SUMMARY
Connecting two solderless breadboards together using jumper wires is feasible and allows for expanded prototyping space. When linking the breadboards, it is crucial to pay attention to the power buses to ensure proper connectivity. The necessity of an additional voltage regulator depends on the current draw of the components being used; if the combined current exceeds the capacity of the existing regulator, a second one will be required. In this case, the user is operating with a 9V battery on the original breadboard.
