Mixing different volatage batteries
Have 2 new 6v Interstate batteries, if I have enough room for just 1 more, would this work for 12v? if so, where would you connect the load.

Temporarily connected is OK. But for whatever reason the temptation to "leave them connected" becomes quite strong. I would use jumper cables not permenant lugs and cables. The recipe for each class of battery is different, voltage wise.
I remember being lazy 30 years ago and playing Layback Lenny with a mixed bank of gel and calcium/calcium batteries. Swift kick in the butt time. I lost 5 Sonnenschein gel batteries over thar one. Woowee that shivered my timbers.
