Yes - there are 1.5v rechargeable batteries available although very scarse - e.g. GRANDCELL alkaline rechargeable batteries made by Grand Battery Technologies in Canada. 0% Cadmium, 0% Mercury. Available in AA and AAA sizes. If your question is can normal 1.5 volt regular batteries be used instead of rechargeable 1.2 volt batteries, the answer is yes. I do it with my camera batteries all the time when I forget to charge the NiCds. Tip always use alkaline to prevent damage if you forget your batteries in the device for an extended period.

What will happen when a 15v current flows through a 6V bulb?

It will glow VERY BRIGHTLY for a few seconds - and then burn out.


What is a 15 amp hookup?

A plug and play 15v amp circuit is one that you can simply plug in. It has a three pronged plug so no special wiring is needed.


Can you use a 19v adapter on a 15v device?

In short: Yes. As long as the voltage is the same, it makes no difference if the rated current is higher on the supply than on the device you want to operate. If you would take a 1.5 amp adapter for a 2 amp device, you overload the adapter which results in shut down or failure.


What is the problem when heat is produced in rheostat?

How much heat? All resistors heat up in operation; the function of a resistor, and a rheostat (they're called potentiometers now) is a resistor, is to allow less electricity to come out than went in. The only thing it can do with the excess is dissipate it as heat. If the part is in a properly designed, properly working circuit the heat should not be excessive; check the part's data sheet for excessive because it's different for all of them - a resistor in an iPod won't get as hot as a resistor in a nuclear reactor's power output circuit. If it is excessive, two reasons it could be that way are something else in the circuit is malfunctioning and pulling too much power through the resistor, or the circuit is designed wrong. Example: in the old days a computer needed three voltages: +5, -5 and +12. You needed a lot of amps at +5 and not many at the other voltages. The official way to do it was to use a transformer with a 15v and two 8v windings - voltage regulators need a few more volts coming in than they put out. Some idiots would put a single 18v transformer in there, drop voltage to 5 with a regulator then wonder why the regulators glowed red. They were asking the parts to do too much.
