I recently learned about this product after having just recently ordered my first mini split system, a 27k Mrcool 3 zone DIY.

The concept makes a lot of sense, all these new mini splits use a DC rectifier and then invert to a variable frequency 3 phase motor drive. YMGI has broken those functions out so you can provide straight DC supply.
What do you think the chances of hacking this into mini splits without the built in DC supply function?
First challenge would be physically getting a good tap onto the DC portion of the electronics in the outdoor unit, but then I don't know if there would be insurmountable hurdles in the electronics, i.e. will the rectifier disagree with batteries there and does the controller rely on any inputs from the rectifiers that confirm it's getting all it's power from the AC side.
