Thanks for all the replies, though I guess I wasn't completely clear about the situation. You can't just go without an alternator just until you get out of the Mode C airspace. The FAA rule that lets you have a plane without ADS -B (or even a transponder, actually) is for planes that NEVER had

Be very careful with any kind of lithium batteries, including LiFePO4, in aircraft. I had a Ballistic EVO2 LiFePO4 battery in my aircraft for about 80 hours with no issues, but I have now removed it after the second of two significant incidents (one fatal) in Australia caused by LiFePO4
