If someone here is really good at PCB / electronics design, I can verbally explain exactly what needs doing, Also, while I personally do prefer an external style UPS( wide input voltage ). There is probably something to be said for a cape that has an power management micro controller, plus lets say an 18650 LiPo battery holder, etc. I really think having hte ability to use 18650 style batteries would be an awesome feature.
