Thanks C, I appreciate you taking another go at this.

The charging system is in parallel with the series wired batteries. Voltage is constant in a parallel circuit. How can one leg of a parallel circuit ever exceed the supply voltage. Lets assume for sake of math the charging system charges @ 24 volts, it would be impossible for the two series...

Two 12V batteries connected in series yeilds 24V. As we all know and have experienced in our Deuces. Now lets say you tap off one of these batteries to run a 12V load. In simple terms lets say the load on the one battery used to power the 12V load is now really reading 10.5 volts because you...

Hold one for me, how much... maybe I should have asked that the other way around lol

You can go off the center tap for a 12v load, watch your polarities. Low draw only for the very reason stated above. The correct way to do this is allow both batteries in series to equal out the current draw as stated. Voltage dividers / reducers are the correct way to go. Buy one or make one...
