Summary for the Tamiya 70148 R20/D/UM1 battery box

The Tamiya 70148 R20/D/UM1 Battery Box Set is a compact power module for hobbyists and workshop sessions. It accepts D size cells and can be arranged inline or side by side to suit different project footprints.

Materials and switch details

With steel contacts to maintain solid electrical links, the battery box supports routine model and classroom use. The built in switch includes a reverse option so you can change polarity or motor direction without extra wiring.

Best use cases

Well suited to simple electronics, robotics trials and teaching environments, the unit can be combined with other D cell boxes to increase capacity or adapt voltage for your experiment.

Are there safety tips for classroom use?

Keep batteries the correct way round and avoid shorting contacts; supervise younger users and remove batteries between sessions to prevent leakage and accidental drains.

Can it be used in school workshops with small motors?

Yes, it is suitable for low current motors typical in educational projects; check the motor current and battery condition to ensure safe operation and reasonable run times.

How should I maintain the steel contacts?

Inspect contacts periodically for dirt or corrosion and clean them with a dry cloth; good contact surface and spring tension help avoid intermittent power issues.

Is pairing with other battery boxes straightforward?

Yes, pairing is common to boost runtime or capacity; ensure batteries are the same type and state of charge and use proper wiring to prevent reverse currents.
