Best Answer

If the charger is a 12 volt DC machine, connect the leads to the two battery terminals that the load is taken from. Take care to note the polarity of the leads to the polarity of the battery terminals. There will be a short jumper cable between the two six volt batteries. The charger leads go on the opposite terminals of the two batteries that the jumper is connected to.

How do you charge two 12V batteries in series?

To charge two 12 volt batteries in series you'd need a 24 volt charger. That's the pat answer. You need to overcome the total voltage of the series batteries (12 V + 12 V = 24 V) to drive electrons "back into" the batteries to restore the charge. It may work better to use a 12 volt charger and just disconnect the link between the batteries and charge them in parallel, but the setup may not support separating the batteries that way. You do have the option of charging them one at a time without disconnecting anything using that 12 volt charger we mentioned. Clip the charger across one battery, charge it up, then repeat with the other battery. The two basic choices are getting an appropriate 24 volt charger or doing a bit of disconnecting and reconnecting so that the batteries can be charged in parallel with a 12 volt charger, which is a much more commonly available and less expensive charger. That's excellent advice from Quirkeyquantummechanic and well said I might add. I'm in Australia and use 2X12 volt batteries to run my 24 volt Motorguide Trolling motor. You can make disconnecting or reconnecting a lot easier when charging your 2x12volt batteries, needed to be run in series to produce 24 volts, by connecting an Anderson plug to suit. Connect the Anderson plug in a handy position into the short lead that goes from the positive post of battery1 - to the negative post of battery 2 - I.E. the lead that enables the batteries to run in series. Then simply add an isolator switch and turn the two batteries off before charging each one singularly with your 12 volt charger. Regards.

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 ----------------------------> +

Where do you put your leads when checking continuity on a series circuit?

When checking continuity in a series circuit, you put your leads in series with the circuit or device being checked. You also make sure the circuit is deenergized and that it is open.
