Whenever possible, using a single string of lithium cells is usually the preferred configuration for a lithium ion battery pack as it is the lowest cost and simplest. However, sometimes it may be necessary to use multiple strings of cells. Here are a few reasons that parallel strings may be necessary:
Since lithium cells must be managed on a cell level, parallel lithium strings dramatically increase the complexity and cost of the battery management and introduce many additional points of failure and failure modes not found with a single string.
A "string" is a series connection of either batteries or solar panels to achieve a specific voltage. So, for example, a string of four 6V batteries wired in series makes a 24V battery BANK. You need to wire at least three 30V solar panels in a series STRING to get the voltage high enough to charge a 48V battery.
V (Voltage): The voltage on a lithium battery indicates its nominal operating voltage. For example, a “3.2V” battery has a nominal voltage of 3.2 volts. The voltage determines the potential energy of the battery and affects the compatibility with certain devices. Common voltages for lithium batteries include 3.2V, 3.7V, and 12V.
