Indeed, the 60V capability makes them worth attention. Thanks for 
sharing the parts.

Which is super handy for inverting bucks. Making -16 from +24 is too sporty
with a 42-volt abs max.

I agree, at least for my car.  I have 12V and 16V modules; so, the common storage is good at 48V.  It's not too low for power and not too high for balancing problem.
