Just running this through my mind...I have a Sur-ron electric bike coming and I was going to build another 60 volt pack with maybe 7 cells in parallel (16S 7P). The thing is the 2 cells I can get may not work...One is the BAK cells which are 3000 mah but only 2C (3C burst) and the other is EVE at 2600 but 3C continuous. The cells in the bike are Panasonic PF cells at 3000 Mah and 10 amp max discharge. If I add the extender pack in parallel with the EVE cells, then I dont think it will work, because the capacity of the EVE and the PF cells are different. I think as the pack gets drawn down, the EVE cells will begin discharging faster and the Panasonic cells will then begin charging them to keep the same voltage putting strain on the PF cells. Maybe the water filling different size tanks analogy is the one to use in which case it should be fine...any comments would be appreciated...
