Better than blowing up your batteries when you try this scheme!
Then you better start calling every company that have being doing this for a 100 years, but then I remember we are talking about charging, my three bank charger is hooked to each battery to charge each separately, that is the best way to charge and maintain your batteries as it give each battery just what it needs, all while being connected parallel to a series circuit and haven't blew up a battery in my life time yet.

Having a battery charger that has completely isolated outputs hooked up to a set of batteries that are currently wired in series is totally different than what is in that picture above.

You do agree that the picture posted by Bamby shows batteries wired in both series and in parallel and that the batteries are all a dead short right?

You can not have batteries wired up to each other in a series configuration and a parallel configuration at the exact same time.

I am an electrical engineer in case that makes a difference. :biggrin2

this makes the most sense to me as a laymen. I understand how the 3 bank charger's ability to be hooked up to three batteries in ANY configuration can confuse what is actually going on in the circuits,,,
please enjoy the discussion and keep it as a learning thing and not turn ugly on us !!! Not pointing fingers ,,,just sayin :nutkick

That's good. It should make sense.
