Connected in serial? That's odd? If you are looking for a simple yes or no answer you are going to be disappointed. There are many factors effecting your question and you have barely scratched the surface with the data you have supplied. There are many approval hoops too. I'd start with regulations for air transport of lithium batteries. Fred Townsend DC to Light

Is it allowed to have the battery installed in the product (the battery pack is located outside the products enclosure and connected in serial with the products AC/DC Power supply) during transportation to worldwide customers? Any input is very greatful! Thanks in advance!
