What batteries work good with digital cameras?
Q. I'm thinking of getting a Nikon Coolpix S230 for my birthday and was wondering what batteries work well with cameras. My family recently got a camera and the batteries would always die after one shot. So can you help me find batteries for my camera? I prefer rechargeable ones, so can you also tell me where to get a battery charger? The cheaper the better. :) Thanks

A. Fully charged batteries work best. As for your old camera, you probably used ordinary disposable batteries for it. Digital cameras are power hungry devices. The absolute minimum is alkaline. For disposables, Energizer Lithium is the best. If you prefer rechargeable AAs, get the highest mAh rating you can afford for longer lasting power. Some cameras have their own unique battery size. You don't have much choice with these so it would be advisable to get a back-up battery just in case.

What kind of batteries are best for a model rocket launch controller?
Q. I'm planning on building a new model rocket launch controller, and I need help deciding what kind of batteries to use. The controller will have 150ft of 16 gauge wire going to the rocket and about three different buttons/ switches on the controller itself. What kind of batteries and voltage would I need to guarantee a proper launch every time? I'd rather not use a car battery and I've heard that 12v of AA batteries would not get the job done. Thanks for any help.
Asked by Penguin_Overlord - Thu Jul 30 21:03:37 2009 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments
A. May I suggest that stranded (not solid) 18 AWG is better. Also you need a safety lock-out key and only one firing switch/button, not 3. Keep it simple. Keep it safe. 150 ft. of wire? You must be launching a big rocket. Better check to see that you are within Tripoli and NAR guidelines. 6 volts equals 4 AA batteries Why not use rechargeables? Better yet... why not invest in a small 12 volt rechargeable lantern battery? That will last 50 -100 launches without recharging. It will ensure enough power gets to your launch pad.

Can massive feedback cause the batteries in a wireless microphone to stop working?
Q. Recently I was doing a show for my school and massive feedback occurred. Next thing you know the mic stopped working because the batteries didn't work. The batteries were brand new at the beginning of the show. The broken batteries were replaced, and the mic worked again. All other mics worked fine with the new batteries till the end of the show. My question is, could the feedback have anything to do with the mic not working/batteries being dead.
Asked by Poochieattack - Sun May 10 12:54:24 2009 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments
A. Yes, most certainly. In normal use, with no sound into the microphone, the current drawn from the battery is quite low. With sound into the microphone the current increases. I both cases the internal circuit is simply an amplifier driving a very low powered transmitter. When acoustic feedback occurs, the microphone is part of an oscillatory loop and the current taken from the battery increases dramatically.

What are the best and cheapest batteries to use for a digital camera?
Q. I've just recently bought a digital camera. It's a SamSung Digimax S500. I've already gone through about 20 batteries in four days. (Both Energizer type and Duracell). What are some good batteries that last a long time in a digital camera? I love my camera and love taking pictures with it but get frustrated at the batteries always dying on me. Do you guys think I should invest in rechargeable batteries? Answers appreciated. Thanks!

A. If you went through that many batteries in four days you must be shooting thousands of shots a day. Or, there is something wrong with the camera, which is what I suspect. The best is not the cheapest. Buy the highest Mah you can find. I usually buy from an on-line source because they have the lowest prices. 10 minutes of time spent on the Internet will yield good results for you. If you want to lower your cost, buy rechargable batteries. Get at least two sets - one from the camera and a spare. Buy a quick charger and you can have a fresh set in less than an hour. Norm

What is inside rechargeable batteries that makes them different from regular batteries?
Q. Please do not give me obvious and vague responses such as "the difference is that chargeable batteries have something in them that makes them rechargeable." I would like to know exactly what the differences are. Because, I mean essentially, why do even still have regular batteries if we can just buy a pair that we can just recharge?
Asked by Answer-Me-This - Fri Feb 2 10:59:18 2007 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments
A. Rechargeable batteries behave like ordinary batteries when they are being discharged. In other words, an electrical circuit is created when one material oxidizes, or gives up electrons, while another material immersed in an electrolyte becomes reduced, or gains electrons. The key to a rechargeable battery, however, is that it can reverse this flow of electrons when it is plugged into an electrical outlet. The material that oxidizes during discharge gains electrons, while the other material gives up electrons. Why do we still have non chargeable batteries? I think because people are lazy and don't want to charge them all the time.

A. You are risking an explosion. Make sure that the starter is not the problem. By connecting three batteries together you have the potential to damage your car permanently. One good battery should work to jump your car. Remove the battery in the car and put a known good one in. If the car still will not turn over, you have a starter or other problem.

