Adafruit 3x AA Battery Holder with On/Off Switch and 2-Pin JST

Here's another addition to our growing family of AA battery holders. Behold! A holder for three (3) AA batteries! It's got a 6" long genuine JST-PH 2-pin cable connector, an On/Off switch, and, oh yes, it's in classy Adafruit black. This battery holder connects 3 AA batteries together in series for powering all kinds of projects. We spec'd these out because the box is compact, and 3 AA's add up to about 3.3-4.5V, a very similar range to Lithium Ion/polymer (Li-Ion) batteries, plus it has a nifty on-off switch. That makes them ideal for use with 3.3V projects that have a 2-pin JST connector meant for one of our Li-Ion/Poly batteries. (Of course, you can't recharge them like Li-Ion/Polys, so don't try to plug this into one of our Li-Ion/Poly charger boards!).Fits any standard AA battery. When using rechargeable NiMH the output voltage will range from about 3.7V with charged batteries to 2.7V at the end of life with a nominal voltage of 3.6V. When using alkalines, the output will range from 4.5V with new batteries to 3.3V at the end of life with a nominal voltage of about 4.5V.The polarity matches that of our 2-pin JST cable and Li-Ion/Poly batteries. Uses a genuine JST connector, so it won't 'catch and tear' in JST connectors.Batteries are not included, but we have lots of options in the store
