You also need the battery to enable LUNs (SCSI card reader, etc.).  Can't boot to my CF card without LUNs enabled.
 
I don't think that shrink wrap will stop battery leakage, but I'm no expert.

Mech lead me to these.  However he still recommends the diode, but perhaps he can explain why.

That's interesting that you need LUNs enabled to use a CF card. I would ask mechy if he knows how to configure your SCSI/CF adapter to work without LUN's enabled.


You can boot without LUNs if you use a PCMCIA to CF card adapter.  If you want to use the CF card directly you need LUNs.
