There is very little danger of either the way you are doing it as long as you only connect to one battery at a time...the problem is when you get confused and connect to more than one (positive on one battery and negative on another). You can save time, however by connecting them in parallel and charging them all at the same time. Just connect all positive terminals to each other and all negatives to each other and connect the charger to one of the batteries...viola, you kill two stones (or three) with one bird (or something like that) .
