[_paralyzed_]

tempted- you're not understanding what I'm saying. They make parallel packs all the time, that's what the "p" is. i.e. 6s2p A 6s 2p pack has 12 cells, 6 individual banks of two cells in parallel. Each individual bank of two cells is seen and charged as one cell. Since they are in parallel, the voltage, 4.2., stays the same, but the amperage doubles. Two 5000mah cells are now one 10,000mah cell. Two cells in parallel will always self balance like two buckets of water connected by a hose. I am simply taking two 6s batteries and making one 6s2p battery, except all my wiring is on the outside via balance taps instead of inside under the shrink wrap. The benefit will be only having to care for one battery instead of two, and my e-maxx takes two batteries so this will work well for me.
