|  Running batteries in parllel
I am kinda a noob at battery and electronics so i just want to confirm what i was thinking. If i was to take 2 small 150mah 7.4v packs and run them parallel as a small saddle pack that would give me a 300mah 7.4v pack correct? Just asking because it works out better for what i am dooing than one large pack but i want the runtime of the 300 mah. Thanks

 If you ran them in series, you would have 14.8 volts @ 150mah. | |

Not to thread jack, but does this also double your C-rating?

one at 150mah 10c would be 1.5a Two at 150mah 10c would be 3a (300mah at 10c. this is what you say is correct) Two at 150mah 10c would be 6a (300mah at 20c. This is what I see as correct) Last edited by fred0000; 10-07-2011 at 08:57 AM. | |

Hello "Two at 150mah 10c would be 300mah at 10c". YES But disconect the 2 packs iff they are not in use for more than a few days.. due to different temperatures and different cells can be discharged the batteries Werner7 |
