Remember I've got those cells with the damaged/bent terminals. Trust me there's absolutely no way I'd be using them otherwise.

Yes, that is what I was talking about. The packs communicating together. Thanks.
The new seplos bms version 16 (with bluetooth and autoconfigure) can be included with the diy mason 280 kit.
I saw that they were about to release it and asked if the 4 kits I ordered could include the new version.
It was an additional 40$ for me.
Although i'm not sure whether it has additional cost if you order hasn't been handed over to the local shipping company (they had to request for the parcel to be shipped back, because they had just handed it over)

Can they work in parallel with the previous BMS version?

Which protocol do those BMS use for inverters communication?

they support a number of protocols ( pylontech being one of them ), also both rs485 and CANbus over the same port...
the last bit a bit plus to the older versions, where you needed to order a specific rs485 or the canbus version
Took me a while to come back to you but I asked it to seplos sales and this was their response:
"
V15 and V16 are compatible
The difference between the V15 and V16 is that the V16 can communicate with CAN and 485, the V15 cannot.The V15 also has no way to connect to Bluetooth
"

I've built my own battery rack, which has four shelves for two rows of 8 cells on each, same layout as in the Seplos.
I'd like to duplicate the compression used in the Seplos, does anyone know the length of the cells from the front plate to the back plate once compressed please?
I understand the foam is 3mm thick, not sure what EVA foam is but I have some 3mm Plastazote® LD33 superior closed cell foam on order.
I was going to use spring compression, but realised this will protrude from the front of the rack.

Can you tell me about your experience with DDP shipping from China? I have 17 EVE 280 cells on order from Gobel Power, shipped DDP to Saskatchewan likely to arrive in late January. Did you need to us a border broker or did the product just show up at your door? When I read Incoterms for DDP, it sounds like the seller is responsible for everything, right up to delivery at my door.
It just showed up at my door. I didn't have to do anything.

Its Epoxy Glass Fibre Sheet GRP G10 also known as FR4
I'm in the UK and I got mine from eBay although it doesn't have adhesive (I didn't want adhesive) https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/133036899692
You need to message the seller with dimensions and quantity, use Google translate as he replies in Spanish, I ordered 18 sheets at 206 x 175 x 1mm and with carriage it came to £36, it was delivered within a about a week.
You can also order them from Docan China, but shipping is expensive.

I need help, I have a Mason box too. I was completing the first discharge after bringing the battery up to 100%SOC. At one point the BMS just shut down (I assume that the undervoltage protection kicked in) now I can not get the BMS to turn on.
To bring the SOC back to 100% I had to charge the battery using my hobby chargers because the Inverter would not push a load through to the BMS to the batteries.
Also there is no voltage at the terminals, but there is a full charge at the maain battery terminals, so in the picture I have full voltage on the right side (the battery side of the Mosfets but zero voltage on the left.) Any help would be great!![IMG_20230121_043312[1].jpg](https://diysolarforum.com/data/attachments/130/130996-95a03219048fa13d758103f6e922c446.jpg "IMG_20230121_043312[1].jpg")
