using lifepo4 with lipo

[csjones10d]

hi simple question can I run a lifepo4 48v 20 battery with a lipo 22 v 16 ah battery to boost power in series .

 

[wesnewell]

To increase voltage, yes, but the max amp draw will still be limited to the weaker of the two batteries.

Yes in series. Like he said, the weakest pack will be the amps limiter.

In addition, your capacity will be that of the smallest pack, the 16 ah lipo. So be careful not to over discharge that section of your pack.
