As long as the output voltage of the battery bank is 12 volt the Bright Way 12V, 5-Amp-Hour Switch Mode Charger for Hydraulic Lift Trailers # BRW77FR is going to work well. Parallel means that the voltage is the same so it would need to be two 12 volt batteries whereas in series would require two 6 volt batteries.
