Jakster884 Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 Quick question when charging your 6V batteries which I have two and connected as 1 12V. Can I charge them together as 12V Battery or do I have to remove and charge them separately? Any Help would be appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dunefreak Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 You should be able to charge them together as 12V. Just be sure hook up the charger the same way your cables are wired. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandawg Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 As one, the way they are hooked up it acts as one battery! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sanddunesaddict Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 how big is the cable connecting the 2? If its less than 6 gauge charge them separately. Its recommended that you use 4 or even 2 gauge to connect the 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jakster884 Posted November 19, 2013 Author Share Posted November 19, 2013 I am using 1 gage. It's very thick maybe too thick. They are regular battery cable wire ground and positive. Should I reduce them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jakster884 Posted November 23, 2013 Author Share Posted November 23, 2013 Had to charge separate not enough juice to do both at the same time. Kinda sounds like a personal problem but it got the job done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
