Thanks for the thoughts. I'm thinking about redoing the power supplies for my 
T-bolts.
So, your comments are helpful.

May I ask where is the ICL7662 rare? Digikey has over 20K in various forms.

I've also heard that the 5V supply is not noise critical. For your minimum 
power goal,
I imagine that's why you used a switcher rather than lose up to 0.4A x 7V 
(2.8W) using
a linear 5V regular off the +12V line.
