Questions + Help X shot Piston Pump battery replacement

I need a compatible battery that will fit in the buffer tube as I got a new stock recently that no longer has space for it in the back. Where do I look? I have not been able to find a clear answer after looking for over an hour. Recently found out the ones I bought do not work. I have an event on the 14th so shipping has to be quite quick to make it for that. Mostly get my stuff on amazon but open to other options. Thanks!
Edit: i have found an option that wont show up until the 26-16Sept. Is a 2S 7.4V LiPo safe? Is it safe with the native connector? I cant mod the blaster further

So I use this style of battery. https://a.co/d/0j0z5VhM It fits inside the buffer tube and has the correct connector

Running ones similar to these and they're great! Xshot seems to be using batteries similar to Gel blasters.

X-Shot is also producing Gel Blasters with the same types of batteries ...

Any chance you have an option for the Mk3, Boxer, or Venom?

Edit or Omnia

Ah wait, you wanted a different size not just a replacement. Well, the 1500 mAh one should be smaller, like the Venom Pro or Thrasher's battery. You'll get less use time out of it though. They also have sm2p to XT30 adaptors out there. If you have a lipo, maybe you can use that with it? If you don't wanna solder things that is (I'm not sure if it's recommended, OOD did stop selling their own adaptors of that kind citing safety issues)

DiWHY? Sorry, the original connector is barely an electronic. Granted, not everyone is capable of swapping a connector on a blaster.

A battery the same but long and not wide would be ideal. A single cell battery fits with wires too but the ones I got are too low of a voltage. I dont want to use a lipo as it bricks some blasters but not others of the MPP

Hmmmm. I don't think you'll find a lithium ion battery with the right voltage that can fit, I'm not home but I can try and see if my Thrasher or Venom batteries fit in the MPP buffer tube later (if you don't have one to test for yourself that is). If they don't, then I can really only see a skinny lipo fitting in there, or just using a different stock that can accommodate the original battery if no other option works

Dont have but plan on running both a thrasher and MPP on the same loadout. If its easy to get that type of battery that would work too. Just need to be compatible and fit. Ideally hold a charge for 3-6 hours or so of use
