A group of ten six and twelve volt batteries are wired in a series The Sum of their voltages is eighty-four volts How many of each type of battery are used?

A group of ten (10) batteries composed of 6 Volt and 12 Volt types will have six (6) each, 6 Volt and four (4) each 12 Volt batteries. The contributing voltages will be 6x6 and 12x4 for a total of 84 Volts.


Can you parallel 4 sets of 6 volt batteries to get 12volts at the same time having the same batteries in series for a 48 volt laod?

Paralleling four sets of 6 volt batteries will still give you 6 volts. Two 6 volt batteries in series will give you 12 volts. Parallel these series sets will give you longer endurance at 12 volts. There is no way you will ever get 48 volts out of four 6 volt batteries.


What size bulb for a 4 D cell batteries?

6 Volt


Is a sq 6 volt battery merely filled with AA batteries?

No. 4-AA batteries hooked together is a much smaller package than the 6 volt lantern battery.


Can you jump a 12 volt battery with two 6 volt batteries?

Yes, if the two 6 volt batteries were connected together in series.


How do you hook up 4 6volt batteries to get 12 volt?

Connect two 6 volt batteries in series. Connect the other two 6 volt batteries in series. Now connect those 2 pairs you have together in parallel. You will end up with 12 volts.


Can 6 volt batteries connected in series be jump started with a 12 volt battery?

Two 6 volt batteries in series, yes. In parallel, no.


Can you use three 12 volt batteries for 6 volt batteries in an ezgo golf cart?

No!


Can you use 3 - 12 volt batteries instead of 6 - 6 volt batteries?

Don't know what your intentions are but the 6 - 6 volt batteries would probably deliver more amps. ======================================= -- If the batteries are connected in series, six 6's are exactly equivalent to three 12's. -- If they're operated in parallel, then the terminal voltage of six 6-volt batteries is still just 6 volts. There's no way to connect 12-volt batteries and make them look like 6-volt units in parallel. It's really important to find out exactly how the original 6-volt batteries are connected in the device. 1). They may be all in parallel, giving an output of 6 volts. 2). They may be all in series, giving an output of 36 volts. 3). They may be connected in three parallel branches of two series units each, for an output of 12 volts. 4). They may be connected in two parallel branches of three series units each, for an output of 18 volts. If you know what you're doing, you can replace them with 12-volt units in cases 2). and 3)., but not in cases 1). or 4).


Will 3 12volt batteries wired in series provide the same results as 6 6volt batteries?

Depends on the amperage of the batteries you are using. Both setups will give you 36 volts, but you will normally have a longer run time with six 6 volt batteries in series than three 12 volt batteries. That is why golf carts use 6 volt instead of 12 volt batteries.


Can you use a 12 Volt Charger on 2 6 Volt Batteries?

You cannot use a 12 volt charger to charge 2.6 volt batteries. The 2.6 volt batteries will become hot, very quickly, and explode.


What 12 volt battery is best to replace 6 volt battery bank and retain ample reserve capacity?

If your load runs on 6 volts, you cannot replace it with a 12 volt battery. You will be exceeding the voltage rating of your load and will start a fire.If you want more amps (capacity) then you can wire more 6 volt batteries in parallel with the first.
