Many customers ask if they can put a set of batteries in parallel first and then in series. Either way is okay, as electricity will flow through parallel or series connections like it
If a large battery bank is needed, we do not recommend that you construct the battery bank out of numerous series/parallel 12V lead acid batteries. The maximum is at around 3 (or 4) paralleled

When charging multiple batteries in parallel, ensure that they are charged simultaneously with a charger that matches their combined capacity.
Never daisy-chain batteries in parallel, as this can create uneven load distribution and shorten battery life. For a simple setup with
Never daisy-chain batteries in parallel, as this can create uneven load distribution and shorten battery life. For a simple setup with just two batteries, connect them in parallel
Learn how to connect batteries in series and parallel for different voltage and amp-hour capacities. Battery Tender® offers detailed instructions and diagrams for safely charging and configuring
The number of batteries you can wire in series, parallel, or series-parallel depends on the specific application and the capabilities of the battery
If a large battery bank is needed, we do not recommend that you construct the battery bank out of numerous series/parallel 12V lead acid batteries.
When wiring in series, always use batteries with identical voltage and capacity to avoid imbalance and overheating. In parallel wiring, all positive terminals connect together, and all negative
When charging multiple batteries in parallel, ensure that they are charged simultaneously with a charger that matches their combined
Batteries are connected in parallel strings with other individual batteries to meet the required capacity or run-time of the loads the battery bank will need to support.
The number of batteries you can wire in series, parallel, or series-parallel depends on the specific application and the capabilities of the battery bank you are building.
With secondary (rechargeable) batteries – only use batteries of the same brand and age and make sure all the units are fully charged before connecting them together in parallel.
