OK so some battery theory needed. Lets just say I want to operate a small loco at 7-8v. Light load very small loco, nothing but the motor and a LED light. This will be operated by an R/C unit and battery power.
Now producing 7.4v with rechargeable Lithium Ion batteries seems easy enough. At 3.7v each it would take two in series to produce 7.4v correct? This would be the right voltage. To achieve this I could use two aaa size lithium ion batteries. That just doesn’t seem like enough. Am I missing something like amps. Does amp hours or miliamp hours increase with size of battery?
Someone explain batteries to me.
