Thank you so much, but please bear with me, the novice I am in electronics. If I could not get any audio out of the speaker with the 6V 4AH battery then how it is possible that I did with the 6V 12AH one? That was my reasoning for going ahead and trying a 6V 20AH battery. Does this reasoning make sense or can I expect to be disappointed with investing in the 20AH battery other than a longer life?
