Using dc voltage steps requires energy = dqdv. Stepping directly back from 9V to 3V requires triple the energy. Phase shifts do not require nearly the energy input to accomplish. Sinewaves are direcly related to a rotating machine and so are better suited.

"I'm looking for to just use straight DC voltage only, no pulses or wave forms": I agree with the phase nature of the problem which implies a periodic waveform. You won't be able to do this with dc. Its phase is always 0 degrees.

You are repurposing + and - as numbers which makes interpretation difficult. + and - are unary operators, Then using 0,1,2 also allows -1,-2.

@Tito: The measurements for 18 AWG wire that you provide are inconsistent. 400 grams of wire is 38.5 m. 3.5 ohms of wire is 167 m. Please edit your question with more consistent, complete and accurate data.

The robots provide the food, clothing an shelter for every one. The wealthy have no one to sell to so that they become poor. Wait, Who is killing the poor? There is no need for money. everyone is happy and well fed. Wait, Where are the poor?

Soldering irons are very hot. Any resistor you touch with one will change in value. What is the temperature range that you are expecting the regulator to operate?
