Battery Information
Battery Banks
As your power requirements increase, you may need to use
more than one battery to obtain sufficient capacity. Batteries
can be connected in parallel, in series, or in series-parallel to
create higher capacity systems.
See “Battery Cabling and Hook-up Configurations” on page
6
for more information about battery inter-connection
schemes.
Mixing Batteries
Batteries connected in parallel should be
of the same type and amp-hour rating and from the same
manufacturer.
It is not recommended to connect batteries of different types,
amp-hour ratings or manufacturers. Improper charging and
decreased battery life will result.
Battery Bank Sizing Worksheet
The following worksheet is a guide to help you determine
your battery needs. Be generous in estimating the time for
which you will run each of the loads to ensure sufficient
battery capacity.
EXPLOSION HAZARD
Do not mix different battery types within the same battery bank.
Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.
