A series connection of [five] cells gives you [five] times the voltage of a single cell.
A parallel connection of [five] cells gives you the same voltage, but [five] times the
battery life, of a single cell.

Do batteries that are arranged in series produce a higher voltage than batteries arranged in parallel?
Batteries in parallel maintain constant voltage across the load rather in a series, so it is better to arrange the batteries in parallel Batteries in series deliver a higher voltage, batteries in parallel have longer life use.
Can you connect batteries in series and parallel?
Yes, series and parallel connection of batteries is possible. When connected in series Voltage increases. In parallel, Current increases but voltage is constant.
You want to take 25ams output you are having 16 Nos of 12V 8Ah batteries do you have to connect batteries in series of parallel connection?
Parallel or Series Connections for BatteriesTo increase current [measured in Amperes], you connect batteries in parallel. To increase voltage, you connect batteries in series.
Can 3 of four batteries be wired up in series and 1 in parallel. Will this setup drain the parallel battery?
No it will impose the voltage of the three series batteries across the terminals of the paralleled battery. Batteries can only be parallel when all of the voltage potentials are near equal.
Will an electromagnet be stronger with 2 batteries wired in series or parallel?
Normally putting the batteries in series would have more effect.
How do you hook up 12 volts lights using 6 6 volt batteries?
Use a series parallel configuration. Two batteries in series to get the 12 volts. Three parallel banks of two batteries to get an increase of amp hours.
Why are the batteries and flashlights often arranged in series and not in parallel?
No two path
Why are the batteries or flashlights often arranged in series and not in parallel?
No two path
Can 6 volt batteries connected in series be jump started with a 12 volt battery?
Two 6 volt batteries in series, yes. In parallel, no.
How do you get 24 volts from 2 batteries not in series?
Two 24 volt batteries in parallel will give you 24 volts. The only other way is two 12 volt batteries in series.
How are circuits connected when you are using more than one battery?
The batteries can be connected in parallel or in series. In parallel, good batteries of the same voltage will have a total voltage across them equal to the voltage across one of them. Those batteries in series will have a total voltage equal to the sum of the voltage of each of the batteries.
If batteries are wired in a series-parallel configuration?
You get more voltage and current capacity.
