Yup, hook them up in series, that's it. Positive battery terminal to positive lead on one panel, then the negative lead from that panel connects to the positive lead of another. Finaly, the final negative lead connects to the battery negative terminal. Very easy. This will double your voltage, but leave your amperage the same. Now, if you have 4 panels and want to keep it all at 24v, just connect them in parralel. The positive and negative leads from 2 panels go together, and then the remaining leads connect to the battery with the pos and beg leads from the last two.
