Can you hook Bateries in Paralell not 1-2-3-4-etc.?
okay hopefully i don’t get flamed for being an idiot, but i’m trying to increase the time i can run my big rig truck accessories (diesel heater etc) without having to re-start the engine, the question is. due to the type of wiring i could get my hands on i’ve hooked up positive to positive and negative to negative, but not in any particular order, batteries 1-4 are fine (1-2-3-4 positive negative lines all in a row) but i think batteries 5 and six are hooked up to the bank positive into 3 and negative into 4 for one and 1 and 2 for the other or something like that…hell it’s hard enough to explain, but is this a problem? they’re all wired together 5 and 6 are just kinda wired in goofy so is that a problem i should look for the wires to fix or is that not a big deal anyway?
well what you have is a parallel connection in you truck which is positive to positive and neg to neg so no matter how many batteries you install you will still have the same twelve volts
the only other way to hook batterys together is called a series connection which is pos to neg and so on which willadd up the voltage of the batteries 2-24 volts 3=36 volts and so on so this will kill everything in the truck unless you had something made specifically for that voltage
also you could rewire some of the things in the truck that you want on to a specific switch so that way the only things coming on would be the things you need
basically what you can do to get more time out of the truck would be to install more batteries but if you have a lot of batteries youll need big alternators to charge them
