I decided to test the idea of using multiple power sources to lengthen the life of a electronic nerf gun. It sprouted from an idea to use extra battery trays that were present in integrated blasters. I modded a stryfe with a slide switch to test this out and it worked pretty well. I also tested the idea of putting a barrel connector in the handle so that I could connect it to an external power source. This would be very helpful in hvz to prolong the life of electronic blasters.

I don't have a dremel yet so it is a bit sloppy.

So did you just add an extra power source somewhere in the blaster wired in parallel? It would be a lot easier to see what you did if you posted some internal pictures.

Sorry my computer is being really slow. I don't have the gun with me so I can't post internal pictures. The two power sources are separate and the switch allows you to switch between them. I hope this answers your question
