Re: [Electric Boats] Re: Batteries wired in parallel (and series...)

 

I somewhat disagree.
You are getting 1/3 of your moneys worth, with this arrangement.

Shallow-cycling one big battery has 3-10x the lifetime, and the bigger it is the closer to 10x.

The dangers inherent with series/parallel flooded cell banks are perhaps overstated, yeah. Nevertheless I would point out that it is also quite do-able to simply make two separate series banks. Yes there are disadvantages to this if the batteries are of low capacity relative to peak discharge rate, but there is also the psychological advantage of knowing if one bank got you somewhere, then the other one should get you home. I myself would normally prefer a second bank over paralleling the batteries.
