I was in a mischievous mood when I saw the question about the 8v battery, and got hold of myself before I said somethin' silly.

But my silly thought made for a question.

Two pieces of electronics that I keep as close as my torque wrenches and my piston ring compressor are my old got-it-at-J.C. Whitney dwell tach, and my switchable 12v/6v charger.

Was thinkin' lately about upgradin' the charger, and see that the selection of mid-range 6/12v chargers is now pretty much down to the small, hand-portable boxes, as in "no heavy duty roll-arounds".

Not sure what it would be, but if 6v chargers were to go away as I fear they might, could you foresee a problem in hooking up two 6v batteries in series and puttin' 'em on a 12v charger? About all I could come up with was I might want to make a short jumper to go between the two with regular terminals, just for a better connectin that clips might make.

Any thoughts?

No issue with that at allOne shorted battery will cause the other to fry, or one open will prevent the other from charging. If they are way differing in capacity, or type they will not do well either. Use a jumper cable from ont to the other. JimN
