The parallel-connected batteries are capable of delivering more current than the series-connected batteries but the current actually delivered will depend on the applied voltage and load resistance. You understand Ohm's Law, but the "parallel batteries supply more current" statement should really be "parallel batteries CAN supply more current".
When batteries are connected in parallel, the voltage across each battery remains the same. For instance, if two 6-volt batteries are connected in parallel, the total voltage across the batteries would still be 6 volts. Effects of Parallel Connections on Current
Series Connection: In a battery in series, cells are connected end-to-end, increasing the total voltage. Parallel Connection: In parallel batteries, all positive terminals are connected together, and all negative terminals are connected together, keeping the voltage the same but increasing the total current.
To wire multiple batteries in parallel, connect the negative terminal (-) of one battery to the negative terminal (-) of another, and do the same to the positive terminals (+). For example, you can connect four Renogy 12V 200Ah Core Series LiFePO4 Batteries in parallel. In this system, the system voltage and current are calculated as follows:
Although it is never advisable to connect two non identical batteries in parallel because it does not make any sense it is useless and may destroy the batteries. In short, when two non-identical batteries are connected in parallel, current will flow from higher voltage battery to lower voltage battery. Which is not good.
A parallel battery circuit is a type of electrical circuit where multiple batteries are connected in parallel to provide more electrical power to a load. In this circuit, the positive terminals of all the batteries are connected together, and the negative terminals are connected together, forming a parallel connection.
Connecting batteries in parallel adds the amperage or capacity without changing the voltage of the battery system. To wire multiple batteries in parallel, connect the negative terminal (-) of one battery to the negative terminal (-) of another, …
