Checking voltage on connected 6 volt batteries

When checking the voltage on linked 6 volt deep cycle batteries is it important where the leads from the voltage tester are contacting the batteries? In other words, can the testing be done on one bat...

To get the paralleled voltage of the two 6s, you need to do the pos of one battery, and the neg of the other.

It's weird. Whether I test one battery on the positive and negative terminal or whether I test the positive terminal of one battery and the negative terminal of the other battery I get the same reading. About 6.5 volts
