It takes eighth batteries. each battery, being AA, A , C,or D have 1.5v per cell. if you put them all in series; neg. - pos., neg - pos., and so on it will take eight D batteries to make 12 volts.

Explain why a 24v system that runs off of 4 batteries which includes a 12v feed- that's powered by two of the batteries are getting no charge from the alternator.. the other two are charged well.?

With the batteries in series, the alternator provides the same current, and therefore the same charge to all the batteries. The alternator can take no account of any current being drawn from the 12V take off point. Part of the charge current is being fed to the 12V load and not to the batteries. Therefore, the 12-24V batteries are being fully charged while the 0-12V batteries are being partially charged. Over a period of time, the difference between the charge levels will become more obvious.

How do you wire four 12 volt batteries to get 36 volts and 48amps?

Four 12V batteries may not be connected end to end to obtain 36 Volts. But four 12V batteries can be connected end to end to provide 48V and push 36 amps. The actual answer to your question suggests that you drop one 12V battery and use three, not four 12V batteries end to end to obtain 36V.
