Take the # 1 battery and connect the positive cable to the vehicle. Then connect the negative cable on # 1 battery to the positive post on battery # 2. Finally connect the negative post on battery # 2 to ground on the vehicle. You will have 12 volts but only the amperage of #1 battery.

Can you use three 8 volt batteries to make 24 volts?
Yes, if you put them in series.
How many batteries needed in a series circuit?
It depends on the load and desired voltage. The voltage adds as you put batteries in series. Positive to negative, etc.
How do you put 2 batteries in series?
Wire minus - to positive +. Know that this will increase the voltage but the amps will stay the same. Wire two 12 volt batteries together in series and you have 24 volts. Click the link.
Can you use 4 12 volt batteries in a 24 volt system?
Yes, if you wire them as two pairs in series to each other. Two batteries in series will give you 24 volts, and another two in series will give you also 24 volts. put the two 24v groups in parallel and you have 24 volts.
Five 1.5 volt batteries?
They make a 7.5 volt battery when put together
Why would you add batteries in series?
Putting batteries in series will up the voltage of the entire circuit. Certain things need higher voltage, so you put your batteries in series. Putting batteries in parallel will not up the voltage, but will let the current last longer. Watches would be more of an example for that. You want watch batteries to last long.
Is 24 voltage a lot?
It depends on the use it is being put to. It is sufficient for a 24 volt circuit. Too much for a 12 volt circuit and too little for a 240 volt circuit.
Can you charge two 12 volt batteries wired in series without disconnecting them with a 12 volt charger?
No, since in series they are 24 volts so you need to charge each one independently with the 12 volt charger. This may be done disconnected or leave them connected and put the charger on the + - of the same battery.
What is two or more batteries put together?
circuit
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.
Where would you put an ammeter in a circuit?
in a series circuit or it will not work. Put it after the bulb
How are the 12-volt batteries connected to provide the required 24-volt electrical power for the FRS generator?
If you put two 12 V batteries in series you get 24 V. Connect the positive of battery 1 to the negative of battery 2. Then you have 24 V between negative of battery 1 and positive of battery 2.
