Yes, two batteries 6 volt batteries wired in series so that they put out 12 volts can be charged with a 12 volt charger.

I spoke with my contact at CTEK about the MULTI US 4.3 Battery Charger # CTEK56353 charging and maintaining two 6 volt batteries in series. She said that since the # CTEK56353 charger is designed to charge 12 volts, you will have no problems charging two 6 volt batters in series.

The main ground and positive terminal of the two batteries that runs to the trailer's wiring would be the pins to use.
