![]() It is also important to note that this arrangement (i.e., batteries in parallel) can potentially damage the batteries if they discharge into each other however, this problem can be mitigated in part by using batteries that are all at the same charge level (e.g., fully charged) or using diodes and small resistors in series with the batteries. ![]() If you want a more permanent solution, check out these Instructables: AA to D Cell Adapter 1, AA to D Cell Adapter 2, and Easy Conversion: AA to C or Any Other Cell. This Instructable creates a simple, it-will-do solution. Read on for the detailed construction tips! (It's really easy.) This also gave the DIY battery more energy (i.e., longer run time) and likely reduced the strain on each individual AA by drawing current from all four AA's at once. However, it was easier to combine 4 AA's into one battery to simulate the size of a D battery and effectively replace it. Since alkaline batteries, regardless of their size (e.e.g, AAA, AA, C, D), all have the same voltage (1.5 V), I realized that I needed to make a AA (or a couple of AA's), of which I had many, fit in the pump in place of the failed D battery.Įlectrically, one AA could do this job since it runs at the same voltage as a D battery. ![]() But, lo and behold, one of the D batteries inside the electric pump had leaked, spewing battery acid everywhere inside the pump, and (of course) we had no more D batteries! What to do, what to do. With my parents over for the weekend, and the hour of midnight rapidly approaching, we needed to blow up the ol' air mattress and get to bed. These standard size dry cell batteries are commonly known as Flashlight Batteries due to their exceptional performance and long-lasting power, making them ideal for use in large torches. If you ever needed to fit a square peg into a round hole on short notice, then this Instructable is for you! D Batteries D Batteries D Batteries are a versatile and reliable power source for a wide range of high drain power applications.
