is what I am going for. A reason to put the mini/ego/shockeer/etc back in the closet, and play with a reliable, light weight, user friendly marker.

Got a few in stock

Okay, I'm just a little in the dark here. I'm assuming the batteries are powering a board and solenoid in the grip frame. Is this the case? Is this like an egomag or devilmag, or is it some new magic I've never heard of?

yep. an EP mag

[drewkroeker]

What I meant was is it using a pancake noid or an mpa3? Could we see some pics of the inside of the frame?

I love that carbon fiber foregrip, by the way.

here is some of the "how to" I started. I have pics here, but ao is lagging, and the search is not loading, but there are some here somewhere. Actually I hope this post makes it.

I have more pics somewhere on my desk/pc. I need to finish the others that I have.
