Yeah, higher voltage gives you the same power @ a lower amp draw. Seeing as you have so many batteries I'd go with as high of voltage as you can. I honestly don't know how many amps you can draw out of those batteries, so you're going to need that high voltage to get some usable power (or run some of those batteries in parallel so you can pull more amps).
