Hello all,
I really hate to post a question so deep inside a thread but this is the most related thread I could find for my question about series and parallel connections of LiPo batteries. Please tell me if I should start a new thread now. I don't mind.
Can serial connected cells also be paralleled in order to keep them balanced during discharge and bulk charging? It seems that if the cell potential should be roughly the same, a parallel connection between cells should keep the cells balanced better.
What if we have a 10s battery comprised of two 5s packs. Can the cells of the two 5s packs be connected in parallel (using the balance leads) while being discharged and charged as a 10s battery (through the main leads)?
Thanks in advance for any guidance!
Dendy.
