I was having this conversation with my brother the other day. I have my 24volt batteries set up on my trolling motor. Then on one of the batteries I have my automatic bilge pump plus my lights ran as a 12volt system. He told me it wasn't possible but I have run the lights, bilge, and trolling motor all at the same time with no problems but all connections have circut breakers so nothing should fry. My answer was that I have a onboard charger hooked up to the batteries individually so why couldn't I have other 12volt items hooked to it as well. I'm not saying my way is right as I am also no electrican and will change that around if it is not supposed to go that way. However I would not tie the big motor to those batteries.
