I am interested in charging a 24 volt battery array (two 12 volt batteries in series) off of a 4 cycle engine 12 volt stator. Would this work?

This unit will definitely provide 24 VDC from a 12 VDC input. I have used several in an application where we needed a 24 VDC supply off of a 12 VDC heavy equipment battery pack. However, charging a battery is typically a more complicated issue - amperage load and not over-charging etc. So you should be good for 24 VDC but I do not know enough in regard to battery charging to say yes or no

You'd need a 12v power source that can provide a decent amount of steady current for that motor - four AAs wouldn't have enough juice to run this. You'd be better off with a small AC adapter similar to your phone charger - just make sure it's a 12v adapter.

If you get the 24 volt charger it'll work fine..I use it on my boat hooked up for 24 volts for my trolling motor.

The spec says "For use with 12 or 24 volt systems " so you can use it with either. Yes and I have it hooked up to the main 12V battery on my boat as well as the 12V battery for the trolling motor. It's a great unit and I've owned 3 over the years.

I believe that is a 3.6V battery, and you will need at least 5V to drive the motors properly. So, connecting two or more of them of them in series should work. I found that a 9-12V source with a speed controller (so the final voltage to the motor is 6-8V) works well.

I have only used it on a car battery so far. I'll post when I try the 24 volt

I used mine on a 4 unit - 6 volt battery bank in my RV. If they make a unit for 12 volt batteries I don't know. Contact the manufacturer

Yes it will work. I'm using two 100 watt panels wired in series to get 24 volts running to the charge controller and then to my 12 volt battery bank. works great. You'll have have less resistance from the panel to the controller in 24 volts as well.

Hi There I run the inverter off of a 27D size 12 volt battery on my boat that is charged from a 120 amp alternator off of the motor.

Yes. I use mine to keep a deep cycle 12V marine battery charged. 12 volts is just a nominal term for the average target output of a battery used in a 12V system. When fully charged, all batteries exceed their rated voltage.

Sorry, but no it cannot unless your 24 volt battery is actually 2 / 12 volt batteries wired in series.

It should work with any 12v starter battery and alternator to charge accessory batteries when the main engine and alternator are running.

Hi msed, that motor should work just fine, the voltage in a 12 volt system varies, so if the motor voltage is rated a little higher it is better. During the charging of a battery the voltage is always higher than the nominal battery voltage of 12 volts by approximently 1.5 .

mine is in a motorhome hooked to the 1 of the 2 coach batteries ,the 2 are hooked together with cables from 1 to the other,the engine battery is separate from these,not sure if this is considered 24V or just 12V,has been used for 2 years like this,havent had a problem........

Yes, but... Needs a 12 volt supply of current. 24 volt vehicles usually have two 12 volt batteries. So you would need to use the aligator clip power supply to isolate to 12 volts.

Absolutely, I would just do the "Big three" alternator positive to battery positive, battery negative to chassis, engine to chassis. This will help your charging system out.

you can only charge 2 12volt batterys. cant charge them wired in series that gives 24 volts. cant charge 3 batteries.
