Power Supply: 12 V Max. Battery Eliminator
| Unit Price | $79.95 |
| 6+ | $74.50 |
Reliable battery alternative for classroom experiments
Stop chasing dead batteries mid-lab. The 12 V Max Battery Eliminator is a compact, stepped-output power supply that replaces common battery packs in classroom experiments. With selectable voltages from 1.5 V up to 12 V and standard 4 mm safety sockets, it powers student circuits quickly and consistently—no guessing how much charge is left or hunting for the right cells.
Note: Requires 4 mm banana plugs/leads (not included). Max current 1 A.
Why Teachers Love the Power Supply: 12 V Max Battery Eliminator
- Reliable “battery replacement” for most labs: Stepped settings cover the key battery combinations students use (1.5, 3, 4.5, 6, 9, 12 V).
- Safe for student use: Outputs through 4 mm safety sockets and includes overload + short-circuit protection at 1 A.
- Saves time and budget: Fewer disposable batteries, less downtime, and repeatable results across lab groups.
- Lightweight, classroom-portable: Small footprint makes it easy to move between stations.

Pair It With Other Arbor Scientific Products to Teach Key Topics
- Investigating Electrical Circuits Kit (96-1500): Series/parallel circuits, current vs. voltage, resistance, and brightness comparisons without worrying about battery drain.
- Ohm’s Law Experiment Kit (P6-8011): Ohm’s Law, V-I graphs, and equivalent resistance using stable, known voltages.
- Digital Bench Voltmeter (P6-8070) & Digital Bench Ammeter (P6-8060): Quantitative circuit analysis—students can measure V and I precisely while varying the eliminator’s stepped output.
- LED / Motor / Buzzer circuit accessories: Energy transfer and power in circuits by comparing how different loads change current draw and “effort” required from the source.
