Running Packs in series or parrallel

[glassdoctor]

LOL... I didn't notice that he said saddle pack... my bad.

A saddle pack could be made in either method (a or b).

I was referring to "c" as a single pack.

Well C would be a single pack (in a sense) because there'd be one connector and one balancer. I read on TrueRC that when assembling multi P packs that you should solder them all in parrallel first then in series, which seems to be the consensus here. I drew up a pic on paint for some visualization, one without balancers and one with. Not the best drawing I know, but you can see what I'm talking about.
