Explore our wide selection of airsoft batteries, designed for various types of airsoft guns and charging equipment, to keep your gear running smoothly.

Types of Airsoft Batteries: Choose the Right Power Source

Selecting the right type of airsoft battery is crucial for performance. Below are the most common types you'll encounter:

Lithium Polymer (LiPo): Offers high energy density, lightweight design, and high discharge rates, making it ideal for high-performance airsoft guns.
Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH): Provides steady power, longer cycle life, and is more environmentally friendly compared to other battery types, making it a reliable choice for airsoft accessories.
Nickel Cadmium (NiCd): Durable and able to withstand extreme conditions, NiCd batteries are a budget-friendly option for airsoft players.
Rechargeable & Alkaline Batteries: Rechargeable batteries are eco-friendly and cost-effective for long-term use, while alkaline batteries suit low-drain airsoft accessories.

Key Battery Specifications: What to Look For

To maximize battery performance, it’s essential to consider specifications such as voltage, capacity (mAh), and discharge rate:

Voltage: Affects the overall power output of your airsoft gun. Higher voltage typically results in faster trigger response and more consistent shots.
Capacity (mAh): The higher the mAh, the longer the battery will last before needing a recharge. It’s essential for long game durations.
C-Rating: Indicates how quickly a battery can discharge its power. Higher C-ratings are ideal for high-performance airsoft guns, while lower ratings work for more casual play.
Cycle Life: Refers to how many charge cycles a battery can endure before it starts losing performance.

Charging Airsoft Batteries: Keep Them Powered Safely

Proper charging is crucial for the longevity and safety of your airsoft batteries.

Use the correct chargers designed for your specific battery type, such as balance chargers for LiPo batteries or USB chargers for smaller models.

Always use charging bags to prevent the risk of thermal runaway and other safety concerns.
