Connecting is simple. The main issue is what kind of motor do you have? Batteries are DC. Therefore the motor must be DC or a universal motor, or a permanent magnet DC motor. The motor voltage and current requirements must match the battery's voltage and ampere-hour rating. A standard DC motor has 4 leads

A universal motor has 2 leads

A permanent magnet DC motor has 2 leads. The motors with 2 leads are easy: + and --

The 4 lead motor: 2 leads are "field" (F1 F2) 2 leads are armature (A1 A2)

one of each goes to + (F1 A1)

one of each goes to -- (F2 A2)

The motor must be very small in horsepower to work off a battery. There are other more complex DC motors with more leads than 4, but there are NOT going to run on a battery.

How do you wire two 12 volt marine batteries together to run a 24 volt trolling motor?

To get 24v from two 12v batteries you just link between ones positive and the others negative then connect your motor to the spare terminals, but your 12v charging system will not charge them (and any 12v equipment connected to them will burn out!) without removing the link.

What happens when you connect positive to negative in 6 volt battery?

If it's a car/motorcycle battery you will be welding! If it's a small electronics battery nothing. Volts are not really the issue here, but amps are. And yes some old cars did or do have 6 volt batteries if not converted...


How do you connect two deep cycle 12-volt batteries in parallel to an RV?

Assuming neither battery is used to start the engine, simply connect the positive (+) terminal of the first battery to the positive terminal of the second battery. Then connect the negative (-) terminal of the first battery to the negative terminal of the second battery. Connect the load circuit to the positive and negative terminals of one of the batteries as usual. You may want to charge the batteries separately before making the connection, since connecting a charged battery to a discharged battery will result in a very large current flowing from the charged battery to the discharged battery, possibly damaging the wiring or either battery.


How do you connect a bulb holder to a battery source?

To connect a bulb holder to a battery source, first, ensure the power is off for safety. Connect one terminal of the battery to one terminal of the bulb holder using insulated wires. Then, connect the other terminal of the bulb holder to the remaining terminal of the battery. Ensure all connections are secure to allow the electric current to flow and light the bulb.

How do you connect the battery in the M4 Carbine airsoft gun battery?

If you're replacing a motor: - Take the motor plate off by using a Phillips head screwdriver - Dissconnect the wires hooked to the motor - Pull the motor out - Put the new motor in - Connect the wires to the correct connectors (red to red, black to black) - Push the motor slightly into the gearbox then release pressure (just to make sure it won't stick) - Put the motor plate back on and screw it back in If it just accidentally unconnected: - Take the motor plate off - Reconnect the wires to the correct connectors - Check to make sure the motor won't stick - Put the motor plate back on


How do you make a toy car have a motor 2 1.5 volt battery and a switch need to make it as fast as possible someone please tell us how to connect the battery motor and switch and strategies?

I would suggest that you connect all components in series. That is, + of the first battery to - of the second. + of that battery to the switch and the second terminal of the switch to the motor. The last wire from the motor back to the - of the first battery. To reverse direction of the motor just swap the leads. There are many factors that will also affect speed such as how the motor is connected to the wheels, type of bearings, even the width and diameter of the wheels. Good luck and have fun!

How do you make working model on green energy?

Connect the rotor of a DC motor to some sort of fan (like a pinwheel) and instead of connecting a battery to the motor, connect a 2V DC bulb. Then blow. (could try dismantling one of those hand-held, battery poweref fans you get - the motor works both ways).
