Hi all,
I have two 12v batteries connected to create 24 V, thats fine. I also have some accessories that only uses 12 V. I dont need to use them all at the same time. I also only need 12 V from one of the batteries (not both), which is why the 12c acc. is connected to the neg of one of the batteries.
So my question is; can I have a simple on/off switch on the cable connecting the two batteries, to simply cut the serial connection to have them give 12 v each?
If yes, then can you suggest a good switch for a boat (corossion free etc)?
Thanks
