Can you charge batteries in series with 2 separate chargers in parallel?

Not in parallel NO - unless each charger is twice the voltage required for a single battery. For example if you had 2 x 12V batteries and placed the in series, you would have a 24V battery. If you had two 12v chargers and put then in PARALLEL with each other, you would then have a 12v charger with double the current handling. Of course if the chargers were 24v ones, then it would work fine. if you have 2 x 12v batteries (for example) and wished to charge them with separate chargers (actually quite a good idea), then each charger would be over each battery. So the batteries would be in series, the chargers would also effectively be in series too. Basically another way of looking at it would be two have a 12v battery with a 12v charger to your left and then on the right another 12v battery with a 12v charger on it. Yes you can connect the two together in series. The only slight caveat is that the chargers must be isolated from each other - and not for example a "dual output charger" which simply has an extra pair of leads but a shared charging system. - 12v + - 12v + ---------+-BATTERY---+----------+--BATTERY--+-------- - | |+ - | | + |=CHARGER=| |=CHARGER=| - <------------------------------- 24 v ----------------------------> +

Can I replace three 8 volt batteries with two 12 volt deep cycle marine batteries in golf cart.?

it should work as long as the batteries are connected in series + to - what you would need to check is if the charger for the cart charges 24v or 8v if it is 8v you would need to get a 24v charger for it it would be possible to charge the batteries with a 12v charger but it would need to be hooked to each battery separately


How long does it take charge a 12v motorcycle battery with a 12v car charger?

Depends on the amperage of the charger. A 10 amp charger will charge it in about 1 hour.


Can you charge a 12 volt battery with a 24 volt charger?

I can if I charge 2 of them at a time. Most 24 volt chargers also have a 12 volt setting. What is hard to find is a 32 volt charger. We can charge a 12V battery with 24V charger, by connecting two 12V batteries in series i. e. the negative terminal of the first battery is connected to the positive terminal of the second, now the charger positive terminal is connected to the first battery positive terminal and the negative terminal of the charger is connected to the negative terminal of the second battery.

Can you charge two 6v batteries in a series with a 12v charger and which posts do you connect the charger to?

Yes you can. Connect the chargers positive lead to the positive of one battery, then the negative side of that battery to the positive side of the other battery, then connect the negative lead of the charger to the negative of the second battery. Double check all your connections and turn on the charger.

No


How do you charge two batteries same time?

Use a special charger, such as an RV or boat charger, that has multiple outputs (best). Connect the two batteries in series, and use a 24V charger (ok, if the two batts are exactly the same). Connect the two batteries in parallel and use a standard 12V charger ( worst choice, one battery tends to hog the current, and they receive unequal charges). See the links for a dual-output charger I Googled.
