Hi there.
I'm pretty stupid concerning electronics, but I want to play around a bit.
I have two 6Volt UPS batteries that can give 4A/Hour (It's written on the battery). When I connect these two in series I get 12V. I probably will still have 4A/Hour (I don't know please correct me if I'm wrong). So now I have 12V. How would I get that 12V to 5V so I have a 12V and a
5V output from the batteries.Another thing, how does positive and negative DC work? The two UPS batteries when connected together and measured with a mulitmeter (+ with + and - with -), it says 11.something volts, but when I connect it (- with + and - with +) I get -14.something. Why is the negative voltage higher than the positive. How does this work?
Thank you in advance, Constant Meiring
