conlai Posted February 8, 2006 Report Posted February 8, 2006 Hi,I've trying to understand the relationship btw voltage and battery with no luck. As we know, there is voltage between + and - terminals of a battery. Thus an electric field is built up. Quote
audioguru Posted February 8, 2006 Report Posted February 8, 2006 Your battery doesn't have a load so current doesn't flow. Electricity needs two wires to close the loop for current to flow.I don't like Duracell so I chose Energizer, but connected them in series like your circuit, then added a 1k resistor as a load for 3mA of current to flow: Quote
audioguru Posted February 8, 2006 Report Posted February 8, 2006 What do you think about my little experiment audioguru?It is too confusing and expensive to short the battery for current to flow. I showed how connecting a load to the battery will cause a predictable amount of current to flow. ;D Quote
audioguru Posted February 9, 2006 Report Posted February 9, 2006 Hi Zeppelin,Ground has nothing to do with his two battery cells and only causes confusion.They can be joined by anything conductive. Quote
Staigen Posted February 9, 2006 Report Posted February 9, 2006 Why dont you use Tudor batterys instead, then everything would have been much simpler?You woulden't need any ground connection, and could refer to any of the three terminals!Tudor, the battery with nine lifes![move] ;D ;D ;D Quote
Staigen Posted February 10, 2006 Report Posted February 10, 2006 Hiwhat is a tudor battery staigen?Tudor is a battery brand, in Sweden! ;D//Staigen Quote
audioguru Posted February 10, 2006 Report Posted February 10, 2006 What is the 3rd terminal connected to in a Tudor battery? Quote
Staigen Posted February 10, 2006 Report Posted February 10, 2006 Hehe, your the guru, arent you?! ;D ;D ;D//Staigen Quote
audioguru Posted February 10, 2006 Report Posted February 10, 2006 The 3rd terminal is spare and is used if one of the real terminals wears out? Quote
Staigen Posted February 10, 2006 Report Posted February 10, 2006 A nice try, but i belive you can better than that!//Staigen Quote
audioguru Posted February 10, 2006 Report Posted February 10, 2006 When I was a kid in about 1956, my uncle gave me my very 1st portable radio that used a center-tapped battery with 3 terminals. That battery is still sold in Sweden??? Quote
Staigen Posted February 10, 2006 Report Posted February 10, 2006 I dont know, do you still have the radio?I have never seen a centertapped battery!Staigen Quote
