#TitleUser StoryImportanceNotes
1Protect the supplemental batteryWe need to have active protection for the battery.Must Have

Will probably use a fuse for current and comparators for voltage/temp
Integrated circuit with FET drivers exist and are relatively easy to implement

2Isolation in safe stateBy WSC regulations, none of the conductors exiting the energy storage system can provide more than 50mA.Must Have

We plan on using some relay-based latch with a button to "prime" the battery connection.

3Regulate Battery VoltageThe output voltage of the battery pack should be regulated at 12VMediumMay need buck boost conversion - expensive4Charge the batteryIt would be nice if we could keep the battery charged during normal operation.MediumMay need buck boost conversion if powered by 12V DC-DC - expensive
