Hello All
There appears to me to be two main ways to connect 8 6v batteries to make a 12v bank, or 8 12v to make a 24v bank.
Plan A:* pair each battery with another in series, making 4 pairs, then parallel all the four pairs, or,Plan B Parallel two sets of four batteries, then connect in series the two sets.I don't see why both ways not would work, but is there a preferred*way and why?
Thanks - Bruce
