I'm a huge fan of Odyssey batteries but I'm wondering if there isn't an unconsidered failure mode that might be induced by running a pair of them in series to achieve 24v.  Could a partial failure of one of them induce a failure in its twin?  Wouldn't monitoring them individually for their respective 12v capacities make a lot of sense?
