For car/truck batteries, the cells would have to be exactly the same voltage. Otherwise current would flow from the higher voltage battery to the other. This "charging" current would only be limited by the gauge of the wire and the battery capacity.

CHC, you say there is a wire between them. Do you mean in a series chain? Is it a 24/36v starting system?
