Depends on the source. If your source is two 12v batteries in series you attach to the terminals of one battery only. Otherwise, you must drop the voltage by adding resistance to the circuit.

How do you get 12 volts off a 24 volt dc system?

One way in achieving this can be getting a 140 watt solar system. The reason behind this is they take both 12 volts and 24 volts.


How much resistance is needed to reduce 24 volt dc to 12 volt dc?

To reduce 24 volts DC to 12 volts DC using a resistor, you can use Ohm's Law (V = IR). The required resistance depends on the load current you are working with. For example, if the load draws 1 ampere, you would need a resistor with a value of 12 ohms (R = V/I = 12V/1A). However, using a resistor for voltage regulation is not efficient and can cause power loss; a DC-DC converter is a better solution for reducing voltage in most applications.
