Sorry about that Mojo. I'm generally not a tease. I'll post the X-tended version as soon as I can ;-)

Through relentless acts of discovery, I've found out that there are several types of 14500 batteries. The amperage varies wildly depending on the brand. The TrustFires I got from OMW are 750mAh, but some of the On The Way batteries go up to 5000 mAh. Those "milli-amp-hours" are what determines the total amount of current (read energy) the battery can deliver - in other words milliamps times hours of current delivery.

Here's a set that's affordable and high output 2000mAh Battery

There's a loose correlation between mAh and available current at any given moment. But it's a sure bet that the higher the mAh, the faster your motors are going to come up to speed, and the faster your darts are going to leave the barrel. Essentially, in layman's terms, mAh equals power.
