Usually the only way to stably put multiple batteries in a system is in series.... unless maybe your charging them on the same charger/leave them parralelled at all times?

Checked the batteries carefully for bad cells, and ran them charging and running as a matched set at all times. This isn't the final wiring, though. I want to add a second main power breaker and run as an "A" battery source and a "B" battery source. The battery access hatch is pretty tight so I'd rather swap sources by opening one breaker and closing the other. Then we can exchange batteries away from the public's view.
