| Beg to differ, muskihntr. I'm an electrical engineer, so I guess I can claim to be somewhat knowledgeable.
If your batteries are connected in parallel, the trolling motor will see no more than the 12 volts. The same as if you had one battery. 12.7 volts actually, if the batteries are fully charged. Connected as such, you will see your capacity increase greatly, but the batteries will show nearly equal charge at the end of the day.
The only way you get 24 volts is to connect the batteries in series.
I don't know if mine are AGM's or not. Pretty sure they are lead acid. They are 31's, and they were, and still are, $99 at Gander. They do have great reserve. | |
