There are some issues with using multiple batteries in parallel. Differences arise over time ( due to slight mismatches in internal resistance. Replacing damaged batteries with new and Internal resistance differences can create further issues.

The optimum is a  single battery where charge and discharge affect all components equally.

However redundancy may be more usefull to you. In that case keep the paralleled batteries to as low a number as practical

Thanks Eric.

I guess five batteries would require five times the maintenance and maybe one failed battery is only a one fifth a loss in capacity.

good point about choosing batteries that fit the charge regulation system.

Thanks
