why do I need 2 D batteries, if one is 1.5 volts ,,is it not enough mah in a regular off the shelf battery or do you guys use rechargable....? Rog
Hello Rog, Ya know I had the same question a long time ago and never got a good answer. I then got 2D batteries and first hooked up one to the glow plug, then two. I dont know why but two cells turned the element a bright ,blinding red where as one cell only made it glow weakly. I then checked each cell with my multimeter and the were both esentially putting out 1.51 volts. I'm no electronics wiz mabee it has to do with amps or somthing. Ya got me! all I know is two is the magic number.
