Abstract
Simple LR and RC circuits are familiar to generations of physics students as examples of single-exponential growth and decay in the relevant voltages, currents, and charges. An element of novelty can be introduced by connecting two (instead of one) LR coils in parallel with a battery. The resulting circuit can still be treated using little more than the basic tools (Kirchhoff's rules plus a trial exponential solution) employed in the standard LR analysis. But the solution is now a double exponential, as can be verified by constructing such a circuit.
