OK, I'll bite.
Interested to know Jon's take on battery power in the DIY realm. My own application involves power UcD400 modules off of two APS battery packs ($25/ea on surplus market) which have 4 12V7ah batteries in each and a battery charger. Together they provide the +54/0/-54V rails which derates my said UcD400s a bit as they call for 52V-62V iirc on the rails. This is a non-issue as I am using them for active multi-amping so I do not need 400watts into 4Rs they are spec'd to deliver.
I am still using a bank of "smoothing"/bypass caps, so the SLAs only replace the transformer and rectifiers. In my case 4 channels (mids/highs) are off of SLAs, while the woofer amp channels are off of the grid.
I am curious to know your thoughts on battery power.
