reminds me of that plan for cars, which sounds like an april fool so hope wasnt.

plan was to up car batteries, or chain them to be able to supply 42v yep 42v funny
number well 3.5 x 12v anyway being enough to convert pas and other power uses
to electric power, maybe in an electric car or hybrid to reduce belt driven drain on
an engine.
