So in short, it's possible, but not something that really can be efficiently or safely accomplished at this time. We discontinued funding for this project many years ago as it appeared to be more complicated than we wished to pursue.
thank you for your info i can do without an emergency shutdown and could piggy back a charger i dont need a constant battery level either cuz i carry my key in my pocket anyway i believe a lot of people would buy these non lithiums especially if they didnt look like lithiums and didnt have any onboard hopefully they could be etched-marked and have some documenting paperwork =laser etching maybe?
