DISCLAIMER: I have no clue if this works IRL, but I will soon see. Please point out flaws if you see them.

This is for ORing some power together, normal/schottkey diodes get too hot and ideal diode ICs are too physically big for my application.

Don't forget the mosfet body diode, which is always present, if you like it or not.

Just realized I never thanked you, hurz. That indeed was the flaw, I knew there was something fishy about my design.
