The capacitor bank will be charged to 16V or a little less.

Whatever battery I use can be of any voltage and chemistry I want. Say a whole bunch of 18650 cells in 2 series configuration(less balancing issuses). That would make 8.4V and i can boost it to 16V. Or a lead acid which can also be boosted to 16v or whatever voltage I want.

With multiple converters i can have different The current does not travel back to the batteries. That will be the job of another circuit/converter/relay.


The idea is to replace all the power used in the car with 1-2 kWh of batteries.

Its basically a modified version of Luno’s setup, but I am trying to use all the capacity of the battery (without voltage drop and without using the alternator.

I can slowly increase the battery size untill i no longer use the alternator at all.
