    Can anyone think of any kind of device like a flash light a toy that take those rectangled 9 volt batteries. I need to test to see how long it will last and it haves to have those 9 volt connectors too.

    get a voltmeter and test it first, then get a snap on thingie with two wires coming out, then get the end off a flashlight that uses round batteries and attach the wires and keep track of the time the light stays on from 9 volts to 1 volt or whenever it goes to dim and test it again.

    The only things I know of are effects pedals for electric guitars and basses, and my VOM (volt-ohm meter) also uses a 9 volt to test circuit continuity (aka an ohm test).

    Just take the bulb out of any flashlight. Preferably a MAG-Lite 5-cell. You can just touch the contacts to light the bulb.

    One of my ten remote controls uses a 9 volt. Also, my remote for my garage door uses a 9 volt. And you could put the battery in your mouth all day and get a charge, lol. That is how I always tested them to see if they were any good, just touch them to your tounge. :<))

    Vibrators take cylindrical batteries. AA or C are common.

    The OP needs 6 flashlight bulbs and lenghts of thin wire.

    Each flashlight bulb takes 1.5V, so if all six are wired in series that makes 9V.

    The wattage of each bulb is noted and totaled.

    Wire the battery into the circuit and time how long it takes the battery to run out.

    Watts = Volts X Amps.
    We know that Volts = 9.
    Watts is the total from the flashlight bulbs.
    So the battery was putting out Amps = Watts / 9 until it ran dry.

    How many HOURS (make sure its in hours not minutes) did it take the battery to run dry.
    Amps (from the equation above) X hours = Amp Hours,
    which is the "amount of electricity" that a battery holds.

    Is that what this is about?

    Some stun guns and taser guns use 9v. The ol' M26 uses 8 AA.
