I have just completed my first battery. It is an 8s 24v system with 8 304ah EVE cells and a JK BMS (JK-B2A8S20P). It will be used together with an MPP Solar all-in-one to provide UPS functionality to my home lab. I live in an area where we get regular power outages and I was getting sick of replacing the lead acid batteries in my traditional UPSs every year or so. I am hoping this one will allow about 6-7 hours of runtime for my system and then, if needed, I can fire up the generator for a few hours to recharge.
I designed the cover(black) and separators (white) to provide a channel for the balance leads and to protect the battery from inadvertent shorts across the terminals and bus bars. They are 3d printed using PETG. I was lucky enough to order at the time when the displays just started to be offered with the BMS and, once I figured out I could remove the handlebar mount thingy I designed a panel mount for it. Also printed in PETG.

Many, many thanks to all the folks in this community who have provided so much information. I have only been a lurker up until now so you don't know that you helped my but you really did!
