I'm not sure that parallel batteries are the best thing, especially if you charge them in parallel. (There was a discussion on this earlier this summer, IIRC.) Being a mechanical, I defer to the electrical guys on that, though.
I wasn't referring to the tether cable when I mentioned spaghetti. Matter of fact, I couldn't tell there was a tether cable on there... this may be due to about 20-30 wires going all over the place.

oh, sorry. the wires are actually tied down, it's just that there are so many of them in such a small area. anyway, thanks, and if you would like a schematic, i may be able to do something like that.
