Two in parallel is much better.
I learned that from a site member. Hopefully he responds and can explain it. Something about two batteries halves the amp draw to each one which greatly increases run time.
Thanks. Hopefully the guy sees this and explains. Yes, running them parallel means each pushes half the current as if being used solo, but that doesn't explain why you'd get more run time than by running one down, and then the other.

Also you're putting less strain on each battery, ultimately increasing their life
Does a battery have a longer overall life if drained [and charged] slowly? That would make it worth it. |
