The principle behind those glowing orbs throughout your house is one of the most simplistic of science and circuitry. If you provide a source of energy to an able filament it will glow. Whether your source is the AC current running through your home or DC current provided by a battery, it will still yield the same result.
with great difficulty. You'll need either a dc/dc converter or an inverter to step up the voltage, or a battery with a enough cells to reach a matching voltage.
To attach a bulb to a battery you have to use a lamp holder. Connect the lamp holder to the battery and then screw the bulb into the lamp holder.
Yes, for about .1 second, then it will blow the lamp. A 9v battery will however light three 3.5v lamps.
12 volts is enough for a 12-volt 100-watt light bulb. It would not be enough for a 120-volt or 240-volt bulb.
If you want your bulbs to last longer then use 130 volt bulb on a 120 volt system. The light emitted by a 130 volt bulb, when comparing it to a 120 volt bulb, will be a bit dimmer.
A 13.5 volt bulb will burn less brightly but last longer.
They can look the same, so I would take the number from it and have it looked up at a parts store using there BUYERS GUIDE.
Yes it it is a 12 volt DC light bulb. It will not operate a household 120 volt light bulb.
If it is a 1.5 volt bulb you can connect it through a series circuit directly to your battery. If the bulb is not made to run on 1.5 volts and needs another voltage, it may not light up!
Yes, for about .1 second, then it will blow the lamp. A 9v battery will however light three 3.5v lamps.
If the type of light bulb you are using was made to run on 1.5 volts, a 1.5 volt battery should be able to light up one or several of those types if they are each wired in parallel directly across the 1.5 volt battery.If the type of light bulb you are using was made to run on 0.75 volts, a 1.5 volt battery will light up two or more of those types if they are wired in pairs in series across the battery.If the type of light bulb you are using was made to run on, say, 3.0 volts, a 1.5 volt battery will not light it up very much - it may just glow dimly.If the type of light bulb you are using was made to run on any voltage higher than, let's say 5 volts - for instance a standard 120 volt household bulb - then your 1.5 volt battery will not be able to light one of those up at all.Another answerYou can wire any number of 1.5v bulbs in parallel, but for each one you add you will draw more current. Draw too much current and the battery will get hot and may explode, depending on what it is made of.How long the battery will be able to keep the light bulbs lit will depend on the size of the battery, meaning how much charge it can hold. (Its capacity in amp.hours.)
hot bulb and batter
12 volts is enough for a 12-volt 100-watt light bulb. It would not be enough for a 120-volt or 240-volt bulb.
The 1964 VW Beetle came from the factory with a 6 volt electrical system. Unless it has been upgraded to a 12 volt system you would need a 6 volt battery. I would recommend you check the voltage of the current battery with a volt meter. If there is no battery in the vehicle, just remove a light bulb and check the voltage written on the bulb.
If the bulb is a 40 watt, 120v bulb, you would need 20 6 volt batteries wired in series, or 80 (!) 1.5 volt batteries. 1.5 volt batteries are AAA, AA, C, D, etc. Since this solution is rather extravagant, try finding a light bulb made for an RV. These typically run off of 12 volts, and you can get a single 12 volt battery, or 2 6 volt batteries, to run this bulb.
Picture hanging wire 1 strand connected to a 6 volt battery!
If you want your bulbs to last longer then use 130 volt bulb on a 120 volt system. The light emitted by a 130 volt bulb, when comparing it to a 120 volt bulb, will be a bit dimmer.
The battery life (assuming it is a primary cell) is determined by the Ampere-hour drawn from it. You cannot connect a 3.5V bulb directly to a 9V battery. The bulb will fuse.
i will tell you how if you tell me what this project is called,it uses light bulb, copper wires,holder,6 volt battery.
