Yah, I'm not sure OrangeBoy is convinced either
Anyway you will increase the demands on your battery if you increase system voltage and reduce your "range". Applying more voltage means your electrical components will draw more current.
If your car works fine without it, and there is a range and cost penalty with it, I'm having a hard time understanding why it is there.
