Parallel- and Series Connection
Connection-Tips
Before connecting batteries in series or parallel, follow the battery checks described below:
a.
Connect batteries with the same capacity (Ah) only.
b.
Connect batteries of the same brand only..
Two necessary steps before connecting:
These two steps are necessary to reduce the voltage difference between the batteries, allowing the
battery system to perform optimally in series and/or parallel.
Step 1:
Charge your batteries individually to full capacity.
Step 2:
Connect your batteries one by one in parallel and leave them connected for 12-24
hours. Afterward, you can connect your batteries in series and/or parallel and charge or
discharge them together.
