Customer ServiceMY own personal rule is two batteries, 150% current of one battery. So with two batteries each capable of 100 amps, with 2 in parallel, you can pull 150 amps, so even if there is a 50 amp difference, the high battery is only at 100 amps, and the low one is providing the other 50 amps. Go to 4 batteries, and now you should be safe pushing 225%

Customer Service**The answer to the question "Should you store batteries in the refrigerator?" is no.** Contrary to popular belief, refrigeration has no significant impact on battery life or performance. In fact, storing batteries in extremely low temperatures can have adverse effects, leading to reduced efficiency or even irreversible damage.
Customer ServiceKeep batteries of the same type and age stored together. Avoid mixing different types of batteries with varying levels of power. The older batteries can drain energy from the newer batteries. Do not remove the plastic caps from 9V batteries until they are in use. Make sure the batteries won''t be punctured or crushed while they are in storage
Customer ServiceThere is no limit to how many batteries you can wire in parallel. The more batteries you add in a parallel circuit, the more capacity and longer runtime you will have available. Remember that the more batteries you have in parallel, the longer it will take to charge the system. Huge parallel battery banks also have much higher current availability.
Customer ServiceLearn the do''s and don''ts of storing batteries to preserve their shelf life and prevent safety hazards, such as overheating and short circuits.
Customer ServiceDry batteries have a 1.5 V nominal voltage, slightly higher than the actual working voltage required by the device. Rechargeable batteries such as eneloop have a nominal voltage of 1.2 V. Although the voltage of rechargeable batteries is less than dry batteries, they provide similar performance. Generally speaking, rechargeable Ni-MH batteries

Customer ServiceHowever, current law states that single use batteries can be disposed of in the regular trash (because they are now made of common non-hazardous metals) in every state except for California where it is still illegal to throw away any batteries in the household trash. Never store batteries in a plastic sandwich bag.
Customer ServiceImpurities in the lead alloy, separators and electrolyte cause tiny currents inside a cell, eventually discharging the battery and shortening its shelf life. Premium inter-cell welds block the slight cell-to-cell currents that cause self-discharge.

Customer ServiceConnecting batteries in series will increase the voltage and keep current capacity constant. When you connect batteries in series : Vtotal = V1+V2+...+Vn (e.g. 1.5+1.5+1.5=4.5V) Current capacity = lowest current capacity between batteries (e.g. 2A) Connecting batteries in parallel will increase the current and keep voltage constant.
Customer ServiceBut that''s why batteries do have shelf lives, so pay attention to the expiration dates. There are, however, two exceptions to the no-fridge rule. Nickel-cadmium (Ni-Cd) and nickel-metal hydride (NiMH) batteries have much higher self-discharge rates — up to several percent per day — so they could benefit from being stored in

Customer ServiceBattery shelf life is the length of time a battery can remains in storage without losing its capacity.Even when not in use, batteries age.The battery''s aging is generally affected by three factors: the active chemicals present in the cells, the storage temperature and the length of time it remains idle.. During storage, batteries self-discharge and their contents are prone to
Customer ServiceAs a general rule, batteries are considered to have a shelf life of about 10 years, but it varies between different types of batteries, and can be impacted by various external factors. Shelf life is partially determined by batteries'' self-discharge rate, which is the rate at which they lose power when not in use.

Customer ServiceDon't sweat it too much, as most losses are negligible. Alkaline batteries, for instance, typically lose less than 2% of their charges in a year. But that's why batteries do have shelf lives, so pay attention to the expiration dates. There are, however, two exceptions to the no-fridge rule.
However, the top of the battery must be kept clean and dry. Temperature stratification within large batteries could accelerate the self-discharge if the battery is sitting on a cold floor in a warm room or is installed in a submarine. Can I store my battery in my garage during the winter, or will it freeze?
The best option for loose batteries is to store them in a way that allows them to lay side-by-side. Batteries are a choking hazard, especially coin cells and other small batteries. They should always be stored in a place that is out of the reach of toddlers and small children.
"While some battery chemistries may benefit from being stored in a refrigerator, the benefits of this do not outweigh the cons." On the other hand, extreme heat isn't great for batteries either, as it can cause their self-discharge rates to go up.
Batteries should never come into contact with metallic items or other batteries to avoid the risk of short-circuiting. Ideally, store batteries in their original packaging or wrap them individually in plastic. Store Ni-MH and Ni-CD batteries at about 40% state of charge (SoC) to minimize capacity loss while maintaining operational readiness.
This is especially likely if a mixture of different sized and shaped batteries are stored in the same bag, with coin batteries easily becoming stacked or sandwiched between the poles of other batteries by mistake. The best option for loose batteries is to store them in a way that allows them to lay side-by-side.
