Wow!!!!!!!!! I really did not expect this to turn into such a long winded post because this is not a science project and a few minutes of run time either way is not going to make that much of a difference. I just figured if I am going to have 2 batteries I just as soon hook them up correctly to get a little extra run time and extend battery life as much as possible.
But since we are on a roll; lets kick the cat out the bag. These batteries are for a 12v (boat) trolling motor I own.
Now we can hear how I should just scrap this perfectly good 12v trolling motor and buy a 24 or even 36 volt motor because the amp draw is so much less on these same thrust motors extending battery run time.
Heck lets take it one step further and talk about how buying the new $2000 (OUCH) Lithium marine deep cycle battery is going to save me money in the long run because they last threw so many recharge cycles. They are expect to last 10+ years and run at full thrust threw the entire charge rather than losing thrust power as the normal battery loses charge.
I left these points out of the original post because I can not see doing either at this time and know how easy it is to post suggestions when it is someone else’s money being spent. True if this motor goes bad I may upgrade to a larger volt motor just for this reason; But I can not see spending this extra cash at this time.
Thanks for the help. I learned a lot and yes that is why I love this site. Many people from many different carrier fields that can answer just about any question you may have.
