In his build thread MetroMPG installed this gauge. With it you can see which batteries are going out before they actually die.

He mentioned the builder had a schematic and parts list, but I didn't see a link to them.

Edit: was reading more in the Forkenswift conversion thread, saw a link to evconvert.com and took a look to see what was there. What a crazy random happenstance: the top blog article is part two of how to build the previously mentioned meter! So here you go:

Part 1

Part 2
