That’s true, Francoise, each battery has ½ the AH capacity at 12v that is stated for 6v. But there are two of them to produce 12v. So the calculation is Watts x ½ x 2. Rick Brass Washington, NC From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of Jean-Francois J Riva

Right, I should have added compared to the capacity of a 12v parallel bank. Unlike connecting 2 X 12 volt 225 amp batteries in parallel where you'd get 500 amps (For the bank) at 12 volts, your 6 volt serial bank (also made-up of 225 amp batteries) provides 225 amps or half the capacity of a

Just a quick comment on capacity: Don't forget that when the 6v batteries are connected in series to get 12v you get 1/2 the stated Amp capacity as shown on the batteries specs.. The amount of watts they produce is fixed and since the formula is Volts X Amps = Watts.. If you double the v
