For Raspberry Pi, use with a step-down regulator to 5V. Note that alkaline AA voltage drops under load; rechargeable NiMH cells output 4.8V, which may cause instability on some 5V logic boards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWiring Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRed wire is positive (+), black is negative (−). Connect directly to the VIN pin on Arduino for regulated 5V output. Ensure batteries are inserted with correct polarity, matching the markings inside the holder. Current rating is typically sufficient for small to medium projects (up to 500 mA).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy Buy from Compoden\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery component is sourced from verified suppliers and tested for compatibility before listing. We've spent 10 years building projects for makers, schools, and institutions across India. Ships from Bengaluru in 3-5 days. If defective on arrival, replace within 7 days.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eIs this compatible with Arduino?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, connect the red wire to VIN and black to GND. The 6V output is within the 7-12V recommended range, so it works but the onboard regulator will drop the voltage; for optimal efficiency, a 9V battery is preferred.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eCan I use rechargeable AA batteries?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, NiMH AA batteries work, but note the total voltage will be 4.8V (4 × 1.2V) which may cause instability on 5V logic boards. Some Arduinos may brown out when batteries discharge below 4.5V.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eWhat is the wire length?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe attached wires are approximately 15 cm long, giving you plenty of reach inside an enclosure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"compoden-handoff\" style=\"margin-top:24px;padding:16px;background:#f0f4ff;border-left:4px solid #2B4D8F;border-radius:4px;\"\u003e\n  \u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 6px 0;font-weight:600;color:#1A3560;\"\u003e📦 Free Setup Handoff Document Included\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp style=\"margin:0;font-size:0.95em;color:#333;\"\u003eEvery Compoden order includes a free setup handoff document — step-by-step instructions to get your component working within minutes.
