Connecting LiFePO4 battery in parallel is when you connect two or more batteries together to increase the amp-hour capacity. With a parallel battery connection the capacity will increase, however the battery voltage will remain the same. For example, if you connect four 12V 100Ah batteries in parallel, you would get a 12V 400Ah LiFePO4 battery […]
