I like this idea!

I'd be surprised if nobody in the history of EcoModder has ever done this before (I once thought about doing it with a DC-DC converter powered by 24v).

But the difference today is the availability of cheap used cells and cheap electronics to make it work - almost plug 'n' play.

Planning to try it out?