What happens to the batteries in hybrid cars when they reach their life-expectancy?
Q. To be considered for BA, you'll have to cite a reference, and limit your responses to facts. I've placed a call with my county's hazardous materials collection unit, which (according to one official I've spoken with,)handles the post-consumer life of these batteries, but I've not yet gotten an answer, and my web-searches have come up blank. All of the battery recycling programs I've learned of relate to household and smaller (ie: cell phone and computer) rechargables.

what is the differance between NIMH batteries and NICAD batteries?
Q. I need to get new battery for my Airsoft gun and I have found a website that makes batteries but I need to know what kind of cells I should get . I dont know the differance between these kinds of batteries so I need help .
Asked by courtsdrummertoy1982 - Mon May 19 12:13:27 2008 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments
A. In this case, it really depends how often you use your Airsoft gun. Choose NICAD if you use it constantly as it will last longer overtime. The only down with NICAD is that you need to wait until the battery is low to recharge the battery, and you have to fully charge the battery before using your gun. NIMH are better if you use your airsoft gun sporatically, It will last longer if you don't use your gun often and it is not affected by the "memory effect" like NICAD. So you can charge your NIMH battery whenever and stop charging it half way thru if you need. On both type: The battery will no hold a charge after so many charging / discharging cycle you go thru. NICAD are better cycle wise but you do need to use it often.

What would happen if i was to use batteries with different Mah ratings?
Q. I am planning on chaining three 3.7v batteries together to make 11.1v, two of the batteries will be 2000 Mah and one will be 800 Mah. How would this effect the battery life compared to using three 2000 Mah batteries? Thanks! Yep, i meant mAh. I understand they wouldn't last as long but, would i be limited by the weakest link in the chain? (every battery drops to 800 mAh, or the 800mAh battery will flatten before all the others)
Asked by simond2000 - Thu Aug 28 13:51:50 2008 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments
A. The 800 mAh battery will discharge faster than the others. When it's drained, the device it's in will probably no longer run due to the voltage being too low. Also, when it's voltage falls below the other batteries voltage it will have a reverse voltage present across it. This could damage the battery and cause it to leak and damage the device it's in and the other batteries. It's never a good idea to mix different battery capacities in one device or use different battery chemistry's in one device (NiCad, NiMH, alkaline, etc.).

A. With a totally separate charging system for the new Auxiliary batteries they do not have to be connected to the factory cranking batteries. Just run both the positive and negative from the batteries to the Aux generator and cables from the aux batteries to the inverter. But inverters require a chassis ground from the case of the inverter to ground to prevent shock hazards since you will not be using the trucks chassis as ground you will need to make sure you run a 10 gauge wire from the inverter case to the new Aux batteries.

Why do my rechargeable batteries not work in pairs but only when i mix rechargebles and normal batteries?
Q. This problem occurred recently. I cannot use 2 rechargeable batteries but only 1 rechargeable batteries and 1 normal alkaline battery. I checked both of my batteries and they only work in that way.

A. Rechargeable batteries provide .2 V less than regular batteries (say 1.3V vs 1.5V). So, with two batteries, that's about .4 V and if the batteries get old, maybe more, which explains why your device does not work. The extra battery provides the extra voltage you need. But new ones.

What happens when you charge non rechargeable batteries?
Q. I am interested in getting an HP 8881 camera dock. It is supposed to charge the camera's rechargeable batteries if you put it in the dock. Sounds great! But what happens if by mistake you have non-rechargeable batteries in the camera? Will you damage the camera? Does anyone know if this HP model has some sort of 'safety' on it if the camera doesn't have the right batteries in it? Edited to add: I looked on HP's website and there are NO warnings about putting non-rechargeable batteries in a camera and then putting it on the port. This makes me believe that it wouldn't damage the camera. The camera also shows a message: 'The batteries are non-rechargeable'. Question answered by a little research. Thanks all!

A. If you put the wrong batteries (non-rechargable batteries) into the camera, all that will happen is that the batteries will run down as you use the camera. When you put them in the dock, nothing will happen. There is no 'safety' on this, the camera will simply draw what energy is available and when that's exhausted, will shut down.

A. Energizer Lithium are the best, bar none - but they're also the best price (for the manufacturer). Perhaps you should buy a pack of four Eneloops (is that what they're called?) and a charger.

What are 3 reasons as to why replacing regular batteries with fruit batteries is not a good idea?
Q. What are 3 reasons as to why replacing the regular batteries we use today with fruit batteries (actual fruit being plugged in by wires/clips) is not a good idea? I know that fruit batteries save energy, but why is it so ineffective?
