Not to take anything away from Scott, but one thing to consider, if you are
in CA, is that Ned's 10v solution is CARB certified--I don't know if any
other vendors are.  If I recall correctly, Ned has not submitted the 20v
chips for CARB approval--he described the process as a PITA he didn't
really want to do again.
