However, Alkaline Primary AAA batteries provide less current than AA sized, and those less than C sized. The same can be said for D size. This is why I suggested the largest commonly available battery. To address a possible and likely problem you are having. For common servos only the controlling wire is connected to the Arduino. The ground is common to both the Arduino and servo. The power leads of each can be connected to one sufficiently large or two smaller power sources. Usually these need to be the same voltage. | |
