We have measured binary encounter electron production in collisions of 30 MeV O{sup q+} projectiles (q=4-8) and O{sub 2} targets. Measured double differential BEe cross-sections are found to increase with decreasing charge-state q, in agreement with similar previously reported zero-degree investigations for H{sub 2} and He targets. However, measurements for the same system but at 25{degrees} shows the opposite trend, that BEe cross sections decrease slightly with decreasing charge state.
