Ted,
Without the DC-DC converter, the battery powered device will usually turn itself off when the battery voltage reaches ~11 Volts.
With the dc-dc converter, the device will still be getting 12 Volts when the battery voltage is 9Volts!, well past the permanent damage SOC.
Thanks for the explanation. That makes a good argument for big power users to have a battery monitor.
