MP7A1 Battery Charging Question
« on: May 12, 2006, 10:18:35 AM »
Hello all, I'm the n00b! Let the n00b jokes commence!

I just bought my first AEG. The TM MP7A1.

My question is how long should I charge the battery?

I do not read Japanese, and the flyer with the battery instructions isn't translated into english. I plugged in the charger last night and put the battery in, checked it in about 1 1/2 to 2 hours later and the battery was nice and cool, but the charger was about 4000 degrees!!! I unpluged it, tried to sleep, and have been shooting it all morning (about 200+ rounds so far), so it seems the battery received a full charge. I really didn't like how hot the charger was, so I suspect I had it plugged in too long, and I do not want to short charge the battery and give it any memory.

Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

Thanks,

I am not sure but I think the thing uses the same charger that the G18 AEP uses. If so my TM charger cuts off after it is done charging the AEP batteries. I know the batteries are the same except the TM MP7A uses a larger MA rated battery.

The batteries are different sizes, and how does the charger cut off? What happens?
