 down that they may go too low in voltage which would be "bad".  With three
 batteries and 30V transorbs, I would have plenty of margin.  27V is well
 over the gate "spec" voltage but that does not worry me at all (me and
 Marco will have to talk on that ;-))  >>

Why not just use a seperate PSU for this?Transformer and brige with filter or 
regulator.
