That's essentially what I'm suggesting by wiring 2 in parallel (under the hood). I've already got the battery adaptors for my Ryobi batteries, so putting 2 in parallel (adding range, not power) is a 5 minute mod and requires no further components.
I prefer Ryobi batteries over DeWalt or Milwaukee because the battery protection circuitry is built into the batteries rather than into the tools (as DeWalt and Milwaukee). That means overcurrent and discharge protection are built into the batteries I'm using rather than needing to engineer those components into the Jeep.
