I just bought two six volt car batteries for my car (they are connected
in series to give a 12 volt system). They needed charging and this took
quite some time, having to do it for each battery.

The question is, can I charge them in parallel or series to cut down on
the time/effort ? I did try charging them in series, but got a very low
amp reading (was this because the charger couldn't cope?).


Many thanks,

Andrew
