The Burst Avocado AEG Burst Regulator is an electronic device that attaches between your airsoft electronic gun (AEG) and your airsoft battery. Because it's an electronic unit, it will not work with your airsoft gas blowback (GBB) guns. There are several reason why you would want a burst unit in your airsoft gun:
Reason #1: The primary reason for airsoft programmable MOSFET burst control unit is to provide realism to your airsoft gun. The realism is driven by many real firearms that can fire in burst mode. For example, the M16 fires three-rounds burst. By using a programmable MOSFET burst control unit, your airsoft electronic gun can fire in burst mode as well.
Reason #2: The basic AEG is quite simple. Your trigger closes the contact circuitry from the battery to the motor, causing the electric motor to turn the gears to fire the gun. This simple circuit contact does not provide consistent voltage and current draw, which translates to inconsistent firing and potential burning of the electrical wiring. The MOSFET portion of the burst unit solves that problem by providing consistent voltage and current to the motor.
Reason #3: The burst unit detects battery condition to provide battery cut-off, which prevents over-discharge of sensitive batteries. This feature primarily targets LiPo batteries, where over-discharge can create a fire hazard. This cut-off is also useful for all battery types to prevent battery damage in a over-discharge condition.
Now that we have a good understanding of the purpose of a burst control unit, let's take a look at the Burst Avocado programmable MOSFET unit. The programmable burst unit, shown in the photo below, is a small circuit board encased in a hard transparent plastic. The plastic case is clear with no labeling whatsoever, allowing you to see the circuit board quite clearly.. There are two mini Tamiya connectors. The female connector connects to the airsoft gun, while the male connector connects to the airsoft battery. The Burst Avocado is also available with dean connectors, but we got the mini-Tamiya connector version.

Cross-Reference
It Burst Avocado looks extremely similar to the Swiss Arms Programmable MOSFET Burst Unit that we have reviewed on this web site before: "Swiss Arms Programmable MOSFET Burst Unit Review". Unlike the Swiss Arms burst unit, the Burst Avocado has no physical battery type programming button.
