I´m about to test servos with arduino (i´m newbie here) and time ago i´ve read servos produce problems in the voltage-cables and because of that are to be used with an extern independent V-source (4x1,5V Batterie for example)
Is this true, or can i power the servos with the Arduino connected per Usb?
If not, i would like to try with a 9v-Batterie....would be enough using a resistor as voltage-divider in line with the motor between motor and +9V?
With a stall current of 440ma, you MIGHT be able to get away with powering one from the arduino. Any more than that and you're just asking for trouble. A 9v battery isn't a great power source either, as you'll be able to drain it pretty fast. I'd use a pair of lithium rechargeable batteries and a 5v regulator.
