So what’s inside “AA” batteries?

There are two ways to connect batteries together, in series and in parallel, each affecting the batteries' output in respect to voltages and amperes. For this explination, I will only discuss the voltage aspect. When connecting batteries in series, wires are linked from the positive side of one battery to the negative side of another and so on. If the batteries are connected this way, then the voltages of each battery are added together and the sum would be the total output in volts. So, if two 1.5V batteries are connected in series, then the total output would be 3V. When connecting batteries in parallel, on the other hand, the positive side of one battery is linked to the positive side of another battery and they negative sides are connected in the same manner, negative to negative. However, each battery's voltage is not added to the voltage of the others to reach a sum, the output of these connected batteries would be only the voltage of one battery. So, if two 1.5V batteries are connected in parallel, then the total output would only be 1.5V. To reach the desired voltage, in this case, one would connect the batteries in a combination of the two connection methods. To get 6V from 32 1.5V batteries, one would connect 4 seperate groups of 8 1.5V batteries in parallel, giving each group 1.5V. Then one would subsequently connect the 4 groups together serially (1.5V + 1.5V + 1.5V + 1.5V) to get 6V. TheKatMan,

Question? Think about it! One "AA" battery is 1.5V, so how does 32 of them equal 6V? If there was 32 "AA" batteries in a 6v Lantern Battery, then they have to be 0.1875V each. :?: I also got 4 “D” cells. Question? Think about it!

One of your coins probably completed the circuit between the two poles of the battery, thus generating the heat. You say it heaated up your change.
