Yes, but even that is not enough. Need a proper connector wires capable of 2 amps, with properly soldered connection. The days of using crocodile clips etc are long gone. Since you have a plug, presumably you have an engine and maybe even a model. Must have invested a few thousand Rs. The right solution to avoid frustration is to get a rechargeable glow booster for about Rs 700. Online from say RcBazaar or other outlets listed in this forum. Best of luck.

Title: Re: Again trouble with glow plug...... Post by: saikat on December 18, 2013, 07:31:20 PM use 3 or 4 cells in parallel - your 1.2v battery cannot supply the current - it seems you are using one single nimh pencell - it that correct ?
Title: Re: Again trouble with glow plug...... Post by: shijin ps on December 18, 2013, 07:42:51 PM yep u are correct sir, thanks for your advice next time i will try with 3 or 4 cells.

See colour. Should glow orange. If dull red, voltage too low. Charge battery and/or increase capacity. Title: Re: Again trouble with glow plug...... Post by: shijin ps on December 18, 2013, 08:21:10 PM thank you iyer sir.
Title: Re: Again trouble with glow plug...... Post by: v2 eagle on December 19, 2013, 03:34:03 AM Im using a single AA1600mah 1.2v cell and it still glows good.
the issue is not with the battery capacity, either its a worn plug or the battery nearing its life. check the voltage when connected to plug, it should be around .8volt. Also make sure the contact surface between battery/plug/connector is not oxidised.
