About the batteries…
Actually the 9.6v variety of rechargeable battery has just surfaced
with in the last two years of paintball and in the whole battery
market in general. The misconception of not lasting too long is
really derived from poor chargers. No matter how good a battery
might be it is really hard to tell if it is not being properly and
fully charged. The charger actually is the key to this problem. The
next misconception of the 9.6v, is that the extra .6 of a volt will
blow an E-grip. This is not true. If any E-grip or after market
board is manufactured as to not handle a minimum of 10 volts and a
maximum of 12 volts than it should not be in distribution. These
E-grips and after market boards need to accommodate 9.6v because the
modern guns and grips require it. Gun techs and electrical savvy
people, will support this too. The PowerEx 9.6v rechargeable takes a
charge better, is durable, and lasts a lot longer than any other 9v
or rechargeable in paintball
As mentioned before, rechargeable batteries are only as good as the
charger. The misconceptions of battery chargers are that they take
too long, and are too expensive. Fast charging technology has now
become the standard, let’s face it no one wants to wait 8 to 14
hours to charge their batteries. The PowerEx product line of
chargers are all designed to charge fast and efficient without
damaging the batteries. They do this by a patented hardware chip
inside and patented software designed to program this chip. This
makes the chargers not only fast, but incredibly smart. The software
basically tells the hardware to allow a strong but steady flow of
power to the batteries. The batteries are topped off and the charger
knows to automatically switch to trickle charge. The Stealth 490F 9v
charger can charge in under two hours IN YOUR CAR, as well as at
home, same with the MH-C401FS AA charger.
