Newbie here and I searched this question and can’t seem to find an answer. Sorry if it’s been posted or is simple knowledge.
I have 16, 12v 200ah gel batteries wired in 4 quadrants to essentially give me 4x 48v 200ah batteries. Or 800ah of 48v batteries.
In the battery manual it states max charge amperage is 50amps… but that’s for the single 12v 200ah battery. My question is if that changes being in series to make 48V and 800ah total, or if my battery banks max charge amperage is 50amps because that’s all a single battery is recommended to handle.
Thanks!
