connecting lifepo4 batteries in series

Why cant I run more than 4 lifepo4 batteries in parallel?

Our Lifepo4 batteries can be connected in parallels and in series for larger capacity and voltage. Allow to be extended up to 4 in series and 4 in parallel (Max 4S4P) to get more capacity (Max 800Ah) and higher voltage (24V, 36V, 48V).

Powering Up Safely: A Guide to Wiring Lithium-Ion Batteries in Series

Note that when connecting batteries in series you are increasing the voltage of the system. For example, connecting two of our 12-volt 100 amp-hour Renewed Power Packs in series will create a 24-volt 100 amp-hour battery. The overall capacity is driven by the lowest capacity in the string (the so-called "bucket effect"). So if you were to

Connecting batteries in parallel – BatteryGuy Knowledge Base

Connecting in parallel increases amp hour capacity only. The basic concept is that when connecting in parallel, you add the amp hour ratings of the batteries together, but the voltage remains the same. For example: two 6 volt 4.5 Ah batteries wired in parallel are capable of providing 6 volt 9 amp hours (4.5 Ah + 4.5 Ah).
