Just to clarify, I'm not talking addind additional weight,motors,Tesla coils, etc.

I am asking if taking an "existing" say 400AH battery pack, and dividing it in half. (OK I added 2 large relays)

Would the rest time give the batteries more range the using them in parrallel thereby stressing them less ? ?
