Questions about LiPo's in parallel
Ok, I am mainly trying to make sure of a couple things here, I have a slight electrical engineering background (worked with electrical engineers on robotics and e-bike) so I beleive it should work well but want to make sure with a few guys.
I know you can charge LiPo's in parallel, and although I haven't seen it, would it be wise to run LiPo's in parallel in an RC? Makes since to to me since it'll keep high loads off the batteries and keep them balanced. Correct?
The big question though is how wise would it be to wire the balance plugs between the two packs is parallel as well? To me, it seems like it would prevent one cell from dropping too low since it would start pulling more load off the other pack's cell that it's in parallel with. To me this would wire it identically to how a 4s2p battery would be correct?
