Only if all at the same/similiar charge state otherwise you might melt<br>
wires if one is totally flat and one is full. They are just paralleled<br>
(AIUI). We need to be careful about this. I think the idea is that all<br>
3 (there is one inside the cavelink) are plugged in in parallel. But<br>
you _could_ choose to run 2 until flat, then swap to the 3rd one<br>
(internally fitted) so you had a spare. This makes more sense for the<br>
underground stn (havng a spare batt). I think we should probably just<br>
leave all 3 plugged in together and use 3 in parallel, then people<br>
can't fuck it up. I'd balance them by charging all to same state with<br>
accucell6 (no balance connector - boo), then charge the 3 as a set.<br></blockquote></div></div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">We cannot do this easily here, so have left it for this expo as it is and it can be changed when not on expo</div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Andrew</div><div dir="auto"><div class="gmail_quote"><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><br><br></blockquote></div></div></div>
