melasta 8.4V 1600mAh NiMH Stick Battery 2-Pack for Airsoft & RC — Mini Tamiya, Slim 20.6mm x 200mm

melasta 8.4V 1600mAh NiMH stick battery 2-pack delivers a reliable, rechargeable power source for airsoft guns and RC setups that accept Mini Tamiya connectors.

This two-battery set from melasta uses nickel–metal hydride (NiMH) chemistry and quality internal cells to give a predictable runtime, stable voltage under load, and straightforward charging options. The slim stick shape fits many battery compartments where flat packs won't, and the 16 AWG silicone lead with a Mini Tamiya female plug makes hookup easy for hobbyists and weekend racers. Before ordering, compare the pack's 20.6mm diameter and 200mm length to your gun or car's battery bay to ensure a proper fit.

How long will each battery run in an average airsoft gun?

Runtime depends on your gun's current draw and firing mode. In typical AEG setups drawing moderate current, a 1600mAh pack will supply usable shots for a session, while higher rates of fire or motor strain shorten runtime. Use the discharge rate and your gun's amp draw to estimate practical runtime.

• Capacity: 1600mAh gives a baseline charge amount.
• Discharge rate: 10C limits peak sustained output for motors and electronics.
• Voltage: steady 8.4V across the pack under load.
• Actual runtime varies with fire mode, motor condition, and gear ratio.

Can I fast-charge these batteries and how long does charging take?

melasta NiMH cells accept both standard and rapid charging; recommended rates are provided for safe use. Charging at 160mA (standard) takes roughly 15 hours to reach full capacity, while a higher 1600mA rapid charge shortens the time to about 1.1 hours. Always use a charger compatible with NiMH chemistry and monitor temperature during fast charging.

• Standard charge: approx. 160mA for 15 hours.
• Rapid charge: approx. 1600mA for 1.1 hours.
• Use NiMH-capable chargers with thermal or delta-V detection.
• Disconnect when fully charged to prolong cell life.

Will this pack physically fit inside my airsoft gun or RC vehicle?

Check the internal battery compartment dimensions before purchase—stick packs occupy length more than width. The melasta stick measures 20.6mm in diameter and 200mm long; weight is roughly 160g per pack. Compare these dimensions against your battery well and connector routing to confirm compatibility.

• Physical size: 20.6mm diameter x 200mm length (0.81" x 7.87").
• Weight: about 160g per pack for balance considerations.
• Connector: Mini Tamiya female on 16 AWG silicone wire.
• Measure internal clearance and cable path before ordering.

What safety and warranty support does melasta provide?

melasta builds these packs to NiMH standards and the cells are manufactured to avoid memory effects common to older chemistries. The product is backed by a 35-day return period and one-year maintenance support to address defects or performance problems when used as directed. Always follow charger manufacturer guidance and avoid extreme temperatures or physical damage.

• Manufactured NiMH cells designed for stable performance.
• Connector and 16 AWG silicone lead pre-attached for safe hookup.
• 35-day return window plus one-year maintenance coverage.
• Avoid short circuits, crushing, or overcharging to preserve safety.

Who is this for: This melasta 8.4V 1600mAh stick NiMH 2-pack is suited to hobbyists who need a slim cylindrical pack for tight battery wells—airsoft players, RC car racers with stick compartments, and hobby technicians looking for reliable, rechargable NiMH power with standard Mini Tamiya compatibility. If your equipment requires an 8.4V stick configuration and you can accommodate the 200mm length, this pair offers plug-and-play convenience and straightforward charging options for weekend use and practice sessions.
