Well, my battery powered super maxed out ppa is nearing completion. I'm going to use a 12 cell AAA config, the calculator says 23.75V. Do I need a regulated switcher? Gawd, I hope not... this has been one expensive project!

I was thinking of an open frame 24V switcher, just case it up. But if I can get away with a wallwart....

If you REALLY wanted to go the lazy route, an Elpac could do it, though I will leave it to you to figure out the best one for the job.

I built the exact same configuration for my PPA, and built the STEPS too. It has worked flawlessly for 4 months. I also use the STEPS to power my PIMETA and Millet HB... you should consider building one...
