    Hi guys, i just received this today on xmas eve and it is F-ing sweet!!! The kick is amazing and the blowback is pretty cool too. Not as much kick as a WA but still really good. But heres my question, ive heard that the battery compartment is quite ****e and its hard to get a mini battery in. And this is true but i cant even get it in at all and the case on top of it. Does anyone have one of these and has some advice or am i doing something wrong. I think i need a 1 metre long battery lead or something!:)

    Its an 8.4 1250mah. I think i need a battery with an extraordinary size wire. Didnt think it was such a tight squeeze. Its the worst battery compartment i have ever seen in an aeg.

    i know it was small but tm are normal planned out with a bit of thought and battery normal go in without a problem, sounds a bit strange, what make is the battery do you have a picture?

    Its just a normal mini type battery that are the same as my other ones. Its not that the battery doesnt fit. Its just that you need a very long wire to curl arount the compartments so that it sits flat. Ill just try find a battery with a longer lead somehow.:mad:
