8 x AA Cell Box, With Cover with DC

The 8 x AA Cell Box, With Cover with DC, is an enclosed battery holder for eight AA cells wired in series, giving about 12 V from alkaline batteries. The cover keeps the cells secure, and a DC connector lets you plug the pack into devices and boards that take a DC power input. It is a handy portable 12 V source for motors, LED strips and Arduino projects away from the mains.

8 x AA Cell Box Specifications

• Capacity: 8 × AA cells
• Wiring: cells in series
• Output voltage: about 12 V with alkaline cells (8 × 1.5 V), about 9.6 V with NiMH rechargeables (8 × 1.2 V)
• Cover: yes, enclosed box
• Output connection: DC power connector

8 x AA Cell Box Applications

• Portable power for 12 V gear motors such as the 37GB-528 and 25GA-370
• Running 12 V LED strips away from the mains
• Powering an Arduino Uno through its barrel jack (7–12 V recommended)
• Portable amplifiers, test rigs and robot projects

What's in the Box

• 1 × 8 x AA cell box with cover and DC connector

Tip: Check the polarity of the DC connector with a multimeter before first use; Arduino boards expect centre positive. Fresh alkaline cells can read slightly above 12 V, which the Arduino barrel jack handles without trouble.
