i be wondering,
if one connects a charged battery to a third approx charged battery, will the batteries even out their charge.
eg they will end up with about the same amount of charge,,
tanks already

The best analogy Ive been told to use in this case is that of a U tube and water.

Pour water in to one side of the U tube and it will equalise to the same height both sides.

Same with batteries, the higher charged battery effectively charges the low

basicly if u get the voltage of your two batterys add them together and divide by 2 ull have wat they will be at once connected together.
eg 11v battery and 14v battery join them together and youl get 12.5v

Actually Krual if you put a 6V battery in parallel woth a 12V battery you will get 6V out, as the 12V battery will discharge trying to charge the 6V one to 12V.

When you connect supplies in parallel they do not charge/discharge/deliver at the same rate
