The devices mentioned in the question can be arragned in many configurations. Without knowing what you are trying to do, this question can not be answered.
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.
you want to wire the batteries in series...connect negative of one battery to positive of the other. You then use the two remaining terminals as youe - and + 12v source
Enough to last two or three days in all of your flashlights. If you have a 12V adapter, you can sometimes recharge rechargeable batteries from a car or truck outlet.
Not in parallel NO - unless each charger is twice the voltage required for a single battery. For example if you had 2 x 12V batteries and placed the in series, you would have a 24V battery. If you had two 12v chargers and put then in PARALLEL with each other, you would then have a 12v charger with double the current handling. Of course if the chargers were 24v ones, then it would work fine. if you have 2 x 12v batteries (for example) and wished to charge them with separate chargers (actually quite a good idea), then each charger would be over each battery. So the batteries would be in series, the chargers would also effectively be in series too. Basically another way of looking at it would be two have a 12v battery with a 12v charger to your left and then on the right another 12v battery with a 12v charger on it. Yes you can connect the two together in series. The only slight caveat is that the chargers must be isolated from each other - and not for example a "dual output charger" which simply has an extra pair of leads but a shared charging system. - 12v + - 12v + ---------+-BATTERY---+----------+--BATTERY--+-------- - | |+ - | | + |=CHARGER=| |=CHARGER=| - <------------------------------- 24 v ----------------------------> +
If the batteries are connected from + (positive) to - (negative) then the batteries are connected in "series". If the batteries are AA (1.5v each), then the resulting voltage of the two connected in series will be 3.0v. If the batteries are connected + to + and - to -, then they are connected in "parallel" and for the same batteries the voltage would be 1.5v, but would last twice as long as one battery by itself. A truck battery system is two 12v batteries connected in series (+ to -) to give the truck a running power of 24v.
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.
multiplies source voltage, two 12v dc batteries in series become a 24v circuit; also multiplies resistence
You will want to use just one charger because once you add the other charger you will be giving 24v to a 12v system and that could cause fuse issues.
Connect the 12V winch to one battery, assuming the 24V system has two batteries, connected in series.
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.
When two identical 3v batteries are connected in series with the negative terminal of one of them in contact with the positive terminal of the other the total voltage of the combination is 6v.
Silver Bomber wiring not difficult. I don't have a "factory" wiring schematic, but the Silver Bomber is not a very complicated electrical device. To wit: Two 12V batteries are controlled by the right handlebar two position "switch" electrically connected to the motor via a circuit board located under the "scooter board" on the right side toward the front. If the circuit board is faulty it may be very difficult to trouble shoot the board without electrical knowledge and testing equipment. Position one on the handlebar switch uses 12V from the battery positioned farthest to the rear of the Silver Bomber and sends 12V through the circuit board to the motor. Position two on the handlebar switch uses both batteries, in series, and sends 24V through the circuit board to the motor. There are two relays mounted on the right side to the rear of the circuit board. The relays are configured to direct the current from the two batteries/controlled by the circuit board. The wires from the circuit board are Red and Yellow +V, Green key circuit, and Black -V. Best way to trace wires is to use Volt/Ohm meter. There are only two wires to the motor Red + and Black -. Use the meter and tag wires and you will have a workable schematic. Good luck,
