Batman (Bruce Wayne) as the Green Lantern... ?

I know there was an Elseworlds one-shot where the ring chooses Batman instead of Hal Jordan, and I know Batman briefly puts on the ring during Green Lantern: Rebirth, but, I've got a few questions...

1.) When he takes off the ring during Rebirth, wasn't it due to the fact that he thought it would make him too powerful or something? I seem to recall reading somewhere that Batman would rival Hal Jordan as most powerful Green Lantern were he to wield the ring.

2.) I SWEAR I read somewhere that the ring originally considered/wanted Batman as its first choice. However, due to Batman having other obligations/being too powerful/declining the offer/something along those lines, the Ring moved on and chose someone else instead.

I can practically visualize the panels, as I seem to recall the ring visiting the Batcave before moving on. Am I just making this up, or was this actually from something? If it was from something... what was it? And what actually happened in it?

Thanks!

I'm pretty sure the ring actually wanted Super-man first.

I remember Hal giving Batman a taste of the ring. He became a Green Batman for a little while but then he started tripping balls and seeing his parents and had to take it off because he wasn't ready to get over'em.
