i need to chg two 12 volt deep cycle batteries. do you hook up leads from this charger to both batteries or to one?

We plugged into a box in the Inverter compartment and the rest is pre-wired. However you would connect to one if the two deep cycles are connected together.

You are going to need sufficient cord length and appropriate connectors for each application. If you are wanting to charge two separate items simultaneously, obviously you will require two separate cables with the appropriate connectors. File that under Common Sense 101. ;-) How many accessory cords and connectors did you receive with the 2 bank Battery Tender? If you received two, you may not need any. If you only received one set and wish to charge two items at the same time, you are going to need another set!

If they are wired in series, you will need to attach the charger to one battery at a time. Red to pos, black to neg as you normally would.You can either cycle through all four batteries, or buy 4 chargers.

Yes, you can hook this up to two or more batteries. Just make sure to hook them up in parallel. + to+, - to-. This is a great starter kit, you can start with just this panel and one battery, then add more as you go. (If you are like me you will want more!) It would take about a day and a half to charge two car batteries when fully drained. My 122 amp hour marine battery will charge in a day. If you want a backup power setup more batteries per panel is better, but if you plan on a high daily usage you will want more panels per battery so it can recharge the batteries during the day.

is this charger a double charger.where you can charge 2 batterys at the same time.for a 6 volt 9.5 amp red battery

Yes - Connect the batteries to the charger in parallel. [The plus (+) from both batteries will land on the load + terminal. The negative (-) from both batteries will land on the output load minus terminal.]This is a very common configuration. You can put as many batteries together as you like in this pattern.Doug Wingfield

if your charger is 48 volt rated then connect to the two leads that leave the battery bank. the one that leaves the last positive terminal is the red connection the3 one that leaves the last negative terminal on the battery bank is the black connection. if it is a 12 volt charger then you have to charge each battery separately

yup, works fine charging both at the same time. Make sure you got one bank to one battery and the other bank to the second battery(in other words, don't mix the two banks from the charger up).

No - this is for the charger only. Each battery runs about the same price. I purchased the charger as my second one - charge two batteries at once now, as it goes pretty slowly.

You will only need one battery tender unit if you use a splitter to both battery banks. Home Depot or Lowe's would be a good place to get what you need, and be able to talk to someone face to face.

If you have a charger that is designed to charge two batteries at a time, then you can charge any two of these batteries. Most chargers will charge at least a minimum of two batteries.

If you are running 2 battery's this will charge both at the same time with 5 amps. If you are running 1 you can hook up both leads and charge it at 10 amps so less charge time. Mainly depends on the recovery time you have between fishing trips.

yes that is correct. If you connect two 12v batteries in series end result will be one battery bank of 24v. When charging batteries - use of a charge controller is highly recommended.

The current version will connect both batteries together when a charger is connected to either battery and providing an output voltage of 13.4 volts or higher. This will allow charging of both batteries with a single output charger.

I just called Deltran (the company that makes these) and they said it is not intended to charge more than one battery because the charging circuit will only detect the charge condition of the first battery it is connected to, and so any other battery connected in parallel may not get fully charged.

Beauty -- place the two batteries in either the left two slots or the right two slots of the charger. If you consider the slots numbered from 1 to 4 beginning with the left-most slot as number 1, then place the batteries in either slots 1 & 2 or in slots 3 & 4. any other combinations will not charge the batteries.

Yes, Connect the positive lead of the solar charger to the positive terminal of one of the batteries and the negative lead to a negative terminal.
