I'm rooting for you! Also because i wanna do this too!
Just in case this doesn't work out for you, but you still want to tinker; your car puts out 12v from the cigarette lighter, and that's a common voltage for computer-style fans. You could build a cooling rig for your phone? That's definetly not as cool a project, but if it's the øjne that ends up happening, it would still be a fun story to tell.
I guess the Ukranians are training small unit tactics in Left 4 Dead, based on the russian loses.
Edit: and training defense in Orcs Must Die?
