Thats how we did our five, red to red to red to red to red and the same on black but as I learned dont touch the last red the same aluminum plate as the last black.......The more batteries the more possible current draw on a short..... Lots of sparks and small welding action. FUN.

wait not so safe Oh well works great and lasts seemingly forever. Just take the last red and last black (or green in our case) and put them in a quick connect deal for the robot and works just like one super 12V battery that can supply in our case up to 5x more current
