A 6×AA battery holder with a 5.5mm/2.1mm DC barrel plug, ready to power Arduino boards and other electronics with a standard DC jack. Use alkaline AAs for approximately 9V at 3000–4000mAh, or rechargeable NiMH cells for 7.2V at ~2000mAh.

The 9V alkaline output is ideal for boards with a 5V voltage regulator that require 7V+ input. Lasts about 10 times longer than a single 9V battery.

Key Features

  • DC Barrel Plug – 5.5mm/2.1mm centre-positive plug, fits Arduino and most dev boards
  • 6×AA Series Configuration – ~9V (alkaline) or ~7.2V (NiMH)
  • High Capacity – 3000–4000mAh with alkaline cells

Specifications

  • Battery Type – 6× AA (not included)
  • Output Voltage – ~9V (alkaline) or ~7.2V (NiMH)
  • Connector – 5.5mm/2.1mm DC barrel plug (centre positive)

Also Available

Ideal For

  • Portable Arduino and electronics projects
  • Battery-powered prototypes with DC jack input
  • Extended-runtime portable power

Package Contents

  • 1× 6×AA battery holder with DC barrel plug (batteries not included)

Jargon buster

Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.

DC
DC means direct current, where electricity flows in one constant direction, as supplied by batteries, USB ports and many plug-pack power supplies. When a product specifies DC, it runs from a DC supply rather than mains AC, so you need to provide the correct voltage and polarity.
