Can somebody tell me if LED lights could be powered in a parralell circuit via a nine volt or maybe even a AA? I'm making a 12 inch bat and i want to make his chest light up...I'm sure it's a long shot, but I've got an old sound attack from somebody but it only has 2 lights, and I want 4. Thanks and if you have any other info that might be handy, feel free.

thanks again

for LED's try radio shack ....as far as a 9v powering them in a par circut .. it should work but do you want them to light together or chase each other ???

lighting together would be fine..nothing too fancy. Do you think the set up would fit in the chest cavity of a 12 inch figure?

LEDs can be paralell wired.

I've done 6 using a 9volt, it made the LEDs really bright.

an A battery is 1.5v if you ran those serial you can get 3v and a dimmer light if you want.
