Just a thought ! Could i make a device from say a 6 or 12 volt battery and transform it down ?

Thanks for that Andy
Ah is a unit of charge, normally used with reference to batteries, not current.
It sounds like you need a 25Ah 4V lead acid battery. It will be very heavy though, 3.4kg (7 1/2lb) according to the data sheets I could find for batteries of this size. 4V is not a common voltage though. You may need to make if from two 2V cells. -
Hi people my name is Andy and my knowledge of electronics is extremely limited
i don't even know if this is the right place to ask the question
I collect miners lamps and have several from the 1950's/1960's that need an electronic ignition .The ignition was applied in the lamp room at the collieries
what i need to know is if it is possible to make a device that is 4.4 volts and 25ah output ?
this device works by applying two wires to the lamp one to an isolated ring and the other to the lamp the current then passes through a platinum wire above the wick which glows and lights the flame
any help would be appreciated
thanks in advance
