6v Wiring ????
« on: November 03, 2007, 11:33:28 PM »
I have 3 6v golf car batteries.I understand how to wire 2 of them for a 12v setup,but could anyone tell how to wire 3 of them for 12v? I have an idea,but don't want to do anything stupid.  

                       Thanks,HK

Wiring 3 - 6V batteries for 12V would be a bad idea.  You need to equalize the curent draw on all batteries else one will go bad twice (or more?) as the others.  You should use the two batteries or go get a fourth.

It isn't possible, you need 1 more battery to use all 3.
