5 AAA batterys = 4 AA batterys?

[Tri-edge]

I took apart my cell boost psp battery charger and found 5 dead AAA batterys and I'm wondering if I put just 4 AA batterys will it still work? And if I put just two?

[socomhacker239]

well both aaa an aa are the same power out put there both 1.5v

[gr8npwrfl]

Nope you would have less voltage.

You have to install 5

?? if they both have the same voltage wuts the point of having 2 of em lol
btw but im jw, doesnt it seem like the ads always have to do with the post? cuz this post is about batterys and thers a add for batterys.. cowincident? (hmm, i cant spell haha)

You will see they are strung back to front.

That is series.

first battery is from ground to + that is 1.5 volts
the next battery ground is hooked to the + of the first that makes from ground of the first to + of the second 3 volts
the third ground hooked to the + of the second make from ground of 1 to the + of three - 4.5 volts
the fourth ground hooked to the + of the third make from ground of the 1 to the + of 4 - 6 volts

If you stop there it will = 6 volts but if you add one more then you will have 7.5 volts

less voltage won't work.

so you need 5 batteries to get 7.5 volts

you will need the same amount as they are the same voltage if you add 5 AA you will get more charge time out of it.

no one has explained y they teh same voltage?
it makes no sence

[PspKicks316]

look on the battery itself. It tells you how many volts it is...they are both 1.5v because they are MADE that way...

[Ch4rL13]

.they are both 1.5v because they are MADE that way...

well ok then if they MADE that way, why are they made lol
i mean like why is there 2 sises made? well i guess for different things eh

but why dont u just replace the batterys dslite lol

[mootoo]

If U use accus U need 4 pcs 1accu=1.2V*5=5V and thats enough

[GhoSt]

well ok then if they MADE that way, why are they made lol
i mean like why is there 2 sises made? well i guess for different things eh

but why dont u just replace the batterys dslite lol

its because the generaly AA has more milliamp hours so it can sustain that 1.5v for longer than a AAA batt

[Timmy]

they have different sizes for different amperages and sized devices

AA's have higher amperage, not a lot more, but they have more....

but that doesn't change that they have the same voltage

i mean they have 12v batteries smaller then a babies little finger but they also use 12v batteries in some cars lol

[Tri-edge]

so I guess I have to have 5 AA batteries then. Thanks guys
