Liz0905:
If i use a 9V battery for the Arduino, do i need one more battery for my heating elements?!

Thank you.

5 50W heaters = 250W. That's serious power. Standard 9V batteries are good for 0.5W, and are
not 12V!

You should explain what you are trying to do, battery power for heating is usually not a sensible
approach.
