What is a series & parallel battery?

Wiring batteries in series and parallel is the combination used to increased both voltage and capacity the battery bank. With this arrangement, you not only increase the voltage but also double the capacity, making it suitable for systems that require both high power output and longer runtime.

What is a parallel battery configuration?

Parallel configurations also promote longer lifespans for individual batteries by distributing the load evenly. Using battery packs in parallel increases total capacity. Parallel connections sum the capacity of each battery. For example, two 12V batteries with a capacity of 100Ah each will provide a total capacity of 200Ah at the same voltage.

What is the difference between series and parallel battery packs?

The key differences between battery packs in series and parallel involve voltage and capacity configurations. Series battery packs increase voltage while maintaining the same capacity. In contrast, parallel battery packs increase capacity while maintaining the same voltage.

Can I connect my batteries in series or parallel?

You can connect your batteries in either of the following: Series connection results in voltages adding and amperage remaining the same while parallel connection results in amperages adding and voltages remaining the same. Series-parallel connection results in both voltage and amperage adding.
