Time for some electrickery....

A 6 Volt battery containing 32 separate AA batteries.

One AA Battery delivers 1.5 Volts.

4 AA Batteries connected in series delivers 4 X 1.5 = 6 Volts @ y Amps.

8 Banks of 4 AA (series connected Batteries), connected in parallel = 6 Volts @ 8 X y Amps.

32 separate Batteries required... [smiley=thumbsup.gif]...!

An electrifying calculation... ::)...!

F...time for a lie-down now... 8-)...!
Win 8.1 64-bit. DX11. Advent Tower. Intel i7-3770 3.9 GHz 8-core. 8 GB System RAM. AMD Radeon HD 7700 1GB RAM. DVD ROM. 2 Terra Byte SATA Hard Drive. Philips 17" LCD Monitor. Saitek Cyborg X Fly-5 Joystick. ...and a Briggs and Stratton Petrol Lawn Mower.

Hello Ash!...;)...!

I spent a shocking amount of time messing about with electric trickery during the whole of my working life (and beyond)... ::)...!

Give me a source of electricity, a couple of wires, and a lamp, and I light up with excitement!.. [smiley=2vrolijk_08.gif]...!

(It's the Maths/Calculations which I have always had problems with!.... :'(...)
