Hello. I'm using an Arduino Mega to control 9 standard servo motors. I'm trying to figure out what options I have for powering the whole setup autonomously without having to have it plugged into the USB. Thanks!! :smiley: :smiley:

Motors + go to battery pack. Connect all grounds.

Batteries - maybe 5 AAs for the Mega, and 5 C-cells for the servos.
Seperate battery packs tho.
