Module Configuration
Warning: Do not connect batteries in series.
Connecting in series exceeds the voltage limit of
the integrated safety protection circuitry and can damage the battery and void the warranty.
Parallel connections
Two or more batteries can be connected together in parallel to increase the capacity of the
battery system. The negative terminal of the first battery is connected via jumper cable to the
negative terminal of the second battery. Use another set of jumper cables with the same wire
gauge to connect the positive terminals of both batteries together. Connect a signal cable from
one signal port to another. This connection process can be repeated to up to the max scalability
or until the desired capacity is reached. Finally, use another set of power cables with the same
wire gauge to connect the positive terminal from the first battery and the negative terminal from
the last battery in the parallel chain to the host system. This will ensure proper balancing of the
system. See parallel connection diagram below.
Note: CAN lines in the battery pack DO NOT have internal termination resistance. It is
recommended to properly terminate the system and battery CAN Bus lines following the CAN
Bus termination standards. For any technical questions about properly adding termination
resistance, please contact technical support at [email protected].
