I asked the same question about doing two batteries that way....I don't see why three or four or more wired in parallel would not work on the same principal...just makes one big ole battery. You are still getting 12 volts just a much longer running time.

Yeah, that will work.

That will work. Attach load to + on battery one and - on battery three to get a more even drain on them. Check wiht a meter before you put load on them to make sure you actually have 12 volts.

Charging can be tricky since they are all hooked together.
