Combo Optima and Floods make 84v pack.
Has anybody run together Optima's and floods, I was thinking of adding
7 Optima's across my 14 6 volt floods. This EV rabbit is good for 20
mile round trip with lots of hills. Since the car only has 14 floods now
I could add 7 Optima's. All new Batteries. With new Auburn 620 amp
controller . Just thinking I could get the best of both packs. Better
acceleration and keep or improve range decreased discharging rates
prevent early battery deaths. Or would the added weight cancel that out
? especially since I am in a Hilly area. Would the packs work
efficiently together ? Should they be buddy pairs i.e. one 12v Optima
across 2 6v floods or to separate series packs paralleled ? Would it
require two separate charging systems one for each pack. Or is this a
bad idea, waste of time energy and money.
Thanks in advance, Danny Ames.
