Post Reply New Topic

my brotherinlaw gave me this flashlight , a small one that load batteries like this. ive never seen it before like this and wonderd if anyones seen AAA batteries loaded like this,

here is the flashlight.

nice!
can it work just using 1 AAA battery?
what's the size of the "package"? C or D?

Nope -- even though I've been dealing with a lot of electronics I've never seen this arrangement before. Looks like the batteries are in series, providing anywhere from 3.6 to 4.5 volts, depending on the type of batteries inserted...

that is such a cool torch (flashlight).

I aint see a setup like that before but i seen similar things throughout my time

Cool torch / flashlight!

I do have a torch which my mother bought for me recently (like yours but bigger and ridiculously heavy!) and the batteries load in the same way.

But before that I had not seen anything which loaded batteries like that.

LED flashlight?

Nice.

My son has had a couple of toys with similar configurations...

yes its an LED lights i think.

here are the bulbs and the power on

Cool.

As far as I know, these battery containers are only used in LED flashlights/LED devices. LED flashlights require three batteries in series to power them because of the higher voltage requirement. Most flashlights run on two batteries. Put the flat part of the battery against the springs just like installing any other batteries. The battery containers break easily if you drop them too. I tested an 28 LED light on three cheap AAA batteries and it ran for around 10 hours on a bright/normal light and had a dim light until around 30-40 hours.

I have two like that and am amazed how long the rum on AAA batteries. I lost one in my truck, I am a very messy person, and found it the next day still on
