invert mini batteries.

[DannyVeti]

My invert mini is using batteries quite fast like i just got it and its my first gun so been playing with it a bit and it goes to orange battery quite fast which means like 50% battery and should be replaced or somethin. What would happen if i put a 9.6v paintball battery in it that I was going to use for spyder electra?

no idea mate. i know that my mini's batteries could probably last a day or two but i like putting a fresh one in every day of use. how long are you playing with it for before it gets the orange light? are you using decent batteries?

Im using crap batteries I just been playing with it at home so not long.

I have been using procell in my mini and i think i have used it about 4 times now on he same bat and no amber light yet!!

Dont know if i would use 9.6v as you will have a extra .6v going through the board that is designed to run on 9v!!

put crap in your set up you get crap out, put a dodgey batery in my ego and i went from 12 bps ramp mills legal to 44bps ramp after about 2 minutes of turning it on, to put it on training for a bit.

What are the longest lasting 9v batteries available form shops?

Energy paintball batteries are designed for markers and loaders

KK il buy some high quality batteries. BTW: on my marker the ASA on the bottom says just over 200psi but its meant to be 180-200, is somethin wrong? It says before I adjust velocity that it is on 200psi, my tank is practically empty atm tho :S

lithuim batteries also have a long life.

A teamate has the mini and uses quality duracells, gets four or five days out of each one. Don't skimp! My gun will eat a poundshop special inside a few hundred shots, yet give thousands off a decent duracell...
I wouldn't use the spyder battery. It just has a higher voltage output - it won't nescessarily last longer and may fry your board too!
