Connect the two extra 12 volt batteries in series to get 24 volts. Then connect this new 24 volt supply in parallel to existing 24 volt battery supply.
well unless you bought the 24 volt unit no one battery will run the unit, according to black and decker this unit is not being made, did you buy it new or at a yard sale?
one way to tell is look on bottom of unit, it will tell you if it is 24 or 12 volt model.
Hi, you're Rectofier has failed if you have A/C voltage and no D/C voltage. This is what converts A/C volts to D/C volts. If you have a diagram or any parts manual, you can locate this part and replace it. You will need to go to a place that repairs these chargers, or where you bought it to order or but a new one. Sincerely, Shastalaker7
I assume you mean convert it to corded, connected to the mains; cordless is electric as well.
It is possible but there are conversion losses as compared to using a 'native' AC corded mower motor.
It also depends on why you want to convert it. If you find the battery unit underpowered, adding a 12v power supply and cord will not solve that, it will just extend the run-time to continuous, assuming the motor does not overheat, as it is probably designed to match the battery run length for on/off cycle times.
You could consider trading, or selling yours and buying a corded mower.
You will need a thing called a "DC to DC Converter". Here's a link to one place that makes them: http://www.powerstream.com/
One model they have is the PST-D24/12-800. It will accept 20-28V input and has an adjustable output from 12.5-15.5V.
I'm hoping that you are not planning on trying to charge 3 batteries with your vehicle alternator. You would not want 2 12V batteries in series anywhere near the vehicle electrical system. They would definitely burn stuff up. You'll also want to be thinking about how to keep the dc converter and your amp(s) cool. Believe me, they will be getting hot and require some serious airflow.
if it is 24v. then you need to connect 2 battery in parallel. since the battery is only 12v.
if one battery is shoing red and the other is sohwing green, that means you are using 12v only, not the 24v.
connetion as follow:
positve of battery 1 to the motor, the negative of battery 1 to postive of battery 2. the negative of battery 2 to the motor.
