Thanks for the reply.
Another question if you please.
If i have a component which is specified as requiring 9V and 6A what would happen in the following 2 scenarios:
1 - Provide battery power of 6v and 12 A
2 - Provide battery power of 12 v and 6 A
I assume in sceanrio 1, the component would take as much current as it wants. An excess of amps isn't harmful?
and in scenario 2, the excess volts is going to dammage the component.
Generally speaking?

I'll explain. I'm playing about with a Thermoelectric module. This specific one requires 9v and 6a to operate at full temperature difference.
I've tried connecting it to 3 aa batteries. I'm unsure of their current values. Heres the question. Let say for argument sake, that the 3 batteries provide in total, 7 amps (lets say). Is this going to blow/damage the TE module, or, is the TE module (load) going to take as much as it needs??
Second question. (I get mixed up between series and parallel connections- so forgive me please)... Lets say I connect up 2 TE modules, in parellel, again, with a 9v and 6a power supply. If connected up in parallel, will they both work of 9v and 6a (i.e. no extra power required). question 3 --- will connecting 2 te modules in the circuit reduce the battery life?
yes it should be connected correctly though..the 1000uF capacitor literally connects between the positive and the negative of the power supply?..
