Wiring two batteries together
Hey all, just joined this site.. I am having problems keeping battery life in my travel trailer for more than one day. I have one sears die hard marine battery I have been using for about 2 years so...
Forum Discussion
Wire question: What gauge wire to connect the 2 batteries together?
Also, I was looking at Wal-mart for cables that could be used to connect them, but I didn't see anything that would work. Can you point me in the direction, perhaps on Amazon or Camping World, of a prepackaged cable option to connect them.
Thanks.

This is what is balanced and best for twin twelve volt batteries.
As it often doesn't cost a dime more to do this, I think it is worth the trouble.
If you wish to understand the "why" surf here:
correctly interconnecting multiple twelve volt batteries
Others may say it doesn't matter--but unless there is a compelling reason to not optimize charging and discharging why not do it the best possible way?
