Hi Brent

I'm not into electronics but I do know that if you hook two 12 volt batteries in series you will get 24 volts out put. ( not a healthy thing for all your electronics and wiring I would suspect). If they are hook in parallel, you will get 12 volt output and I think you will double the amps (but I not sure on the amp thing). Ask Petek he will know.
