Anyone know how picky the z50 is about the voltage it's fed?  I've got
some 12V-nominal sealed lead-acid batteries (ex-UPS batteries, some of
which appear still good), and it strikes me as possibly an interesting
hack to use one of those (or mutiple in parallel, though, based on
watt-hours, one of the lead-acid batteries should give me about a day
of run time already...).  Lead-acid is comparatively forgiving about
charging, AIUI.
