Quick Question

[specter]

Basically, after I fire 1 mag with my ICS M4 (stock battery) The ROF goes from incredibly fast to ~650 rpm. It's pretty annoying and I'm just wondering if it has anything to do with the fuse inside it or if the battery is just acting up.

Your battery sounds like it is dying. How old is it?

[Iam_Hoss]

The fuse will not have any impact on increasing or decreasing your ROF. The fuse's function is just to protect the electrical components from an over load or short.

The only culprit I can think of is the battery. Motors tend to either a) work or b) not work. Fuses are either a) blown or b) not blown.

Battery's old as hell. I'll just stick in a new one. just not too much money for that kind of stuff this time around. It's probably a 3 year old one but ive maybe shot 15 hisaps through the thing and i always keep them topped off. Oh well. I'll pick up a new one at fulda. Also, would you say a bone stock ics M4 is lipo ready?

All guns can run a 7.4 lipo stock. You should be fine with that.

You keep your nimh batteries topped off? They do need to be cycled, and especially for 3 years, it's probably dead. Everything is lipo ready. Lipo ready is just a term that big business uses to sell stuff.

I might pick up a lipo then. They're around 30 bucks right? I just don't want to shred my internals if I put it in. As a matter of fact, the biggest battery I use is a 8.4 1600 mah and my stuff lasts all day.
