Battery question

Post by gamecube6 »

Hi,

If you wire a battery, say a 7.2V, with a battery with considerably lower mAh, say alkilines in series, what happens to the mAh?

Thanks,

It will stay the same, but the voltage will go up.

Parallel = mA go up, voltage stay same.
Things I need to purchase for my NES Laptop:
1X PSone screen
6X 1.2v 3500mAh sub-C's
1X 1/8'' to RCA stereo Adapater
1X Radioshack repair kit

..yeaaaaah...

I know doing this is not very recomendable, a lot of people warned me about this.
anyway when I made this to my latop, it works better with a few extra mah.

after that ,I tryed to get same mah batteries, but I´m low money ,and it works perfect with the cuarent batteries,
so I will save my low money and will spend it on another small purposes for my other projects.

so like Sharp Sapphire said, if you connect them at parallel, you will have a few extra mAh.
