no, it will see half the amperage at same wattage


No Jim was correct. The amperage is the same.

It is a series circuit - the amperage is the same throughout.

If you were wiring two batteries in parallel (and getting 12 volts from the
pair), then each battery would deliver 1/2 the amps (approx.)
