I have a camera that I am wanting to build a battery belt solution for. I have 3 14.8v 95wh batteries, link to battery below, and 1 14.8v 195wh battery that I would like to use to make this belt. Each battery would have its own connector, would be charged independently of the others and would be connected in parallel. The camera I want to use them with has a very high draw of about 12v at 120 watts. At 10 amps this would exceed the load of these individual batteries which are about 5 amps.

Is this possible or just a bad idea?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Some battery manfacturers allow up to 4 identical cells in parallel while some don't allow paralleling at all. The cells should be new and should have been through identical processes. The link you post has a link to ask a question about this product. Have you tried that?
