Wire two of the 12 volt batteries in series and the third battery in parallel with the other two. As the two batteries wired in series will give you 24 volts but the amps of only one of the batteries, unless you need the extra amperage of that third battery I would just go with two batteries wired in series. But if you want to use three batteries then connect the positive from one battery to the negative of the other battery. This will give you 24 volts. Now just connect the negative of the third battery to the negative of the first battery connected in series with the second battery. Now connect the positive to the second battery to the positive of the third battery. You will now still have 24 volts but twice the amperage of one of the batteries.

How do you wire 3 batteries to get 24 volts?
Connect three 12 volt batteries in series. You will triple the amperage but the volts will remain at 12. Click the link
How do you wire three 12 volt batteries to make 36 volts?
wire it in series
Can you wire 12 volt agm but different amp hour batteries in series?
Yes, but know that when connected in series you will increase the voltage but the amps will stay the same as one battery. If you wire them in parallel you increase the amps but the voltage stays the same. Example: Connect two 12 volt batteries in series and you then have 24 volts with the same amperage as one battery. Connect two 12 volt batteries in parallel and you will have 12 volts but the amperage will double.
Can you wire two 6 volt batteries together maintaining 6 volts but wire a separate plug off the batteries in such a way as to have a single isolated 12 volt plug?
Yes, series the two batteries to produce 12 volts. Tap off of the two end terminals for the 12 volts. Tap off of the series jumper for the 6 volts of one of the batteries. The two 6 volt batteries can not be paralleled in this connection as they will short out.
Will wiring 2 batteries in series hurt your boat?
Depends on the battery size. If your boat is a 12 volt system and you wire two 12 volt batteries in series you then have 24 volts. If the batteries are 6 volt batteries you will be fine. If you have a 12 volt system on your boat and want to use two batteries then wire two 12 volt batteries in parallel. You will still have 12 volts but will have double the amperage available and this will extend the running time of the batteries.
How do you wire 3 12 volt batteries to get 24 volts?
You do not need three 12 volt batteries to get 24 volts, all you need is two batteries. So I assume by using three batteries you want to increase the amperage. Wire two of the batteries in series and then wire the third battery to the second battery in parallel and you will have 24 bolts. Or you can just wire two 12 V batteries in series to get 24 V.
How do you use the voltage multiplier to get 27 volts out of one 9 volts battery?
You can only do that with a transformer. Or you can wire three 9 volt batteries in series to get 27 volts.
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 do you wire 3 batteries together to make 36 volts?
Take 3 twelve volt batteries Run the + of battery #1 to the - of battery #2. Run the + of battery #2 to the - of battery #3. Use the + of battery #3 for your positive feed, and the - of battery #1 for your ground.
How do you charge 6 volt batteries with a 12 volt charger?
If you have two 6 volt batteries you can take a jumper wire and connect the negative post on one battery to the positive post on the other battery then connect the remaining pos and neg posts to the 12 volt battery charger.
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 make a circuit with 3 bulbs 2 switches and and 2 batteries where the 1st switch controls the lighting of all the bulbs and the 2nd switch controls the lighting of the second bulb?
Connect the two batteries for the voltage needed. If they are 12 volt batteries and the lights are 12 volts, connect the batteries in parallel (negative to negative and positive to positive). If they are 12 volt batteries and the lights are 24 volts, connect the batteries in series (negative of one battery to positive of the other). Run a wire from batteries to first switch, then to two of the lights and the other switch (in parallel). From the second switch run a wire to the third light, then connect all three lights back to the battery.
