NEW & IMPROVED
NEXT-GENERATION SINGLE-COMPONENT DESIGN! Do you have an outdoor
electronic device that you love but runs on 2 x D batteries, and you’re tired
of dealing with dead batteries? Well, we
have a solution! We are now offering an alternative
way to power your outdoor electronic devices that use 2 x D batteries! This Next-Generation
2 x D Outdoor Battery Eliminator Kit is used to replace real D batteries in outdoor
electronic devices that use 2 x D batteries. Perfect for use in outdoor electronic
devices that are heavily used or left on for extended periods of time. This Next
Generation 2 x D Outdoor Battery Eliminator Kit includes 1 x Next-Generation D Outdoor
Active Dummy Cell Battery and 1 x Next-Generation D Passive Dummy Cell Battery. The Thin Flat Flexible Cable (FFC cable)
coming out of the Next Generation D Outdoor Active Dummy Cell Battery can be
run around the side of most battery compartment covers that have waterproof
gaskets, so the original level of waterproofness can still be maintained! Also, the connector at the end of the FFC
cable is a waterproof 5.5mm x 2.1mm male barrel plug with M12-1.75 screw
threads. This connector will mate with
our outdoor power extension cables and outdoor power splitter cables keeping
your connections protected! This connector will also mate with regular
indoor 5.5mm x 2.1mm male barrel plugs, but the connection won’t be waterproof,
so outdoor electrical tape or adhesive-lined heat-shrink tubing can be used to
protect this connection. So, stop braving
the elements to change out dead batteries and start saving money! Stop worrying about whether your outdoor electronic
device is turned off or in the timer mode!
Outdoor Battery Eliminator Kits are here to save you the hassle, the
time, and the money associated with constantly changing out dead batteries in
your favorite battery powered outdoor electronic devices!
This new and improved Next-Generation 2 x D
Battery Eliminator Kit has single-component D Active and D Passive Dummy Cell
Batteries that more closely resemble actual D batteries in construction and
terminal conductive surfaces. This new
single-component design eliminates the need for 2-component Dummy Cell
Batteries constructed of AA Dummy Cell Batteries inserted into AA to D
converter shells which were used in the original first-generation Outdoor 2 x D
Battery Eliminator Kits. This new
single-component design eliminates the AA Dummy Cell Batteries falling out of
the AA to D converter shells, and the small and unreliable contact surface
areas! No more worrying about the
positive terminals of the AA Dummy Cell Batteries making good contact with the
internal positive terminals of the AA to D converter shells. No more wondering
if the positive and negative terminals are making good contact with the
terminals in the battery compartment! These
new features mean less hassle, more reliable terminal connections, and an
overall superior solution!
The Next-Generation D Dummy Cell Batteries included in this kit are the same
size as regular D batteries, so they easily fit into the outdoor electronic
device's battery compartment spaces. It doesn't matter which space they go into
as long as you observe the correct polarities just as you would when inserting
real batteries. The thin flat flexible cable (FFC cable) coming out of the Next-Generation
D Outdoor Active Dummy Cell Battery can easily be run around the side of most
battery compartment covers that have waterproof gaskets, so the original
battery compartment cover and gasket can still be used while maintaining a
waterproof seal!
Don't forget to check out our outdoor battery eliminator
components and accessories such as our Rechargeable Solar Panels, Outdoor AC to
DC Power Adapters, Outdoor Power Extension Cables, Outdoor Power Splitter
Cables, Outdoor Active Dummy Cell Batteries, Passive Dummy Cell Batteries, Cable
Ground Stakes, Adhesive Lined Heat-Shrink Tubing, etc.
NOTES:
·
The Next-Generation D Outdoor Active Dummy
Cell Battery and Next-Generation D Passive Dummy Cell Battery are not real
batteries and will not power an electronic device on its own. They need to be
used in conjunction with an appropriate AC to DC power adapter or solar panel
as discussed above and depicted in the diagrams.
·
This kit does not contain a power source, so
that will need to be purchased separately.
We offer 3.3VDC output voltage rechargeable solar panels that can be
used as the power source and has the appropriate waterproof connector that will
mate with the waterproof connector on the Next-Generation D Outdoor Active
Dummy Cell Battery. We also offer indoor
and outdoor AC to DC power adapters. Our
indoor AC to DC wall power adapters can be used as the power source provided the
adapter isn’t exposed to the outdoor elements such as water, rain, dirt,
etc. Also, the connection between the
indoor AC to DC wall power adapter’s 5.1mm x 2.1mm male barrel plug and the Next-Generation
D Outdoor Active Dummy Cell Battery’s female barrel socket will need to be made
waterproof by using outdoor electrical tape or adhesive-lined heat-shrink
tubing.
·
Please make sure the mating connector used
with the Next-Generation Outdoor D Active Dummy Cell Battery has M12-1.75 screw
threads. M12 specifies the diameter of
the threads as 12mm (refer to illustrations), and 1.75 specifies the pitch of
the screw threads as 1.75mm and is the distance between threads in mm (refer to
illustrations). If the mating connector does not have the same thread diameter
and the same thread pitch, then the screw nut on the mating connector will not
work, and the rubber O-ring on the mating connector will not be properly
compressed which is necessary to create a weatherproof seal. The connector on
this cable will mate with regular (non-weatherproof) 5.5mm x 2.1mm DC barrel
connectors (male plugs), but the connection will not be weatherproof (water and
dirt).
·
Since each regular D battery supplies 1.5VDC,
2 x D batteries will supply 3VDC. Power sources that supply 3VDC or 3.3VDC are
adequate for powering electronic devices that use 2 x D batteries. The output current rating of the power source
should be selected such that it is appropriate for the outdoor electronic
device being powered. Most devices that
use 2D batteries can be powered using a power source capable of supplying an output
current of 1-Amp, but some devices may require 2-Amps or as much as 3-Amps.
WARNING(S): Do not attempt to charge the Next-Generation D Dummy Cell
Batteries with a battery charger. Doing so may damage the battery charger.
