The DLS-55 is designed to run off of 120V AC.

The standard U.S. AC outlet voltage is 120VAC rms +-10%
The peak voltage is Vrms x sqrt 2 = Vrms x 1.414.

120Vrms = 170Vpeak
240Vrms = 340Vpeak

Many devices that use AC wall power have a simple bridge rectifier or bridge 
doubler at the input.
The bridge rectifier will peak detect the AC, creating a voltage that is 170DC 
with a lower valley due to ripple. 
DC voltage will pass through the bridge.
Thus you need an ~170VDC source to equal the rectified 120VAC voltage.
202VDC would be too much and most likely blow something

 I am in the process of changing my 156v DC lead-acid eLectric DeLorean to 
lithium. I am using eight Tesla Battery Modules for a total of ~202v DC 
maximum.

Previously I was using an Iota  DLS-55 to keep my auxiliary battery 
charged. It worked great and fit well too.

Is there a way to run the Iota off the new, higher pack voltage?

Thank you,
