Description
This AA Active Dummy Cell Battery is used to replace
a real AA battery in flameless LED candles and other electronic devices that
use one or more AA batteries. It has an 8" long thin flat flexible cable
(FFC cable) with a 5.5mm x 2.1mm barrel socket at the end and works with
the barrel plugs on all of our Battery Eliminator Kits and Accessories (Power
Splitter Cables, Power Extension Cables, AC to DC Wall Power Adapters, etc.). Works by itself or in conjunction with our AA
Passive Dummy Cell Batteries and the appropriate AC to DC Wall Power Adapter to
eliminate expensive batteries that are constantly having to be replaced. Please
read the detailed discussion and diagram for the components that make up a
complete Battery Eliminator solution.
Stop changing out dead batteries and start saving money with our battery
eliminator kits & accessories.
This AA Active Dummy Cell Battery is one component of an overall Battery
Eliminator solution which consists of a AA Active Dummy Cell Battery (this
component), our AA Passive Dummy Cell Batteries (part number AA-PASSIVE-DUMMY -
quantity depends on the number of regular batteries required by the electronic
device), and an AC to DC Wall Power Adapter (DC output voltage depends on the number
of batteries used by the electronic device). The tip/inner
conductor of the barrel socket goes to the (+) terminal of the AA Active
Dummy Cell Battery, and the ring/outer conductor of the barrel socket goes to
the (-) terminal of the AA Active Dummy Cell Battery. This internal connection is needed to
complete the circuit necessary in the electronic device when used in
conjunction with one or more AA Passive Dummy Cell Batteries.
This AA Active Dummy Cell Battery is the same
size as a real AA battery, so it fits in one of the battery spaces in the
battery compartment. It doesn't matter which space it goes into as long as the
correct polarity is still observed as with regular batteries. The FFC cable can
easily be run around the side of most battery compartment covers, so the
original battery cover can still be used. In some cases, it might be necessary
to take a small file and file out a shallow groove which gives the flat cable a
little bit more room to run around the side of the battery cover.
As an example, suppose you want to eliminate 2 x AA batteries. You will need 1
x AA Active Dummy Cell Battery (this component), 1 x AA Passive Dummy Cell
Battery and an AC to DC Wall Power Adapter that supplies the appropriate power
for electronic devices that use 2 x AA batteries. Since each regular AA battery
supplies 1.5VDC, two AA batteries will supply 3VDC, so you would need an AC to
DC Wall Power Adapter that supplies an output voltage around 3VDC (3.3VDC is
also acceptable).
As another example, suppose you want to
eliminate 3 x AA batteries. You will need 1 x AA Active Dummy Cell Battery
(this component), 2 x AA Passive Dummy Cell Batteries and an AC to DC Wall Power
Adapter that supplies the appropriate power for electronic devices that use 3 x
AA batteries. Since each regular AA battery supplies 1.5VDC, three AA batteries
will supply 4.5VDC, so you would need an AC to DC Wall Adapter that supplies an
output voltage around 4.5VDC (5VDC is also acceptable).
NOTE(S): This is not a real battery and will not power an electronic device on
its own. It needs to be used in conjunction with the other necessary components
that make up a complete Battery Eliminator solution as discussed above and
depicted in the included diagram.
