7.4v lipo 15c, what is the Mah ?, having the right lipo is very dependent on having the correct capacity (Mah) and "C" value. those are the things that will tell you if that battery has the amperage capacity to satisfy what your AEG is requiring to run @ optimal performance, which could be 2 totally different storys for differing AEG's, example: you are running a large spring (sp120+) in your AEG, opposed to a AEG running somthing a little more saner (m100). That AEG running the big spring will require much more amperage to complete that firing cycle than the one using the m100. Sooo this means understanding how lipos work and what there rating really means. First off take your Mah capacity: (example: 2000Mah) and times ( X ) that by the "C" value (example: 30c) =6000, now take 6000 and devide that by 1000 = 60, that is the total amperage that battery can supply, 60A, now thats alot of head room for amperage than a lipo rated 7.4 15c 2000Mah. Currently my SLR gets her juice from a 7.4v 2000Mah 20C (continuous) 30C(burst), and its perfectly at home in my CQC 552 with a 1J spring in it too, as well it spins either gun quicker than a 9.6v nimh can. hope this helps.
