[QUOTE="user 26281, post: 511418, member: 26281"] Not a battery expert, I would not connect different chemistry batteries in series. Series, not familar/sure if any multi-bank charger supports charging with different chemistry when connected in series. If not you would have to isolate each battery and charge separately. When discharging, current flows from each battery fairly eavenly (total current is equall to current of lowest capicty ah battery). Since damage occurs to lead acid battery at 50% debt of discharge, you would still have to stop using the battery at 50%, losing the remaining capacity in the lifepo4 battery. Lots of risk, for little or no reward. [/QUOTE]
