I wonder if they are sturdy enough to stack 4-5 high?Or you can go in between and purchase a 16s kit and put it together yourself. Was considering this one from Luyuan which is a trusted seller. Can get it configured for a JK Inverter BMS.
I was wondering that myself but you would want them on separate shelves to begin with so that if you have to pull the bottom one you don't have to unstack all of them. Was thinking some kind of heavy duty metal shelving system like 4ft wide Dewalt one. People who get multiple PowerPros seem to have issues with spacing since they are designed to just be placed vertically on the floor more or less.I wonder if they are sturdy enough to stack 4-5 high?
why you dont want to mess with 100Ah small capacity?DIY or Powerpro is my preference. I don't want to mess with 100Ah's anymore although I don't mind having my one of them as an auxillary battery.
Just because to me each battery is something I'm going to give a bit of individual attention, check its interface and cell voltages, etc. and so for a big battery I can get 3x the capacity for the same amount of baby sitting.why you dont want to mess with 100Ah small capacity?
To me, at some point the compactness, simplicity, and flexibility of a pre-built 51.2v/100AH rack unit simply outweighs the cost differential. Everyone keeps telling me that they keep putting all these DIY systems together for next to nothing,
I don't have a problem lifting each cell one at a time into the bank.......but everytime I start adding up the stuff I want, the price difference drops dramatically. Not to mention the weight aspect of a 15KWH/300AH set of prismatics.
DIY every time for me, even if it cost $1000 more per 15kWh. I like the control of my DIY BMS to Inverter software and knowledge of how it all works.If you were to buy batteries today for your system, which would you buy and why?
Disagree. My DIY batteries come with a 5 minute SLA response time, 24/7, 365 days per year. If something ain't working, I would want to resolve it now, even if it's me in my pyjamas .... I hate trying to convince some spotty teenager that something is wrong with their product and they need to fix it.More expensive, but in theory, if warranty is needed, someone else is holding the bag.
Quite happy with my hand-varnished plywood box!the rack batteries would look good.

why manage 3 packs when you can manage 1for a big battery I can get 3x the capacity for the same amount of baby sitting.
It will be compact, like this.
After eight years with ihree iterations of DIY batteries and three different inverters I finally went with Pytes rack batteries. A lot of my motivation was the fact that I had been running those systems without a building permit and I finally wanted to have a UL listed system so I could pull a permit. The cost was close to $400 per kWh including the UL listed enclosure, compared to the DIY batteries which cost less than $100 per kWh.If you were to buy batteries today for your system, which would you buy and why?
It's good to have the option to get a permit if needed someday. I see alot of people say they will never get a permit, but unfortunately sometimes the AHJ forces you to get a permit or tear out your systemAfter eight years with ihree iterations of DIY batteries and three different inverters I finally went with Pytes rack batteries.
