  This paper introduces a novel, high-intensity source of electron
antineutrinos from the production and subsequent decay of 8Li. When paired with
an existing ~1 kton scintillator-based detector, this <E_\nu>=6.4 MeV source
opens a wide range of possible searches for beyond standard model physics via
studies of the inverse beta decay interaction. In particular, the experimental
design described here has unprecedented sensitivity to electron antineutrino
disappearance at $\Delta m^2\sim$ 1 eV$^2$ and features the ability to
distinguish between the existence of zero, one, and two sterile neutrinos.
