Best Answer

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.

How do you link 12 volt batteries to get 48 volts?

You must hook them up in series. You will need four 12 volt batteries to do this.


How many batteries can you hook up and still have 12 volts?

You can hook up an infinitive number of 12 volt batteries in a parallel circuit and still have 12 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.


Can you operate a 12volt devise from 2 12 volt batteries hooked inseries?

NO. Absolutely not, you must hook them in parallel. Two 12 volt batteries hooked in series will give you 24 volts with the same A/H of one of the batteries. Hook them in parallel and you will still have 12 volts and double the A/H of one of the batteries.

How do you hook 2 6 volt batteries together and still maintain 6 volts?

Two 6 volt batteries connected together in parallel will still maintain 6 volts but their amperage capacity will be doubled.


How do you convert 2 eight volt batteries to a 12 volt battery?

You can not. Looks like you have the two and eight backwards in the question as you can reconfigure eight 2 volt batteries to produce 12 volts. Think out of the box. Parallel two sets of two batteries in series for a total of four volts. Then add four batteries in series for an additional eight volts. You now have a total of twelve volts.


Can you hook 2-12 volt batteries and keep 12 volt?

Yes, connect them in Parallel. You will still have 12 volts but the amperage will double which is fine.


How to hook a 24 volt trolling motor to 2 12 volt batteries?

You would need to connect the two 12 volt batteries in series. That will give you 24 volts and the amps of one of the batteries. Voltage doubles and amps stay the same.


How do i wire two 12 volt car batteries to make one 24 volt battery?

To get 24 volts from two 12 volt batteries, hook the positive post from one battery to the negative post of the other.


How to wire two 12 volt batteries to equal 12 volts?

You hook them in parallel pos to pos and neg to neg.


How do you hook up 2 12 volt batteries to get 24 volt?

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
