Can you tie multiple batteries together to increase the run time?

Bob no. The charger is not large enough. If it was you could. If you buy a larger changer then yes.

No. I tried the same thing. But there is circuitry to prevent overcharging which would damage your batteries that is missing in the circuit.

Yes you can wire as many batteries as you want theoretically. You need to hVe adequate panels to charge your battery though.

In my opinion, no. The body frame is not large enough to hold two batteries. You may be able to customize, but a different body type will be necessary.

Yes, you have to wire the batteries using the Parallel Wiring method. Actually you can wire 10 batteries parallel and maintain 12 volts. If you were wire the two batteries in a series you would have 24 volts.

No problem. It won't bring a dead set of batteries back quick but will keep the two up if they only need maintained. I have it hooked to several now. Hope this helps.

Yes: you can hook up as many 12v batteries as you like. We have many of these with up to 4 batteries connected. IMPORTANT: If using 12v batteries, just be sure you hook them up in parallel, not series!!

No problem at all. Just connect 2 or more 12v batteries in parallel. I use 4 x 12v batteries.

yes but you need to wire the batteries together the proper way, check the internet for 12 volt to 24 volt dc wiring diagrams you will want to maintain 12 volts not 24, this will extend your draw down time on your batteries

Yes, although I would parallel no more than three. Also, if the batteries are of differing ages, it's not a good idea, as they will respond differently to both charging and pulsing, and a defective battery may load a good one. In general, batteries charging in parallel should be isolated from one another by a diode in series with each battery. This will reduce the charging voltage slightly, and thus will extend the recharging time.

Yes. It really doesn't matter with those little batteries. You'll have to solder it in or cut the wires to add a plug. If u add a plug you'll be able to swap in and out. A scorpion smax battery will give you near 15 min of run time.

No very simple. should take less than a half hour if all your batteries are all within 6 ft or so

No,they are just to link 2 batteries for running longer in your r c .as far as I know.

Absolutely, if you wire up the appropriate 12V battery with the current capacity you need for the target runtime. It would be a relatively trivial hack to do if you want to, but is it designed to do so? No.

You can connect as many 12v batteries as you like. You just need to make sure to connect them in parallel, if you connect them in series you will have some serious problems.

I haven't and don't recommend that either. Save yourself the hassle and be on the safe side. It is better to charge each battery separately.

Will inserting additional batteries, I believe it takes up to 8, increase the output or duration?
