i have an extra 24 series marine battery i'm gonna hook up in parallel to an existing 27 series starting battery in the boat... i now have 2 graphs wired to 2 30's for the trolling motor, and am gonna add a powered anchor winch, so i have to do some wiring anyway... my plan is to move all the 12 volt stuff to the starting batt(s)...
here's my question - i should be fine to run the 24 and 27 in parallel to run the ignition and graphs and winch off of them right??? also, does it matter which battery is in what position or which one gets hooked up to for the cranking vs graphs???
i've heard not to run different size batts in series, but i don't think it would matter in parallel... anyone else done this???
thanks...
