9V batteries are a strange case: they're actually made of 6 very small 1.5V batteries, pretty much the size of coin cells. As a result they have very low capacity and capability and are very expensive. If you are drawing more than 20mA then they are probably not a good idea to use. | 9V batteries are a strange case: they're actually made of 6 very small 1.5V batteries, pretty much the size of coin cells.
