Keep us posted on how you like the Tiny BMS, and on what type of display you will use in association with this BMS. Do you plan to use any additional relays that are triggered by the Tiny BMS to disconnect the solar panels or battery bank? Regards, Martin

Thanks for the reply. It looks like it was designed for the E-Bike trade, but also adaptable to off-grid solar use. I'm a little antiquated on all of this bluetooth and raspberry control of these devises. Not sure how I would be able to program the Energus BMS. Thanks, Martin

Hello, Did you ever go ahead and get one of the Energus BMS units? I'm thinking strongly about getting one also. European Quality looks good. Regards, Martin in Wyoming

Thank you for your suggestion. I have added a new picture of the proposed arrangement. At the Mid-Point connection where I am turning the corner I will use a Heavy Copper bar, probably 1/4" thick and 2" wide. On the opposite end I am planning to use the same material to connect all of the 8...

Here is an actual Cut & Paste photo of the proposed 48 volt Battery Pack consisting of 128 cells arranged in (Sets) of 8 cells Paralled, and then those 16 (Sets) placed in Series. My graphics are a bit primitive, I had to make several copies of the above picture, then cut them into strips and...

Yes, I have purchased Four of the Battery Packs that are pictured above. If you can click on the above picture, and then click on the magnified picture again, you can scroll through 11 different close-up photos of how the cells are currently arranged. This is one of those enlarged pictures...

BELAY my Last.. (Old Navy term for-Ignore what I just said..) I was definitely in the Fog on my previous description last nite.. Regards, Martin

Thank you for the suggestion, although I am not entirely up to speed on a couple of the terms. i.e. "turning the corner correctly", and "having lots of wires doing it". I propose having (8) cells in parallel using the standard bus bar connectors for that Amperage, and then connecting the Neg...

Yes, The price was a big part of the attraction. About $15 for each cell. If individual cells begin to weaken over the years, I figures I could reconfigure the (Sets) to 7 cells. Thereby not having to discard an entire 320Ah unit. Regards, Martin

This is my First attempt (Probably Second) at posting. I have watched numerous videos concerning various methods of hooking up LiFePO4 batteries. I have just purchased (4) of the below listed battery packs from Ebay. There are a total of 128 cells in my purchase. Each cell is 3.6 volts and 40Ah...
