[font "Comic Sans MS"][black][size 3]You'll run a positive and a negative wire, probably 8 gauge minimum, from each 12v battery to the female receptacle. If you hook up the charger with the charging plug connected as I described earlier, it will charge both 12v batteries. You don't need the two bank charger you have though you can probably just keep using it too. [/size][/black][/font]

[font "Comic Sans MS"][black][size 3]It's a pretty good system. I bought a 12 amp smart charger from Walmart for $39 and connected the charging plug to it. I unplug the 24v trolling motor plug, connect the charger with the charging plug and charge back to all my batteries through the trolling motor female plug. Very slick and cheaper than an on-board system considering you have to buy a plug for the trolling motor anyway.[/size][/black][/font]
