    I am not sure what you mean by beans. But I have shoved some alligator clips into a battery compartment in a pinch. Two AA batteries in series are 3v so that is the voltage you would supply for that. Doesn’t come up much because I have quite a few rechargeable batteries around. I did recently find my old Tamagotchi and have been considering putting it on display somewhere after Frankensteining a power supply for it.

      By beans, I mean those little batteries that you find when you dismantle old headphones and such. They don’t look like batteries, just little blobs.

          No, not those. I’ve taken apart small electronics like headphones, and found what I thought were the “batteries,” but maybe they weren’t. I can’t find any photos of what I am thinking of.

          I can only conclude that I don’t have a clue what I am talking about. Please ignore.
