I have a problem, I made this circuit using wires, a bulb and a battery, but I can’t get the bulb to light up. Does anyone have any ideas about what I could do to make it work?
Try putting the wires on the same side of the bulb GB
Put the wires on the same end of the battery
JB
Switch over the wires to the opposite ends of the battery DJB
Try replacing the bulb! H Rush
no! put the wires on each end of the battery S.F
Put The Wires on opposite ends of the bulb and battery like a circle JM
Try Screwing the bulb in tighter to make sure the bulb is touching the metal plate on the bottom of the bulb holder. JM SF
We found out that if we use thicker wires the bulb would light up brighter.Does anyone know why this is? SF JM
Try a switch from EP from Room 8
Try a different voltage lightbulb. Use a 2.5 volt lightbult and a 3 v battery and hopefully this will work. JP-Room 8
We think that the bulb gets brighter if you use thick wires because there are lots of tiny wires in the thick wire so more power goes through them - Room 10
Change the battery CB (Yr4 QLC)
Replace wire CN
Check if it is conducting wire JG
