I am creating a lighting system for a replica of The Ghostbusters Proton Pack. I have two different battery operated holiday light sets to reproduce the effect the movie props had. Both use 3 AA batteries can I wire a single battery pack and a toggle switch into both? I assume I would then need 6 AA batteries? Thanks in Advance!
Batteries in series add their voltage. Batteries in parallel add their current capability. By hooking both lighting systems to one battery pack you are going to drain the batteries faster. The concept of 6 AA batteries I would use 3 D size batteries if I was working with lighting so the battery would last longer and if I used rechargeable batteries, I wouldn't have to recharge them as often. Just some friendly advice - Garth
