Yep - that's why I am asking so many questions. I saw one blow up on a friend years ago in Auto Mechanics at school - been weary about working on them ever since!Words of caution. Always were PPE around batteries. Always connect 12 volt charger to one battery plus+ to plus+ and negative- to negative- be sure to find the + - on each battery before connecting. Keep charger off/unplugged from house electric during connection and disconnection to battery terminals. Be prepared for an explosion with 2 person to call 911 and water to wash acid from your body. Battery is nothing to mess with. Many have exploded. The never dead ones are the worst since they put out so much hydrogen gas when discharging and charging so no sparks. Also. Rarely but has happened. Death from electrocution.
I am thinking about doing the 2 battery minders also. I did see some 24v Solargizers on ePay yesterday for $45 too though - that might be the other option.
