[QUOTE="Gary Gittleson, post: 126886, member: 3625"] The other drawback to parallel charging not mentioned so far is that different types of batteries, AGM, flooded, lithium etc. have different charge and max voltage requirements. But if they're all the same type and condition and all first brought up to full charge, then maybe it's a good idea. When you think about it, all these batteries are really multiples of single-cell batteries wired in series. In series or parallel, there will always be slight variations in condition of the individual cells. I have an old Yamaha electric golf cart for my wife to run about on here on the farm. It has six six-volt batteries wired in series. A 36-volt automatic charger charges them all together. [/QUOTE]
