So 10 NiMh in parallel would give 12V. Wondering if the string would be manufactured with some circuitry in the cigar lighter plug to knock down the actual 14.2v to a true 12v input, or if the string expects 14v.
10 Lithium would give a higher voltage, so wondering if that might be bad for the LEDs if they want a true 12v.
This brand uses 5mm LEDs said to draw 0.01 Amps for a 20 light string on 22 AWG wire, lit length 9.5 feet. You can connect up to 30 in series.
Where can I find a battery holder configured to do 10 in parallel?
