Ah, so the issue is that you only have one battery on the board at one time, and the charging port is on the board. So you can't charge one while you're riding?

The best solution (in my opinion) is to get a new enclosure that can hold both batteries, and then wire them up in parallel with an xt60 y-connector and the jst y-connector linked above. Swapping batteries on the meepo involves too many screws and too much fuss to sound super practical for me. Apparently this enclosure can hold two (or even three) of those batteries comfortably- https://psychotiller.com/product/the-durban

With that said, soldering those parts above would definitely work. I'd use solder seals personally, they're the easiest way to permanently bond (and insulate) wires together

It's a low-temp solder+ thick shrinkwrap + adhesive all in one. Good stuff for pretty much any electronics use (if you didn't know of them already).

Putting both batteries on one charger would definitely increase the charging time. Course, you'll also need to charge it less, because bigger batteries. So, there's that.

u/Jreamer said he used the connector I linked above, seems to have no issues with it (that I've heard of).

I think it takes 3 aaa batteries with the kit as ordered
