      Most of those have 8 C batteries in them, not AAs. That one battery there is unique.

      Just make sure its a 6v, because they make 9V in the same shape with 4 large cells on the inside.

      even the 6v ones. There's a BUNCH of videos on youtube proving it has been faked.

      send this link to mythbusters, they'll figure it out. i think it's a huge conspiracy started by the battery manufacturers to boost lamp bat sales.

      People really are dumb....

      Each AA battery is 1.5V (AAA, C, and D batteries as well)

      How could 32 1.5V batteries = 6v

      Ok you take the 32 cells and divide them up into 4 seperate sets.

      That leaves 4 sets of six. each single set would be wired in parallel making 4 sets of 1.5 output then you series each set to each other then that makes 6 volts from 32 cells... R/C car math..

      crude drawing...
      Nothing says "I built this" better than tool marks and dykem blue..
