~Hypothetical~
I want to convert my Mountain Bike to electric, I can get my hands on a D-cell sized Battery cartridge that holds 3 rechargeable AA's in series, If I take (lets say 2) 28" "water Pipes" With threaded ends (and caps) with a diameter wide enough to house the batteries/wires (for any leakage) wired in parallel with each other and strapped to the bike and fed into a motor (and any controls) Could this be done? I mean we're talking about 3x1.2v AA's, 3.6v per cartridge, about 2" tall, means ~14 per tube, 50.4v per tube, in parallel, would keep the voltage the same but increase amps meaning the batteries would work longer. So with 50v and a 48v motor it SHOULD work right, yah with a slightly higher voltage it would tax the motor a bite but it should be fine... right?
An Electric bike COULD run on nothing but AA's?
Their cheap used in everything (almost) and don't require any special setups, this can be done?
