Dual Z-Axis Motor Wiring

I checked the forum and don’t see a definitive answer on what is the best wiring scheme to wire to identical Z-axis stepper motors together. Series or Parallel also both turning the same direction or opposite directions. Any care to explain what the best choice would be?

Hey !

I think if you have two 1A steppers, wiring them in series would give you a 1A stepper, and in parralel would give you a 2A stepper.
But I’m not 100% sure.

Everybody uses parrarel.
