Default venom lipo saddle packs

Hi all,

New to this forum have been into R/C for quite a few years, garage holds a Savage ssx with heaps of hop ups/HPI Wheely King converted into a Crawler,& lastly a Losi 1/10 Comp Crawler.

In the Losi i have a set of 4200mah 7.4v lipo batts.My Question is-
These two batts are wired in "series" which means double the volts and the mah stays the same.(presently charging the combind pacs to 7.4v). Can i wire it so they are "parallel" which means double the mah and the volts stay the same. ? Are these batts 7.4v each or are they 3.7v each ? (they have 7.4v on each batt).
I have specs & pics below

Specifications:
ROAR Approved
Battery Type: Lithium Polymer (LiPO)
Configuration: 2s2p
Weight: 9.17 oz.
