But what happens if you wire batteries of different voltages and amp hour capacities together in parallel? This is the big "no go area".
Customer ServiceI have the 6000mAh battery, and tons of smaller ones, and the idea occurred to me that if all the smaller ones were identical in age, capacity, voltage, and charge, and I matched their total charge (6000) to the other battery (6000) then for charge/discharge purposes that might alleviate the load on any other batteries in the parallel whose total capacity is less

Customer ServiceCan I connect batteries of different Amp-Hours in series? No, but that is not what you are proposing (Your series banks all use two batteries which have the same capacity). Lead-Acid Batteries can safely be connected
Customer ServiceTwo batteries with different capacities in parallel charged to 70% 2. Batteries must have their own BMS. The BMS is responsible for managing the charge and discharge process, keeping each cell within safe operating limits, preventing overcharging and over-discharging, balancing the cells, and providing essential data about the battery. Therefore,
Customer ServiceThe answer is yes, you can parallel two batteries with different Ah. However, it is important to keep in mind that the lower-capacity battery will always be the limiting factor in the system. This means that if you have a 100 Ah battery and a 50 Ah battery, both connected in parallel, the system will only provide 50 Ah of power.
Customer ServiceDo not connect batteries with different chemistries, rated capacities, nominal voltages, brands, or models in parallel, series, or series-parallel. This can result in potential damage to the batteries and the connected devices, and can also pose safety risks. The cables between each connected battery should be of equal length to ensure that all batteries can
Customer ServiceYes, you can put two different-capacity batteries in parallel. This is often done when one battery is not large enough to provide the power needed for a certain application. When two batteries are connected in parallel, the voltage remains the same but the current capacity is increased. Can I Use Different Ah Battery? Ah, the age-old question.
If you’re unsure, it’s always best to consult with a professional before connecting any batteries together. Batteries of different Ah can be connected in parallel using diodes. This will allow the batteries to charge and discharge at the same time. The diodes will prevent the batteries from overcharging or discharging.
(Details Analysis) The answer is yes, you can parallel two batteries with different Ah. However, it is important to keep in mind that the lower-capacity battery will always be the limiting factor in the system. This means that if you have a 100 Ah battery and a 50 Ah battery, both connected in parallel, the system will only provide 50 Ah of power.
The answer depends on a few factors, but in general, charging batteries in parallel is the best option. Charging batteries in parallel means that each battery receives the same amount of current. This is important because it helps to prevent overcharging, which can damage the battery.
You need same capacity for the series, and same voltage for the parallel. Just be sure to monitor the voltage of each cell in the series from time to time, to ensure that every battery is always at about the same voltage. Okay thanks! Should I take any other precautions? If you're still stupid enough to do this: a fuse in series with each battery.
This configuration increases the total capacity (Ah rating) while maintaining the same voltage. For example, two 12V batteries, each rated at 10 Ah, connected in parallel will result in a 12V system with a total capacity of 20 Ah. Mixing batteries with different Ah ratings in parallel can offer certain advantages, such as:
