I have some assorted dumb questions that don't really deserve their own threads, so I thought I would ask them here and invite others to ask their simple dumb questions as well. I'll probably ask even more questions as I think of them. Thank you for your patience.
1. Does it matter if the wires between cells in a 8s or 16s battery are different lengths? Will it cause problems? I ask because I am going to make a battery which will have to be transported by hand up a ladder; I won't be able to move a fully assembled 16s battery this way due to weight. So my options are either to completely assemble it in place or possibly make 4 smaller 4-cell sections that can be put into place and then connected in series. This would wind up with the 4s sections having slightly longer wires connecting one another than the wires used between the cells inside each section.
