Quick guide for the people who wants a only one battery installed in "Cloneprops Ankle v2" to feed entire new MAGS v2´s(LEDS and EL´s) and charge/use in only ONE battery:
The usb plug connectors (that carry on new MAGS v2´s):
-USB works with 5V?:true, in mostly computers.
-New Mags v2 have 5v?: probably NOT.the volt tester would say the final voltage¡¡
-Why USB connector on v2's???:
probably use that plug connector because is too easy/cheap(in mostly chinese products you can find easily¡¡) and they have high stocks of that kind of plugs...but doesnt mean that the volts of original of v2's finally works with 5v¡¡¡¡¡.
what can i do to reconfigure my mags v2?
1-You need to find the battery on mags v2 and examine the voltage impressed over the surface, if is not possible(because battery is inside sole, for example) you need to use a volt tester to know exactly the voltage of electronics of entire shoe.
2- if the voltage is higher or lower than 3V you ned to readjust with additional ressistors to your 3V battery.
3- the diagram installation is:
two wires(+ -) from batteries to plug charger.
two wires(+ -) from batteries to EL inverter.(and ovbiously two wires from inverter to EL)
two wires (+ -)from batteries to RESSISTORS* that go directly to the LEDS.
the switch on/off needs to be between EL/LED wires(for example in both cables + )
*the ressistors depends of the original v2 voltage: if is higher than 3V you need to calculate a correct ressistor and add it to compensate the final voltage.
