[QUOTE="MidTennFisher, post: 5724558, member: 11842"] If you had your two 12 VDC batteries in series to make 24 VDC, then added a 12 VDC battery in parallel with that group of two, you would no longer have 24 VDC. The larger voltage batteries would discharge onto the lower voltage battery until they had equal voltage. This is not recommended to do at all. Your options are to either get 2 more of the 12 VDC batteries, wire them in series to get 24 VDC and wire that group in parallel with the existing group. This still gives you 24 VDC but increases your amp hours, or just use 2 24 VDC batteries wired in parallel. That would also increase your amp hours. [/QUOTE]
