Yes it would. 37.6 volts might work, but in cold weather that voltage will be much higher. I would use a 36-72 volt converter in such a case. Better yet, a 20-72 volt converter.
(The real range you want is from about 28 to 40 volts.)
You'd need a lot of diodes and they would get very hot if you used them to drop much voltage at moderate currents.
Figure out your max voltage, then get a large screw terminal electrolytic at a voltage higher than your max.
(The real range you want is from about 28 to 40 volts.)
If so, would a diode in series do the trick?
How would I go about shopping for a capacitor bank? I do understand what it would be used for, but searching on the term at digikey doesn't produce what I (think I) am looking for; and a quick Google shows yooge ones like you might see at a sub-station...
