Battery Amp Hour
Does the amp hour rating double when two twelve volt batteries are used? I understand that they need to be both new so they don't go down to the lowest setting. thanks

The amp hour is a unit of charge (3600 Coulombs), not energy. The volt amp hour = watt hour is a unit of energy. A 100 amp hour 12 volt battery stores 12x100 = 1200 watt hours or 1.2 kilowatt hours. A 200 amp hour 6 volt battery stores 1.2 kWh as well. About 20 cents worth from the power company.
