Horizon Insider Tech Talk: Series vs Parallel Battery Configurations

In this quick Tech Talk, Kyle discusses and illustrates the difference between series and parallel battery configurations.

Although this video uses Spektrum IC5 connectors, this logic is applicable to many other style connectors (Deans, Star, Tamiya, XT60, XT90, EC3, EC5, IC3, Traxxas, etc.).

Products Featured:
Spektrum IC5 Battery Series Harness with 4"/100mm Wire, 10 AWG: SPMXCA506
Spektrum IC5 Battery Parallel Y-Harness with 6"/150mm Wire, 10 AWG: SPMXCA509

the music is perfect...…… for a funeral home...….

[edwincordero]

Plain and simple explanation. And useful too. Thanks.

[pthrelkeld]

Plain and simple, direct to the point. Thank Gene Simmons for you sir. I keep coming across these loooong drawn out videos with 15 minutes of useless garble and add pushes, to mayyybe get the info you're after. 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫

[jackdaniels]

If the XT60 works with your new plugs you should do a video showing there compatible...

Do I still get telemetry with these spektrum series/parallel harnesses when using my smart lipos? I see no telemetry cable

[ardislamet]

Halo, great video. I have some question, what if i use 2 battrey with different mah but same voltage in paralel mode. Will it work fine? Or any suggest and what? Thanks.

[jaimeramirez]

Simple! One question: On the parallel connector, will it use power from one battery then pull from the other once power is depleted from one? Thanks.

[stevenshepler]

Nice explanation of the subject well done! BUT WHY THE DUMB MUSIC PLAYED OVER THE MATERIAL, STUPID AND DISTRACTING,

[jhbrogeras]

When batteries are in parallel, as the voltage is not the exactly same (and potentially quite different), what will be resulting voltage? Can you mix batteries of different C rate? Thanks!

[anrckindaguy]

just to confirm, series increases speed correct?

[nickwilliams]

I am new to this awsome hobby now what is the deffrence between running parallel and 1 battery my battery is 7.4 1600mah 30c and voltage go's up to 14.8

Good video, horrible music. Music is really NOT necessary here, we want to listen to the guy giving us information, please turn the music off in the next videos! Thanks!

[topgun]

Thanks but get rid of the background music. Kinda annoying when your trying to understand the concept. Ya the music stinks.lol

[raymondblanchard]

kill the loud organ music so we can hear the info!
