making a simple battery pack?

2005-10-25 by rgmccaig

If I took 2 9v batteries in series to create 18V, plus a resistor in
series to lower the voltage, could I plug that in to run my Evo?

I am thinking the load of the Evolver is 15V / 0.5 A = 30 ohms?

So a 10 ohm resistor in series with the evolver would take 1/4 of the
18V, ie 4.5 V, leaving 13.5V for the Evo.

Anybody know if I'm thinking about it the right way?
