Oper8 9.6v 1600mAh Crane Stock Battery

Designed for crane stocks and handguards, the Oper8 9.6V 1600mAh Crane Stock Battery delivers reliable power in a compact split-stick form that makes tight spaces easier to fit. It’s especially useful for rear-wired M4 and AR-platform airsoft AEGs where standard mini batteries are hard to maneuver.

• Two-Part Split-Stick Design: Enables easy placement along the sides of handguards or inside a crane stock by separating into two 121mm x 19mm sticks.
• Dimensions and Weight: Stick 1 and Stick 2 each measure 121mm × 19mm; total weight 187g, helping balance in the handguard area.
• Cell Chemistry and Capacity: Built from eight 2/3A 1.2V NiMH cells, delivering 9.6V nominal with 1600mAh capacity.
• Connectors: Compatible with Deans or Mini Tamiya connectors for flexible integration with common airsoft electronics.
• Safety and Maintenance: NiMH packs are generally easier to charge and care for than LiPo; safer to charge and less prone to dramatic swelling during use.
• Charging Guidance: Best to fully discharge before recharging; use a smart charger in the 1000–2000mA range for NiMH/NiCd batteries.
• Fit and Use Case: Specifically designed to maximize space in crane stocks and to tuck into the sides of handguards, freeing up interior room for other components.

With the Oper8 9.6V 1600mAh Crane Stock Battery, you gain a space-efficient power solution that keeps your airsoft setup tidy and reliable.
