Here is another thought: What about connecting the 12V and 5V from 2 different power supplies together in series to get 17V? The ground to the 110wall socket, on 1 PS, would have to be disabled right?

In this situation since I would be using the 5V rail can I put the load on the
3V rail and have the same effect?
