In Reply to: how to hook up 2 batteries in series? posted by jim in n.y. on Thursday, March 02, 2006 at 8:00PM :
Hook them up parallel for 12
Series is 24 volts
For 12 volt parallel set the batteries side by side. Connect positive cable to 1st battery positive post with jumper to battery #2 positive post. Hook ground cable to negative battery #1 with jumper to negative of battery #2.
