In theory would it be possible to run a PEV using a single large LFP cell with a boost converter? I'm talking all the way up to powerful PEVs like high-end escooters.
For example using a single 1000 ah LFP cell (3200 wh). Let's say you used a fairly reasonable 2c discharge. That's around 3v/2000a which would need to be converted to around 100v/60a. That's around 30x voltage boost.
I'm guessing no such boost converter exists but if you designed it from scratch, could it be made small and efficient enough for use in PEVs? Obviously it would need to be placed very close to the cell terminals due to the massive cables.
