Hi Bob,
Interesting that they would be squeamish about higher voltages when a while back they ran an article suggesting running a 3-500 amp with the interlock defeated and a meter jammed in there to measure the filament voltage. They (quite rightly) took a bit of flak for that one though.
Anyway, congrats on the award!

In the original draft, I had indicated all kinds of ways to use the 300 to 500 VDC from ones home solar system, or the 300 to 500 VDC from their Hybrid or EV or the 330 VDC that is inside every modern electronics system or power supply to power all kinds of things during a power outage. But QST was concerned that publishing anything with voltages over 12 volts was too dangerous.
