There is another advantage when charging Li-Ion batteries in parallel in the CC phase of charging. If the wall adapter and battery charger are capable of supplying more than a 1C charge rate to a single battery pack, the charger can programmed at a higher charge rate, up to 2C, since the charge current will be shared between the two batteries.

The diodes stopping the batteries from shorting. I know diodes have a considerable voltage drop, and for the EV application I would use ideal diodes. By using the diodes, all batteries should drain equally, avoiding the battery pack unbalancing. In the EV, the 12V batteries would be separate modules with their own monitoring. Is this a crazy idea?
Power constraints: Performance requirements for standard HEVs generally focus on the power capabilities of the battery pack, rather than ca-pacity, and therefore battery packs for HEVs typ-ically do not require paralleling of cells. Perfor-mance requirements for EVs and PHEVs, on the other hand, are dominated by capacity needs.
By connecting batteries in parallel, their amp-hour ratings combine, effectively increasing the current capacity without altering the system's voltage. For example, two 12V batteries rated at 100Ah each will yield a system capable of supplying 200Ah at 12V.
The m series battery pack in parallel are named P 1, P 2 …, P m. The n cells and 2 n + 2 MOSFETs in each series battery pack are named B x1, B x2, …, B xn and S x0, S x1, …, S x(2n+1), where x is the serial number of the parallel battery pack (x = 1, 2, …, m). The inductor is named L. Fig. 1.
The diodes stop the batteries from shorting to each other, but they also deliver 36 V to your '12 V' output. If your low voltage drain is very, very small, say less than 1% of the drain on the whole pack, then you could maybe supply it from one battery, and rely on the charger to rebalance the cells when you recharge.
