If you connect them in series it will result in an 18V battery. If you connect them in parallel you will have a 6V battery with more capacity than one alone.

How do you wire a 36 volt golf cart with 3 12 volt batteries instead of 6 6volt batteries?

A cart that has batteries connected in series with one plus and one minus cables may have three 12V batteries connected with two jumpers, instead of twice as many 6V batteries with five jumpers.


Can you charge 2 6 volt batteries connected in a series as 12 volt?

Connected in series, yes.


Can you jump a 12 volt battery with two 6 volt batteries?

Yes, if the two 6 volt batteries were connected together in series.


If Three 12 volt batteries are connected in parallel what is the effect on the circuit?

There will be no effect on the voltage. That is the effective voltage will be only 12 volt. But there will be increase of current.


Can 6 volt batteries connected in series be jump started with a 12 volt battery?

Two 6 volt batteries in series, yes. In parallel, no.


Can you use three 12 volt batteries for 6 volt batteries in an ezgo golf cart?

No!


Can you run your 36 volt golf cart on 5 batteries?

It depends on the ratings of the batteries and how they are connected.

Can 12 volt batteries with different amps be connected in series?

Yes


Can you use 3 - 12 volt batteries instead of 6 - 6 volt batteries?

Don't know what your intentions are but the 6 - 6 volt batteries would probably deliver more amps. ======================================= -- If the batteries are connected in series, six 6's are exactly equivalent to three 12's. -- If they're operated in parallel, then the terminal voltage of six 6-volt batteries is still just 6 volts. There's no way to connect 12-volt batteries and make them look like 6-volt units in parallel. It's really important to find out exactly how the original 6-volt batteries are connected in the device. 1). They may be all in parallel, giving an output of 6 volts. 2). They may be all in series, giving an output of 36 volts. 3). They may be connected in three parallel branches of two series units each, for an output of 12 volts. 4). They may be connected in two parallel branches of three series units each, for an output of 18 volts. If you know what you're doing, you can replace them with 12-volt units in cases 2). and 3)., but not in cases 1). or 4).


Can I replace three 8 volt batteries with two 12 volt deep cycle marine batteries in golf cart.?

it should work as long as the batteries are connected in series + to - what you would need to check is if the charger for the cart charges 24v or 8v if it is 8v you would need to get a 24v charger for it it would be possible to charge the batteries with a 12v charger but it would need to be hooked to each battery separately


Can you change eight 6 volt batteries for four 12 volts in a golf cart and is it worth it?

That would depend how they are connected. Are all Eight 6 volt batteries connected in series giving a total output voltage of 48V. Or are they connected with 2 sets of 4 batteries in parallel then connected in series to give a 24V output.
