If they're rated for 24V I don't see how that's possible=20 unless they use constant current drivers internally, but they're sending=20 me a sample in due course to verify. So, the 12V > 24V converter can be shelved (for now), and we can get=20 back to the RF links and 12V charging system. There's also talk of a=20 small increase in the budget. Oh the joys of clients!
