I now have 2 12v batteries in parallel for my Ultrex and a 12v for cranking these are hooked into a 3 bank trickle charger which might be close in time to replace. It's time to replace the 2 for my Ultrex. If I go to 24 v lithium I'll also need a 24v charger right ? I have couple 12v lithium chargers for lithium I use for electronics so just thinking about getting 2 12v lithiums and run them in parallel so I don't have to buy 24v charger. Am I anywhere close in my reasoning

Update my batteries are in series to get to 24v
Buy Noco 3 bank 12v charger. Stay with 3 12v batteries. The Noco is capable of charging 3 different kinds of batteries at one time. Just program which bank for a certain kind of battery. Noco is dumby proof. Won't over charge. I have 6 batteries on my boat with two Noco 3 bank chargers.
Main lead battery, lead battery for kicker motor and lithium for all my electronics on one charger.
Three lithium batteries for 36 volt trolling motor on other charger.

Reason I'm saying stay with 12v batteries is if your on a trip and need a battery it will be easy to find a 12v lead or lithium battery. Harder to find a 24v or 36v battery.
