Greetings,
I am involved with a marine application where client needs to run 3kW for 2 hours before recharge. I am considering a 4x4 setup of size31 agm batteries. I have heard some say not to place more than 2 strings of batteries in parallel. I would like to know a little more about this. I would like to hear what others have to say regarding this. Either actual experience or internet lore. If you can point to a sticky or manufacturers application note then that might be helpful. I'm not sure but I expect the problem may be related to charging. I have designed large arrays of LiPo using hundreds of cells for commercial airlines which have worked out well so I am curious as to limitations of Lead Acid.
thanks
