A. No, different batteries are designed for different purposes. Mixing a lithium battery with an alkaline battery will not improve device performance. In fact, it will reduce performance and may even damage your device or cause battery leakage or rupture. As well, do not mix different battery brands within a device.
Yes, you can mix different capacity lithium batteries, whether a normal 12V 100Ah battery or a Lithium server rack battery. You can combine different capacity batteries in parallel. You cannot combine different capacity batteries in series. There are a few points you need to consider when wiring in parallel. Let’s explore these three points.
A. Do not mix old and new batteries. Doing so will reduce overall performance and may cause battery leakage or rupture. We recommend replacing all batteries within a device. Q. Can I mix different battery types? A. No, different batteries are designed for different purposes.
As well, do not mix different battery brands within a device. Doing so will reduce overall performance and may also cause battery leakage or rupture. We recommend using the same type of batteries within a device.
There are ways to mitigate the issues but you should really not mix batteries that aren't built together and at the same time. You should only use "batched" batteries, this is true of all battery cells and it is especially critical and true of a Lithium installation.
You should only use "batched" batteries, this is true of all battery cells and it is especially critical and true of a Lithium installation. Lithium Iron Phosphate surely is known for its safety but they still contain a lot of energy and issues can become very big problems if you aren't careful and thoughtful on the front-end.

But how is this imbalance within a battery effected by adding another Lithium Smart battery (with its own cell balance/imbalance within) to a parallel installation of Lithium Smart batteries. Cell balancing within a battery should be unaffected by what is going on outside of itself, isn''t it? Or do I miss something here? 0 Likes 0 · Stefanie (Victron Energy Staff) ♦♦ Klaus …
