I found a Ryobi 24 V battery powered "mulching" lawn mower in the trash
today, a new battery will probably cost a fortune, but I think the motor
might make a good generator, maybe 500 watts? Anyone know if i can just
discard the circuitry and get straight DC from the two terminals and charge
2, 12V batteries in series?

Spin it up with a drill and see what you get. I'd expect this would
work...
