What Is the D Cell Holder Used For?

In a school circuits lesson, each group snaps a cell into a holder and clips its wires to the Fahnestock clips to power a lamp, buzzer or small motor. Adding a second and third holder in series raises the voltage and the brighter lamp makes the result obvious, while linking holders in parallel keeps the voltage the same but lets the battery last longer. Screwing a row of holders to a baseboard turns them into a permanent, reusable battery for a demonstration panel or an electricity experiment kit.

Observe cell polarity when snapping cells in, and make sure the clips grip clean, bare wire for a good contact. Remove the cells before storing the holders so that any leakage cannot corrode the aluminium or the clips.
