Frequently Asked Questions
What output voltage does this holder provide?
Two standard 1.5V alkaline AAA batteries in series provide 3.0V DC nominal. Using 1.2V NiMH rechargeable cells provides 2.4V DC nominal.
Does the slide switch isolate the positive lead?
Yes, the slide switch breaks the positive wire circuit directly at the housing so power can be cut without disconnecting the plug.
What type of connector is installed on the wire leads?
The leads terminate in a polarized 2-pin female socket connector featuring an exterior locking tab to secure the connection against vibration.
A compact switched battery case is the quickest way to untether a bench circuit and make it portable. Drop in two fresh cells, flip the switch, and take your build wherever it needs to run.
