If two 12-volt batteries are hooked up in series, they should measure about 24 volts. However, if they are hooked up in parallel, the voltage should be about 12 volts (while current increases).
The voltage on the batteries is an estimate from the point of being fully charged...same as with dry-cell batteries.
What else can I help you with?
Can you operate a 12volt devise from 2 12 volt batteries hooked inseries?
NO. Absolutely not, you must hook them in parallel. Two 12 volt batteries hooked in series will give you 24 volts with the same A/H of one of the batteries. Hook them in parallel and you will still have 12 volts and double the A/H of one of the batteries.
Why do 20 12-volt batteries hooked up measure more than 12 volts?
When 20 12-volt batteries are hooked up in series, the result is 240 volts, measured from the farthest ends. When 20 12-volt batteries are hooked up in parallel, the result is 12 volts (while current increases).
How would you connect two 12volt batteries together to get 24volts?
Connect them in Series and you will get 24 volts but the amperage will be the same as 1 battery.
How do you wire 12volt batteries up in series to maintain 12volts?
both Neg to body(ground), Pos to Pos .. keeps 12 volts, higher amperage -=TWiG=-
How many amps in four C batteries in series?
C batteries use 1.5 volts. The number of amps depends on what device it is hooked up to. An average for four C batteries would be about 16 amps.
Will 3 12volt batteries wired in series provide the same results as 6 6volt batteries?
Depends on the amperage of the batteries you are using. Both setups will give you 36 volts, but you will normally have a longer run time with six 6 volt batteries in series than three 12 volt batteries. That is why golf carts use 6 volt instead of 12 volt batteries.
4 12volt batteries to make 24 volts?
2 batteries are wired in series then these 2 are wired in parallel with the other 2 which should also be wired in series. series is positive to negative and or negative to positive. parallel is pos. to pos. and neg. to neg.
How do you measur ampere?
You use an "amp gauge" to measure amps in an actual circuit. It is hooked in series with the load. It can be placed anywhere in the circuit as long as it is hooked in series. Mathematically, you have to know the resistance, or wattage and voltage of a circuit. Volts=amps*resistance or amps=volts/resistance, or resistance=volts/amps. Ohms law!
Why use 12volt lighting rather than 240 volt?
Because 240 volts is dangerous
How much volts used in car batteries?
12 volts
A portable radio that runs on AA batteries needs 33 volts to work properly How many batteries does it use?
22 (1.5 volts each) AA batteries
HOW MANY VOLTS ARE IN THE BATTERIES WE HAVE USED?
The small batteries (dry cells) used for many electronic devices usually have approximately 1.5 volts. Car batteries (which have several cells working in series) usually have around 12 volts. Other batteries may have other voltages.
