Can lithium batteries be wired in parallel? In other words would 2 12v 10ah batteries wired in parallel be the same as a 12v 20ah battery? 3 the same as a 30ah battery?
My storage nook isn't tall enough for a 30ah battery.

Double check but I don’t think it’s a problem if you install lithium batteries on there sides. Might help you with installation and save some money. :dono
Thanks, I am waiting on a reply from a battery shop on that possibility.
Lithium batterys contain no liquid and can be mounted or installed in any position.
The electrolyte in LiFePo batteries is usually lithium perchlorate dissolved in a solvent, so there is liquid in the battery. What battery do you have?
The electrolite is gelled, no vents, battery is sealed.
What I have is an EcoWorthy 12v 10ah which will run my electronics about 4 hours. I need at least twice that.
I have room for 2 more just like that one if they can be wired in parallel, if not I could use a 30ah battery if I can lay it on its side.
The cost would be about the same.
I don't have room for a 50ah.
Depending on the make of your lithium battery, and it’s BMS of that battery, you can wire a 100 amp parallel to a 50 amp and a 30 amp and use all 3 parallel as the BMS will deliver the amp usage equally from the 3 batteries not draining the 30 amp any quicker than the 100 amp or 50 also. I checked this out with the Ionics lithium battery technicians and even tried it experimenting. Lithiums with a 12 volt trolling motor can be used that way. I have 2-100 amp, 1 50 amp, 1 30 amp, and a 20 amp also as use them for various setups as well have wired them in different setups on my boat as well as hunting usages.
All current generations of Lithium-ion cells contain a liquid (paste or gel) Electrolyte that is both flammable and corrosive.

Flat-pack cells are essentially the same construction but laid flat rather than being rolled into a cylinder and housed within a metal case. Such cells are commonly used in Phones, i-pads, etc., where space is at a premium.
But they are not supposed to look like this inside....Attachment 398821
Sorry G, didn't see this post. I think we are on the same page. :ThumbsUpQuote:
