Make a series of more than two batteries by connecting the terminals. Take jumper cables and clamp around the positive terminal of one battery and the negative of the battery next to it. Repeat the connection process until all of the batteries you want to connect in a series are connected by jumper cables.
Connect the positive terminal of the first series battery pair to the positive terminal of the battery pair next to it. Continue until all of the series pairs are connected on the positive side. Connect the positive and negative terminals of the end battery to the application. What Batteries Can I Connect in Series or Parallel?
Connecting batteries in series adds the voltage without changing the amperage or capacity of the battery system. To wire multiple batteries in series, connect the negative terminal (-) of one battery to the positive terminal (+) of another, and do the same to the rest. Take Renogy 12V 200Ah Core Series LiFePO4 Battery as an example.
Use jumper cables to connect the battery series to your application. Use another set of jumper cables to clamp down on the open positive terminal of the battery and the positive terminal of your application. Then clamp the cable on the open negative terminal of the battery and the negative terminal on your application.
To configure batteries with a series connection each battery must have the same voltage and capacity rating, or you can potentially damage the batteries. For example you can connect two 6Volt 10Ah batteries together in series but you can not connect one 6V 10Ah battery with one 12V 10Ah battery.
Batteries connected in series must have the same voltage and capacity ratings. Connect in parallel - Connecting two or more batteries together in parallel will increase the overall capacity. For example, if you connect two 12V 90Ah batteries in parallel, you will have a battery voltage of 12V and a capacity of 180Ah.

Building a battery bank using amp hours batteries
To do so in SERIES (series only) – the two battery voltages will add together to provide a combined voltage of 18 volts, make sure both batteries are rated with the same ampere hour level (AH). I however do not recommend this if the batteries have different current output, because it will cause inefficiencies.
