This is a guide on how to turn your dummy DBOYS Battery Box into a dual red laser box (and fit a lipo tri-stick batt!). ---- What you need: A gun - M16 A4 shown here. A Dboys batt box. Dremel kit. $18 HKD red lasers. Others not shown below: File set & cutters. --- The cheap red laser: The batt box has clear openings and you can fit the laser inside completely to keep an accurate Anpeq look - but in my case I want to be able to adjust it from the outside so I will be taking the lens holse out. The back of the battbox is removable (screwed) and has a notch for wires to come out of. Neat. As you can see the laser fits in fine. --- Pull out the top lens covers Dremel the hole bigger but not too big. You will have to try fitting the laser in and out to make sure it's a snug fit and not loose. Insert laser ;D Now for the lower lens. It has a tad small hole so you will need to widen it first. I used cutters to just cut away before taking out the dremel. Dremel, Try fitting. Dremel until tight fit. TADA~ dual red lasers. At this point turn the lasers around so that the alignment screws are vertically and horizontally aligned and then apply a bit of super glue so they don't shake around. Pull the pressure switch wires out and onto the notch. Close and screw on removable back. Tada~ Your dual laser batt box is complete~! Attach onto your gun and duct tape (or electrical tape) the two pressure switches as you want. In my example I put the top laser switch above the bottom laser switch so I know which switch turns on which laser. --- Enjoy~!

Well the batt box is like... $80? xD Excluding the tools you need... it's quite cheap ;D And the cut on the finger was because I was pulling off my 5.11 socks off with one hand with too much power and smashed my finger onto the edge of my desk hehehe... woops.

Also...can I still put a lipo inside. maybe if I just set up 1 laser?

It'll fit lipo with no problem if you use 1 laser. If you use two, you need to use the tri-stick thin Lipos. Dremel is the small hand drill
