Yes, but know that when connected in series you will increase the voltage but the amps will stay the same as one battery. If you wire them in parallel you increase the amps but the voltage stays the same. Example: Connect two 12 volt batteries in series and you then have 24 volts with the same amperage as one battery. Connect two 12 volt batteries in parallel and you will have 12 volts but the amperage will double.
No. If you connect two 12 volt batteries in series(positive to negative) to make 24 volts, you will have 100 amp hours. If you connect two 12 volt batteries in parallel(pos to pos, neg to neg) you will stay at 12 volts but have 200 amp hours
The formula you are looking for is Vt = V1 + V2.
A group of ten (10) batteries composed of 6 Volt and 12 Volt types will have six (6) each, 6 Volt and four (4) each 12 Volt batteries. The contributing voltages will be 6x6 and 12x4 for a total of 84 Volts.
In general, it's a bad idea. * If you do, the available A/H will be that of the smallest battery. * If you try to charge them while they are in series with a 12V charger, you will undercharge the big one while overcharging the little one. * Since different sized batteries have different internal resistance, the smaller battery will work much harder to supply a given load, and it will fail prematurely. If you need to get 12V temporarily to test something or to try out a radio or whatever, go for it. Just dont plan to use such an arrangement long-term.
Yes, series the two batteries to produce 12 volts. Tap off of the two end terminals for the 12 volts. Tap off of the series jumper for the 6 volts of one of the batteries. The two 6 volt batteries can not be paralleled in this connection as they will short out.
Yes
You can connect batteries with different voltages in series (a 6 volt and a 12 volt would give you 18 volts), but never in parallel (difference of potential will create an arc, batteries could blow up).
Two 6 volt batteries in series, yes. In parallel, no.
No. If you connect two 12 volt batteries in series(positive to negative) to make 24 volts, you will have 100 amp hours. If you connect two 12 volt batteries in parallel(pos to pos, neg to neg) you will stay at 12 volts but have 200 amp hours
Yes, if the two 6 volt batteries were connected together in series.
Two 24 volt batteries in parallel will give you 24 volts. The only other way is two 12 volt batteries in series.
Connected in series, yes.
you only need two 12 volt batteries to make 24 volt. connect them in series
By connecting two 6 volt auto batteries in series. Or by connecting eight 1.5 volt batteries in series.
Two six volt batteries in series makes 12 volts so switch the charger to the 12 volt position.
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.
use two 12 volt batteries in series.
