● The batteries connected in series must be of the same model, voltage and preferably from the same batch
● Before connecting batteries in series all batteries must be fully charged
4.4 Precautions for battery parallel connection
● Check table 2.1 if parallel connection is possible for a specific battery model
● Maximum number of batteries in parallel is listed in table 2.1
