Okay, I need help on this pretty fast. I got a 8.4 1500 mah battery today and I don't know how long to charge it. It says 14 hrs. but that doesn't seem right to me. It could be but I don't want to mess it up before I get a new one. If you know how long to charge one that would be great. Its a Shuangbao. I have know idea but thats what it says. Thanks, Joshjack77

PLEASE HURRY!

I reccomend buying a universal smart charger where you can buy them off ebay w/shipping 30$

Okay, but I am looking for how long to charge it.

We cannot help you without knowing the output of your charger.

Find that, divide the capacity of the battery by said output, and multiply the result by 1.4

Okay, its a 450 Ma outgoing to the battery. and this is the first time charging it. hurry!!!

I just told you how to do it. I don't know how much more I can spoon feed you.

You divide the capacity of your battery (1100mAh), by the output of your charger (450mA), and multiply the result by 1.4.

(1500 / 450) x 1.4 = battery charge time (in hours)

I'm not going to give you the answer. I'm going to make you work at least a token amount for this.

Show some initiative next time, as I can guarantee that others will not be quite so forthcoming with information.

Just charge it overnight. That's what these batteries are made for.

I looked EVERY where and couldn't find a thing. But finally I found a guy how asked the same question and someone told him. 24 hours the first time you charge it. So thanks. I just didn't want to ruin the new battery.

Hey joshjack, you shoud do what Trailblazer said and get a smart charger, only 30 bucks and an auto cut off.

24 hours?

Fine. Charge it for 24 hours.

Let me know how well that puddle of slag powers your gun.

It worked fine. I don't have the battery right now because it is at a custom batteries store. I am getting two 8.4 2300 mAh batteries.
I will right a review of it soon. When I have time to.

didn't your gun blow a fuse after you charged it that long?

No I found out it didn't. But man my battery ran out fast. The 2 new ones. I should go charge them.
