Forgive me if this has already been asked and my Search skills just weren't able to locate it.
I have two 100AH LiFePO4 batteries, connected in series for 24v. To do this, I have a 15" length of fairly heavy wire (6 or 8 AWG) running from the positive terminal on one battery to the negative terminal on the other. I have several planned use cases for these batteries and have built them in durable cases, with handles, so they are very easy to move around. I want to place some kind of connector, perhaps an XT90, in that cable run, so that I can leave the leads bolted to the terminals, but disconnect the cable and move each battery independently.
So, I want to cut the single wire, place QD (XT90?) connectors on each end of it, and be able to quickly move the batteries around. My questions are as follows:
1) How much current is flowing between these batteries on the cable that connects them in series?
2) Is the XD90 capable of handling the current between batteries, PRESUMING I DON'T RECONNECT THEM when the SOC is significantly different?
