Why is it short i dont understand if i want to raise current but voltage remain the same parallel is the answer right.

By Ohms Law to raise the current, you have to either raise the voltage or lower the resistance of the lightbulb, you could put a second lamp in parallel with the other one.

Put the batteries in series not parallel if you need two batteries

I dont need more volts just more current

If you built such a device, extra power sources in parallel will add current. For this program, you will want to add a diode in series with each power source to avoid the error message.

Also, this app will not show the extra current regardless of how many power sources you add.

Actually, it will show the extra current using the ammeter symbol. Since the power-source is infinite, current values are only determined by the load. By adding 2 diodes and an ammeter, it shows a total current of 31.8mA, split evenly across the power-supplies and the lightbulbs.

Batteries have internal resistance. The ideal sources have zero resistance. You cant add ideal sources in parallel because of zero resistance.

rich11292000 is right . Just add 1 milli ohm resistor to the source and check
