The electric conversion chap finally got back to me with a ball-park cost - £35k.
I had almost completely forgotten about my initial inquiry such was the length of time between q and eventual a.
I'm sure the chap is a genius, brilliant at what he does etc etc, but I can't possibly put myself in the situation of being reliant on someone who takes a month to respond - most especially if I'm trying to get hold of him stood next to a dead vehicle on the side of the road.
I love the idea, I do think an electric powered DS would be awesome, but if this chap is the only game in town then this isn't happening.
