Hi,
I m new to robotic, I m looking for battery which is suitable for Arduino Braccio Robotic Arm. For my requirement, I need to move the arm to different positions without connected to power supply.
Thanks,
Almost any battery rated at 5 volts (or more but regulated back down to 5 volts) and capable of 5 amps (or more) would give you something suitable.
See the TECH SPECS section.
Some aspects will depend on how long you want to run things for in stand-alone mode.
Moved your topic to it's current location as it is more suitable.
Could you take a few moments to Learn How To Use The Forum.
Other general help and troubleshooting advice can be found here.
It will help you get the best out of the forum in the future.
Thanks for the reply,
I m working on a project where arm can interact with roscar, May need to run around 20 to 30 mins per charge. If you point me any links that will great.
What do you have available to you rather than buying something ?
A car battery would suffice and all you would need to do is reduce the 12 volts down to 5 volts.
For that voltage reduction you have a lot of options.
Part also depends on if you want to buy online or local ?
For online then if you dont mind a small amount of time I use Aliexpress but if you needed it quicker then Amazon (but at more cost)
Those are just two examples from many.
Stay above 5 amps to give yourself some wiggle room.
thanks for the reply.
But here the robotic car doesn't have so much power source. It has usb 2.0 power out which is max of 2.5 volts. I tested with that power out Arm doesn't function properly.
USB 1 and 2.0 output 5 volts at 500 mA.
USB 3 outputs 5 volts also, but depending on the implementation can usually give more current.
If you don't get 5 volts you have an issue elsewhere with your circuit.
If its safe with 6V than a SLA or LiFePO4 are possible choices.
