Info from Duet -
"Preferably, the driver supply voltage should be at least the sum of these two back emfs, plus a few more volts. If you have two motors in series then the required voltage is doubled." and more at

- It has notes about wiring steppers in series.
- "Avoid motors with rated voltage (or product of rated current and phase resistance) > 4V or inductance > 4mH."
