    That looks INCREDIBLE..! Amazing work, loving the OCD and thanks for sharing the "warning"... Watching Will's videos where he wears safety glasses really enforced for me that it's a mistake most people only make once. :)

    The one I bought I can change the settings via Bluetooth. And also via the touch screen.
  • Post in thread: CATL 271ah, EVE 280ah or Lishen 272???

    Hey, I just ordered batteries from Amy 16 of the 272AH Lishen. Based on the feedback in the forum she has a good reputation and the EVE cells seem to be hard to find at the moment. No idea if I did the right thing, time will tell I guess. :)
  • Post in thread: Ordered 8x272ah Lishen Cells from Amy at Shenzhen Luyuan

    Mine was $78 per cell including bus bars and bolts. Not including freight which was $396 to Australia. All prices USD Anyone else had an update since ordering..? I haven't heard anything for 3 days, not sure what is normal and don't want to be impatient.. lol
  • Post in thread: Ordered 8x272ah Lishen Cells from Amy at Shenzhen Luyuan

    Just chatted with Amy and the delay was due to the braided bus bars. I've dropped them from the order and she is shipping today. Have to say she is super responsive and helpful. Hopefully this goes well, I've got a plan to augment our house system with 36KWH of batteries next. :-)

    Alibaba messaging worked for me :)
  • Post in thread: DALY Smart BMS question

    If you buy the Daly make sure you also buy the dodgy little "display panel" as well as the touch screen. The touch display is great for seeing state and also for doing most settings. But you can't "wake up" the BMS... The little display panel can. For a few dollars well worth it. Oh and on...

    Yay, my batteries shipped today. Amy sent through some photos and videos showing the voltage and resistance testing. Very excited. :)

    That document is absolutely brilliant..!!!! Thanks for sharing.
  • Post in thread: Australian dealer

    I've bought some second hand cells from Ian, he is very passionate and helpful. Happily messaging me via FB to assist with the setup. I did have some issues with the balancers but honestly may well have been me wiring it up wrong. I replaced the BMS and balancers with Daly as the ones he...

    I don't pretend to be an expert. But I also connect everything after the BMS

    Victron can do all that without canbus to batteries. Also reports live to the internet. I'm running it now with a DIY pack. Bits needed Color Control GX Smart Shunt Mulitiplis 2 Inverter Matt
  • Post in thread: Daly Touch Screen - Can you restart from it..?

    First of all, huge thanks to this amazing community, I've been lurking away, reading and learning and finally got my system built :) I made a mistake with the configuration of the Daly BMS and it shut down due to a low temperature event. I set it to +20c instead of -20c. And yep I know not...
  • Post in thread: DALY Smart BMS question

    No idea sorry :-( Maybe able to confirm when it arrives. But I believe it plugs into the "light" socket if that helps. There is another thread here with someone reporting they got the wake up shorting some pins.

    Anyone know if the new standards remove the requirement for the roof top isolator..? Matt
  • Post in thread: Daly Touch Screen - Can you restart from it..?

    Answering my own question thanks to the other thread :) In the settings change the time out to 15300 (or 65535) should disable the screen going to sleep. But more importantly adding the "display panel" that has a button can be used to wake up the BMS. Silly me for ordering it and thinking...

    I went with an aluminium box for a ute.
  • Post in thread: EVE 280AH enclosures? 96 units

    Answering my own question. Yes as long as it's extra low voltage. I've below 120v DC maximum.
