Chris, what about the intel motherboards such as the DQ77KB which run with a single 19V DC input?

 

This way you don't have to go through the PICO PSU since the voltage regulators are already built in. I spoke with Vinnie of Red Wine who said that the 19V DC input can be satisfied using two packs at 25.6V. Not sure which solution is better.

 

I was thinking of going the DQ77KB way for more power until you posted the specs for the Zuma, battery power is a must for me.

ah ok, didn't even occur to me to look at that. passive cooling is also a must for me, thanks for pointing that out.
