From the web page:

These batteries are manufactured for Motorcycles, ATVs and Jet-Skis, any
other manner of use voids the warranty.

Some people care about warranties...

Precisely.



I haven't yet seen anybody articulate any significant advantages of

direct parallel connection, let alone why they overwhelm the

disadvantages.

Tom, let me be the first to 'articulate significant advantages of parallel':

These are both Lifepo4 batteries that would be well suited for glider usage.
Note that the higher capacity battery has 8 cells but still 13.2V nominal
voltage. Obviously, inside are two of the first kind batteries connected in
parallel. This has to do with the standard cell (3.3V, 7,000mah) they are
using, makes sense to me.
