Statements are not meant to be mean
But you have consistently exhibited, lack of battery logic aka math logic by making statements the exact of opposite of what is true, regarding battery use and charging
12 + 12 is 24
But you only add volts when doing series batteries..not the amps
And you only add amps when you are paralleling batteries ... not the volts
Amps * volts is power, and best expressed as watts
The number watt hours, or total watts of energy available will always be sum of all batteries and can never be greater
24*80 is the same as 12*160...
24*160 is not possible using Only two batteries
I don't anything about the noco charger.. Do you have a link to a webpage
Our some more info we can use to search for info
The we can maybe offer a more informed opinion
I remember something about use ? You said 20 amps at 24v when running..
Well that's 20 amps is in a series circuit flowing thru both batteries
If you have 2 hrs total intermittent run time, that 40 amp hours at 24v , 960 watt hours, 480watt hrs from each battery, aka 40amp hrs at 12v from each battery...Which is 50% of your battery capacity
3 hours of run time and your in serious depletion territory for the batteries that you are using..And they will die an early death regularly doing that
It's the understanding of what is going on that you have to master
Putting back what you have removed needs to be exact and in the most balanced manner possible, if you want to keep those batteries alive and working
