Battery Mixing? - Page 2

Definitely do not want to mix battery technologies. Lithium batteries will "Rest" at a different voltage then a Lead battery. Hooking them together will deplete one and over charge the other. Internal resistances will also differ causing one to charge over the other.... Different technologies require different charging methods as well.. so they can't be charged together.

Thank you. And now we know "the rest of the story"!
