haha, no it's not my idea. Lee Hart on the EV Tech list and an application note both suggested adding a resistor. At first that seemed really impractical, since who makes resistors with that power rating?! The application note suggested adding resistance that has around 0.2v drop at the current you will be running it at. That worked out to 3 feet of 2 gauge cable, so I figured, good enough for government work!
