How to hook up 6 8v batteries in searise
<><><>
Batteries connected in series have the negative (-) of one connected to the positive (+) of the next, until all 6 batteries are connected.
in series
You must hook them up in series. You will need four 12 volt batteries to do this.
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.
Hook then up in Series. Positive to negative. You then have 24 volts but the same amperage of one individual battery.that will short out other battery
Use a series parallel configuration. Two batteries in series to get the 12 volts. Three parallel banks of two batteries to get an increase of amp hours.
Connect 2 of the 6 volt batteries in parallel and then connect the other 2 in parallel. Now connect those 2 pair in series to each other. You will now have a total of 12 volts with four 6 volt batteries connected in parallel/series. Click the link.
You can hook up an infinitive number of 12 volt batteries in a parallel circuit and still have 12 volts.
Separate the 2 12 volt batteries and charge them individually.
Not an answerable question Missing type of batteries, and application.
Yes, If they hooked-up in series, not parallel.
The formula you are looking for is Vt = V1 + V2.
You can connect batteries with different voltages in series (a 6 volt and a 12 volt would give you 18 volts), but never in parallel (difference of potential will create an arc, batteries could blow up).
