Positive aspects of the product (pros):	Plenty of punch
Cons:	Size and connector

Designed specifically to work with the G&P G36 aftermarket stock, these were purchased as a pair. The section in the battery pack where the cell is left out of makes space for the plate on the side of the gun to lock into the stock.

The one problem due to its size is that the stock cant be adjusted to its smallest length. Also Dean's connectors, although having a better contact have no way of securing the connection so dont bet on the battery not just falling out if you have the stock off and playing with the battery. It will not be caught by the connector, it will just drop on the floor.

This main point to note is that to ensure that the wire extender kit is put in properly and the battery is installed with the connector facing outwards, and cell space upwards. Faliure to do so will result in the stock not locking back. The incorrect way will show the battery throught the window as shown in the pics where the stock locks.

When installing the wires ensure they do not get crimped between the gearbox casing and the gun.

Overall the battery is fine although it may bother some people that the stock cant close all the way back and for those people I can only recommend a smaller battery.

Positive aspects of the product (pros):	High mAh, 9.6v for speed, and very economical price
Cons:	Doesn't allow stock to collapse completely

This is an excellent battery. I believe this is the best battery you can really buy. I bought this battery when I bought my stock. If you can fit it in another gun it works superbly when charging and during operation.
Never has burned out on me during a gameday. High mAh levels give you extra shots you will not regret. A regular mini style battery will give you around three hours of constant play if you play hard like I do. This battery has kept me going for a seven hour game and I have not needed to recharge it for testing my gun out during my time of calibrating the gearbox and adding new parts.

I find the Deans connector it requires are bettery for airsoft than the standard tamiya connectors. They are easier to fit and will not be hard to connect in tight spaces like in the G36 guns. It also will be easier to take out of your gun because it simply slides off. It will not fall out of the gun like the previous review states. Yes it could happen, but I have tried it and it has not happened on mine.

I strongly recommend this battery for not only the stock it is made for, but if you can fit it in your M16 stock, or if you want to tape it to the side of your gun please consider this battery as you will not be disappointed.
