D Active Dummy Cell Battery - 11" Thin Flat Flexible Cable - 5.5mm x 2.1mm Barrel Socket - Works with Battery Eliminator Kits

NO LONGER RECOMMENDED. REPLACED WITH NEXT-GENERATION PART: D-ACTIVE-DUMMY-NG.

Description

This D Active Dummy Cell Battery is used to replace a real D battery in flameless LED candles and other electronic devices that use one or more D batteries. It has an 11" long thin flat flexible cable (FFC cable) with a 5.5mm x 2.1mm barrel socket at the end and works with the barrel plugs on all of our Battery Eliminator Kits and Accessories (Power Splitter Cables, Power Extension Cables, AC to DC Wall Power Adapters, etc.). Works by itself or in conjunction with our D Passive Dummy Cell Batteries and the appropriate AC to DC Wall Power Adapter to eliminate expensive batteries that are constantly having to be replaced. Please read the detailed discussion and diagram for the components that make up a complete Battery Eliminator solution. Stop changing out dead batteries and start saving money with our battery eliminator kits & accessories.

This D Active Dummy Cell Battery is one component of an overall Battery Eliminator solution which consists of a D Active Dummy Cell Battery (this component), our D Passive Dummy Cell Batteries (part number D-PASSIVE-DUMMY - quantity depends on the number of regular batteries required by the electronic device), and an AC to DC Wall Power Adapter (DC output voltage depends on the number of batteries used by the electronic device). The tip/inner conductor of the barrel socket goes to the (+) terminal of the D Active Dummy Cell Battery, and the ring/outer conductor of the barrel socket goes to the (-) terminal of the D Active Dummy Cell Battery. This internal connection is needed to complete the circuit necessary in the electronic device when used by itself or in conjunction with our D Passive Dummy Cell Batteries.

This D Active Dummy Cell Battery is the same size as a real D battery, so it fits in one of the battery spaces in the battery compartment. It doesn't matter which space it goes into as long as the correct polarity is still observed as with regular batteries. The FFC cable can easily be run around the side of most battery compartment covers, so the original battery cover can still be used. In some cases, it might be necessary to take a small file and file out a shallow groove which gives the flat cable a little bit more room to run around the side of the battery cover.

As an example, suppose you want to eliminate 2 x D batteries, You will need 1 x D Active Dummy Cell Battery (this component), 1 x D Passive Dummy Cell Battery and an AC to DC Wall Power Adapter that supplies the appropriate power for electronic devices that use 2 x D batteries. Since each regular D battery supplies 1.5VDC, two D batteries will supply 3VDC, so you would need an AC to DC Wall Power Adapter that supplies an output voltage around 3VDC (3.3VDC is also acceptable).

As another example, suppose you want to eliminate 3 x D batteries. You will need 1 x D Active Dummy Cell Battery (this component), 2 x D Passive Dummy Cell Batteries and an AC to DC Wall Power Adapter that supplies the appropriate power for electronic devices that use 3 x D batteries. Since each regular D battery supplies 1.5VDC, three D batteries will supply 4.5VDC, so you would need an AC to DC Wall Adapter that supplies an output voltage around 4.5VDC (5VDC is also acceptable).

NOTE(S): This is not a real battery and will not power an electronic device on its own. It needs to be used in conjunction with the other necessary components that make up a complete Battery Eliminator solution as discussed above and depicted in the included diagram.

NOTE: This D Active Dummy Cell Battery is made of an AA Active Dummy Cell Battery and a hollow plastic AA to D converter case. The AA Active Dummy Cell Battery slides into the hollow plastic AA to D converter case as shown in the pictures. The hollow plastic AA to D converter case serves as a AA to D battery size converter, so it will properly fit in battery compartments that use D batteries.
