Hooking up trickle charger to golf cart batteries
how should I hook up a trickle charger to two golf cart batteries hooked up for 12 volts in my RV during storage? Positive to Negative on opposite batteries?

Ok when you have two six volt golf cart batteries in series what you have is one 12 volt battery.. Effectively that is.
So this is how you hook up a battery Tender/minder (NOT a Trickle Charger)
Black lead -{bat}+jumper-{ery}+ red lead
and it is really that simple
Now when you have other questions like
Can I replace one
Can they be "Different"
Etc.. Remember they are not two six volt batteries but ONE 12 VOLT (Size 4D or 8D) and that answers your question.. Treat them as a single battery.
