If you connect positive to positive and negative to negative you will have a 9V battery with twice the current capacity in milliampere hrs than a single batteries. The load then goes between positive and negative paralleled terminals.
If you connect one negative of one battery to one positive of the other battery and put the load between the remaining negative and positive terminals you have created an 18 V battery with the same milliampere hr rating as a single battery.
If you connect one negative to positive of other battery and the negative of that battery to the positive of the first battery then both batteries with quickly drain and get hot in the process. Contrary to folklore or urban lefends, they do not explode.

Can you join two 6 volt batteries together to make a 12 volt one?
join two 6 vault battaries two make 12 vaults
Can attaching 3 double a batteries together shock you so that you can feel it?
Depends on the volts and amps it's pushing. For instance. Connect three 12 volt car batteries in series and you will feel it. Three double A's however, no.
Which will last longer eight 6 volt batteries or four 12 volt batteries?
That would depend on the capacity of the battery, usually measured in Amp-Hours (Ah). 4 12 volt batteries with a capacity of 10 Ah would last the same amount of time that 8 6 volt batteries of 10 Ah would last. There are however other factors that could contribute to the length of time they last, mostly to do with the construction of the cell and how much current it is designed to pass. 6 volt batteries are typically smaller in stature and as a result may not be able to produce large amounts of current as a 12 volt battery of the same current rating without getting hot...and heat = lost energy, unless it involves a toaster.
What happens to your air conditioner if you lose one 110 volt phase?
If it is a 240 volt conditioner it will stop. If it is a 120 volt conditioner it will stop if it is on the leg that has been lost.
How do you increase Speed on a Yamaha 48 volt golf cart?
You can increase the speed of an Yamaha 48 volt golf cart by installing a larger motor or more powerful batteries. This will produce more power to the wheels and more speed.
Can you jump a 12 volt battery with two 6 volt batteries?
Yes, if the two 6 volt batteries were connected together in series.
Five 1.5 volt batteries?
They make a 7.5 volt battery when put together
How do you hook 2 6 volt batteries together and still maintain 6 volts?
Two 6 volt batteries connected together in parallel will still maintain 6 volts but their amperage capacity will be doubled.
Is a sq 6 volt battery merely filled with AA batteries?
No. 4-AA batteries hooked together is a much smaller package than the 6 volt lantern battery.
How do you hook up 4 6volt batteries to get 12 volt?
Connect two 6 volt batteries in series. Connect the other two 6 volt batteries in series. Now connect those 2 pairs you have together in parallel. You will end up with 12 volts.
How do you wire four 12 volt leisure batteries together to run 12 volt for my inverter?
To maintain the 12 volts using four batteries they have to be wired in parallel connections. This means that all of the positive posts are connected together and all of the negative posts are connected together. The total sum of all of the batteries will equal 12 volts.
How do you connect to 12 volt batteries together in a series to get 24 volts?
Click the link for a diagram.
Can you use a 12 Volt Charger on 2 6 Volt Batteries?
You cannot use a 12 volt charger to charge 2.6 volt batteries. The 2.6 volt batteries will become hot, very quickly, and explode.
When hooking 2 12 volt batteries together which poles do you use to connect the 2 batteries to what ever you are using to kept a 12 volt system?
You need to keep the batteries in parallel. The positive poles of the battery are to be connected together. Also the negative poles need to be connected together. This will maintain the voltage at 12 volts and also give you double the endurance when discharging the batteries when connected to a load.
Can 4 8 volt batteries replace 6 6 volt batteries?
yes
How do I connect a twelve volt car battery to two six volt batteries connected in a series?
connect the 2 six-volt batteries together one terminal each positive to negitive, this will make a 12-volt combination, then you can connect the jumper cables, one side to the 12-volt battery and one side to the two 6-volt terminals, + & -
Can you use three 12 volt batteries for 6 volt batteries in an ezgo golf cart?
No!
