Can I run a Kepworth and a TimeUSB battery together in parallel.

[edweather]

Have an opportunity to buy a new Kepworth 25.6V 200Ah Lifepo4 battery for about $900. I currently have a similar TimeUSB battery hooked up to my hand truck AIO inverter. Is it possible to just add this Kepworth to TimeUSB to increase the power? I would just but another TimeUSB, but they don't make that size battery anymore. Thanks

You want to parallel different brand batteries of different ages and same capacity?

Yep.

Click Spoiler and consult line #6 for best practices.

Both 25.6V 200AH? Then I bet so but wait for some others to chime in.

One would be new, and the other about 6 mos old, in parallel, same capacity. Is that a yes? Sorry didn't understand Click Spoiler. Old brain in old body

Cool! I didn't know about the sideways phone thing... Too bad signatures don't show when in portrait mode...
