Yep, it surely should. Again, I have no reason to think it wouldn’t work, I’ve considered it a lot and not seen it happen often is all

Maybe I should do a build thread on it

I’m pretty sure the packs equal out the voltages. what I wonder is if the current is shared 50/50 or if its a different ratio depending on the cells/number of p-groups… basically could you parallel a small pack, using high mah cell like 50e. or would you run the risk of drawing to much current or even worse, running to much regen current through the cells. since they are only rated for 2.45 amps charge

Another good variable to consider
How’s the ride? I rode that analog btw.
At that low of an angle, do you even get wheelbite? 
(I imagine you get tons in the front though)
Yes, there’s wheel bite. We’re probably gonna shave some of the edges off. Don’t wanna go steeper angle (@rey8801 's hammock plates) nor bottom-mount. I like drop through better.
This is gonna be my guest/test board.

As long as both packs have the same voltage (state of charge) when connected together to prevent a huge inrush between them, then they should behave well and share current between themselves under load. Current is a function of voltage over resistance, so the pack with the higher resistance (the smaller one) will supply less current.
Now, if the packs are drastically different in construction, age, chemistry or in some other way, then there could be issues of uneven current sharing, but as long as both packs have the same voltage when connected, everything should be fine.
In regards to BMS, if one battery’s BMS shuts down, then the full load will immediately be transferred to the other pack, which may or may not be enough to make that BMS shut down as well, resulting in a cascading failure.
TLDR; Packs of different sizes/capacity should never EVER be connected in series, and packs with different state of charge/voltage should never EVER be connected in parallel.

That is a great explanation! Makes good sence! Thank you!

SK8 149kv , 16/36 (kit from TB)…Need to try it at full charge (12s1p) to know how fast could go. Also using Maker-X cheap esc, will see how many amps could handle…Will let you know soon…
