Joaco, the subject of this thread is electricity as it relates to hi-fi, and here we discuss and theorize about particular problems and putative solutions; so you are right on track.
All regenerators have problems in common that +/- affect their use for hi-fi. Broadly speaking, at the minimum, the common problems are current limiting and self-noise/effects. I understand how a battery can help with both problems, but I still do not understand what it is that makes the pp DC/AC converter audibly acceptable. To me, this is the 5k question...
There has already been some discussion about using straight battery power. Given enough of it, and given components designed for it in the first place, I do believe this would take care of many of the problems we experience with our AC. I am not at all sure it would not open the door to new problems, however, and atmospheric charges and stray [noise] signals would remain in play. If we simply use the batteries to power DC/AC converters then we still need to know how to make an acceptable converter.
Best regards,
