The batteries are joined in parallel. I have one wire going from the positive of the first battery and another from the negative of the second battery to an RCA socket on the side of the battery box. To this, I connect a multi-stage charger:

which I leave permanently connected. I replaced the original connection going to the battery box with an RCA plug. This also gives me an additional 12v socket (albeit an RCA socket) if I need one.

I disconnect nothing - all wiring within the box stays in place.
