Description<\/strong><\/p>\n

This battery holder connects 3 AAA batteries together in series for powering all kinds of projects. We spec’d these out because the box is slim, and 3 AAA’s add up to about 3.3-4.5V, a very similar range to Lithium Ion\/polymer (Li-Ion) batteries and have an on-off switch. That makes them ideal for use with 3.3V projects that have a 2-pin JST connector meant for one of our Li-Ion\/Poly batteries. (Of course, you can’t recharge them like Li-Ion\/Polys, so don’t try to plug this into one of our Li-Ion\/Poly charger boards!)<\/p>\n

Fits any standard AAA battery. When using rechargeable NiMH the output voltage will range from about 3.7V with charged batteries to 2.7V at the end of life with a nominal voltage of 3.6V. When using alkalines, the output will range from 4.6V with new batteries to 3.3V at the end of life with a nominal voltage of about 4.5V<\/p>\n

The polarity matches that of our 2-pin JST cable and Li-Ion\/Poly batteries. Uses a genuine JST connector so it wont ‘catch and tear’ in JST connectors.<\/p>\n
