What voltage does a 12V inverter use?

So if you use 2, 5, or 10, 12V batteries the voltage would remain at 12V. This is important as your inverter will be designed for a specific input voltage – usually 12V or 24V. For example, if you connect together two 12V 100Ah batteries the voltage remains at 12V but you now have 200Ah of battery capacity.

Can a 12V inverter be connected to a 24v battery?
